Good choice...we have an Alpine nav in our lancer and it is light years beyond the BRZs nav. The BRZ system reminds me of the Garmin display/layout.
I was at an auto show right after I got my BRZ and I paid close attention to the other companies units. Considering only standard units the BRZ isn't awful hyundai's maps felt small, Ford's interface isn't big enough (felt it'd be hard to touch while driving), Acura and Chrysler have cartoon looking maps, Audi has the nicest looking maps, the GM interface and maps seem really good quality. *2 cents*
I don't use mine a lot, when I do I'm on major highways so I don't tend to lose signal, my biggest issues were that putting in an address can't be done on the fly (even if there is a passenger) and when you arrive it doesn't automatically end or give you the option to shut off the directionals (in one parking garage the fucking thing wouldn't shut up so I actually turned the car off just to cancel it out).
