I'm doing some research for my own knowledge/project because I wan't to know from those of you who are considering a cic retrofit or already have done it or had it come with their cars, what specifically sold you the most about it? as some of you know the upgrade might seem a bit pricey to some, but those who have done it sure feel like its well worth it. If i missed anything in the poll let me know post it here. Thanks for you help

I got a loaner earlier this week with CIC and I just loved how fast it was. Especially for entering destinations. I would really like to upgrade but not at the current price.
