Hi All,
Well, I finally order my 530i, ED, delivery July 18th
. It seems like having the Euro Nav Disk is a "must have". However, paying $160 for one trip seems unreasonable. Is there anybody willing to sell or loan me the disk. It would be MUCH appreciated! If not, I guess I'd have to fork out the $160 
(what a scam!) Thank you.

I sold mine after its first use for $100 last year. But you might also try these guys, since they have a section on European delivery.

Use Emule and search for 2005-2, Navteq, Navtech, or e60 and sort by size. You'll find the euro one there. As for the USA one... I'm still searching. It's rediculous that we have to pay for updates on a 65k car, let alone pay over $200 bux for it. This should be included in the regular maintence IMHO.

[/quote]My complaint isn't so much as to the cost of the US Nav Disks since that would be used daily. It's the fact that for ED, it's a one time deal for many people. Why couldn't they loan or rent a disc at Munich instead of sell a disk for $160?
