I'd suggest getting nav, if for no other reason that it comes with voice command, which is great. If you think you'd ever want sat radio down the road, get sat radio prep ($75) or you won't be able to do it later.

NAV also has force feed back iDrive! and MP3 capability (for older E60s I think as of 2006 all will get MP3 so that doesnt matter)

Hahah force feedback iDrive. Its when you run out of menu's to turn it stops turning.

Like say theres 4 options on the iDrive menu you can turn 4 times to the right and then the iDrive will get "stuck" and you cant turn anymore indicating you have ran out of options. Then turn 4 times to the left back to square 1 and it will get "stuck" again.

The iDrive knob also gives back a tactile "click" as you spin the dial past choices...
