2009 vs 2010?

It is easy to install, would cost the same as replacement air filter maintenance on a 2010 or you could do it yourself.

The roadster seats have a cooling unit built into the back of the seat - there was a thread about trying to swap, but I think it was determined too hard. My memory says they are different from the Touring seats in other ways, but I can't find a reference.

The seats are perforated leather, so you could call that vented, but there is no active cooling in the coupe.

I don't believe the functionality is significantly different - I glanced over the 2009 and 2010 Nav manuals, but they got way too boring to compare actual details.

Here's is a review of the 2010, but a lot of the features are in the 2009.

Here is a list of 2010 enhancements:
I forgot the A2DP support for bluetooth streaming audio.

The 2009 and 2010 have the same 9.3GB MusicBox functionality with onboard GraceNote database. Sadly you can only load music by playing regular audio CDs which are then compressed onto the hard drive by the system. MP3 CDs, and other media (CF or USB HD) can not be loaded. I guess Audio DVDs would work as well.

However, if your album is not in GraceNote, you can use a PC and a CF (2009) or USB HD (2010) to transfer album information and load onto your PC. Also, you can manually edit in the car.

Your most welcome

The 2010 upgrades to Nav/Audio were my second biggest concern when getting a 2009 (the oil consumption was first), but as long as the Nissan backup camera can be made to work, I am fine with the features in the 2009. With my eBay 80GB iPod, access to all my music is quick and easy and updating just requires a PC sync. I would like 4x resolution, but I can always use my iPad Nav, and bluetooth streaming would be nice for Pandora/Internet radio, but my city is Edge right now, so I don't use them anyway.

If you have an iPhone or iPod Touch, a Scosche PassPort or something similar will charge your device and let you access your music on the 2009 without a problem.
