Thanks Guys, great info. Not sure why, but I'm not getting "real-time" updates when you guys post to this thread. I just checked, and I have it set for "instant email notification." Weird.

You threw me for a loop, as I checked everywhere in the arm rest, and thought I was going nuts as I couldn't find the USB port.

I called my local MB dealership, and they said the iPod "package" was $299, which comes with the cable, and something that connects to the back of the system. They want to charge me an additional $180 for installing it - CROOKS!

I just listen to AM radio anyway (I like listening, and often disagreeing with the news), but at some point I gotta stretch the muscles of the Harmon Kardon Logic 7 system.

My system denotes "Dolby Digital, DTS," etc., - does that mean if I put in an actual DVD, it'll play a movie on the nav screen? I tried putting a DVD in the center console, but for some odd reason it would not insert into any of the 5-6disc slots.

Oh, if only I had the books....

BTW, the EuroCharged ECU programmer should arrive by 10:30 this morning. Can't wait to program it and be ripping into my tires!

San Jose area. Where are the other folks? Just went to get gas (had to find a stupid errand to run to drive the new EU tune). WOW, this is nuts.

I AM SO LUCKY! made a left after getting gas, and there was a cop there. I hit 2nd and went ***** to the wall, and realized he was across the street at 55mph (seemed like milliseconds). He apparently didn't have it out for me.

WOW, this car is nuts-fast now. reminds me of an old GTO I had with cam, tune, etc., putting 550HP to the crank.

Off to buy a PCMCIA card - will any work for the center dash, or must I buy a MB card?

why can't I find a "worthy opponent" now that this car is tuned? Want to "lay waste" to a "M" car.

Best car I've ever owned - love it. Used to own an E39 M5, 2006 GTO (tuned to the hilt), 540i, S4, Audi 2.7T tuned. We are now officially an MB house - wife drive an "ML" SUV...
