I figure I will be too old for my Z when I can no longer get myself in and out of the car.

Also, the Z isn't really that cheap anymore. Mine cost over $40k before I added new tires, backup camera, invisible bra, SS brake lines, etc. I figure I am in the low end of Porsche territory now.

Most of all, who cares what anyone thinks. I am very happy with my Z and I don't give a $#%@ what anyone else thinks aobut it.
you added a camera to the OEM nav?

I'm interested too. I have been waiting for someone to add the backup camera to the oem navigation.

Yes I did. It's great.

I had a local mod shop do it. I used the new NavTool for the 2010 Z to provide the interface. I am sure it cost more using the mod shop I did (they generally do very high end sports car work), but the job is perfect. It is invisible (the NavTool is behind the dash, where it has to be according to the installers). The camera is mounted above and to the left of the license plate. All in all, it looks and feels like it was a factory option.
