Thought of that and checked. Not in the SPAM folder for the account associated with my 1st86 contact info. I'm sending him an email for clarification.

Don't really care about BeSpoke just want to make sure I'm not missing other opportunities.

I got that email about an hour after I received one from the Regional Manager saying cars should be allocated to dealers by the end of the week and they should have our VINs then.

Also, not getting the BeSpoke.

I just got the email too, def BeSpoke is nicer looking touchscreen unit I will say..

Also I think it it is more power than standard unit.

Android is to come from what I hear.

Yea, Korey resent it. He and I had a discussion about it because I wanted to let him know there were several 1st86ers that did not receive it so he wanted to re-issue.

If it had true NAV not requiring a smartphone, I'd be tempted, but the current "routing" combined with iPhone requirements (supposedly Android coming) makes it a "no want" for me, particularly at this price point.

I got the e-mail, but I'm not getting the BeSpoke. It's just not worth it. I already have a double DIN head unit that does basically the same thing, uses my IPhone as the navigation unit. I paid a whopping $300 for it, and that will be going in my car.

I agree. The price just seems way out of line for what you are getting, in particular since it includes a credit for the stock headunit.

Getting one installed in mine today. Installed price is confirmed $845. The reason I'm buying this one rather than aftermarket is the factory look fit and finish. Other's come "close" but do not look 100% factory. Plus, this unit will allow me to continue to use the factory usb and aux cable inputs.
