When I was in high school, I thought it was kinda silly the way these girls I knew did their little routines as cheerleaders.

Fake or not, posed or not, gratuitous or not, I have come to fully appreciate the aesthetic and artistic value of such things.

This ad makes me want to buy another one. BTW, this product rocks. I love mine.

I've got this one and it's not the compromise that people think it would be (as a single DIN). I have less than perfect vision and I can see everything just fine. The map shows street name, distance to and type and direction of turn in large blocks at the bottom. In the upper left, in much smaller but still easily visible print is a box that shows distance to destination and ETA. The voice commands can be disabled and the volume is adjustable separately. I set mine to attenuate the music and play the voice commands loudly. The only annoyance is that it announces freeway exchanges that you DON"T change on. eg, "in 1/2 mile, continue on 101N". Maybe a firmware update will fix that.

The built in HDD for music is really convenient.

The Sirius is spotty. Mine cuts in and out but that could probably be fixed by relocating my antenna. Certainly not an issue with the receiver.

The bluetooth attachment is worthless. Don't get it.

The IPOD attachment works fine but the HDD is so much more convenient. The IPOD interface is not the easiest to use.

The DVD player is nice for passengers of course. I don't get a lot of use out of it.

The traffic updates and auto reroute feature are my favorite parts.

The only downside to the single DIN map is actually address entry. There are a LOT of clever shortcuts built in to ease the pain and otherwise the NAV is extremely useful and convenient.

My best friend thinks the arched back thing is done so guys can get excited about peeing in her butt. j/k BTW, JVC could have picked a million chicks that look better than the one in the picture. She looks a little too old and hard for me. Kinda like a "used" car with too many miles on it that wasn't maintained as well as it should have been.

Finally, an answer that makes sense to me.

This is the radio that we are installing for free on every 2007 Elise in stock. It's a really nice unit that also has the rear camera capability which several Exige S buyers have opted for.

While perhaps not ideal for every car, for the Elise, this works very well.

I think she needs to let some air out of the lumbar support. In other words, that car must be a 2005.

Radios? How do you feel about arched backs?
I'm married. I have no comment until I speak to my attorney.

The arch is too posed for me, but I'm not complaining. The model, well, they could have done better. But again with the not complaining. What product were they selling again? All I remember is curvy girl, curvy car...

that's a great picture! Still wouldn't hurt to have a little more hip action. She's hiding her lack of hips with her hands. LOL
good lord, I wish I were that top...
