Thanks. I got a mid 2009 build car with CCC. I think they changed over about 2~3 months after my car was built. i don't think I'd bother to change. I use a 64GB USB drive with MP3's which works fine for my music needs. I don't like the navigation system in my car, but I suspect I'd still be disappointed with the CIC. I find its got really bad route planning and a general lack of features.
