I have a 2004 accord with Navi. It works quite well, though I have nothing
much to compare it to except a few rentals that have had some pretty klutzy
units.

Not to me. Unless you have a specific need; it's an expensive
option that may not have residual value when it comes time to sell/trade
teh car.


> 2) Simlar question for the XM radio?

Factory installed XM works. The accessory XM not so much, the
antenna is mounted on the upper, right corner of the windshield.
Sometimes there is a problem with reception when driving north or west
(hides the antenna from the southern sky.)

The navi is slick; the XM antenna on the windshield is hooky
looking.
