I have seen interior pictures showing the navigation screen as a retractable device (slides up and down within the center console). When extending in a quiet cabin, do the motors sound quiet or are they loud and "cheap" sounding?

Second, when extended, is the eye drawn to them while driving? Having the nav system up high prevents the driver from having to look down and away from the window, but being extended well above the dash seems extreme and distracting, given the brightness of the screen and colors.

Drive it at night and compare the questions - is the Nav system too bright at night (day / night illumination)?

The motor extending up and down is very quiet, very little noise. CTS wagon was like that too.
The nav doesnt extend that high up to where it blocks vision enough to really matter. Its high enough to glance at it and see what it going on.
in the SRX, there is a night display and a day display, and it changes by itself.

Bring it to my house. I'd love to compare and contrast it to my mother's Audi Q5 3.2. Honestly, I don't know how a car can get any better than that thing. That is the best car I have ever driven.

It would have to be spur of the moment since my mom's work schedule changes often. We'll chat though, I have your number.

I'd be interested in real world mileage, headroom for people over 6', and stability during higher speed lane changes.
