I am looking at a 2001 E class, with the COMAND system. I was wondering what the general opinion of this system is - is it a decent navigation system? The car is not local so I cannot look at it first hand. The only navigation system I have used is one from a 2005 BMW M3 which was DVD based, and it worked rather nicely.
Is the software expensive to update?
Does the navigation media go in the trunk or in the head unit? Will the head unit play audio CDs up front, or only in the 6 disc changer in the trunk?
Thanks, Jeff
