Or the AMG models, or the hybrid versions of various Japanese cars, or, or... 
If they introduced the nav and it turned out it had a glitch, GM would be crucified by the public and press for never "learning their lesson."
If they waited until the midyear to introduce the whole car with nav, they'd be prolonging the stay of old models. And then they'd be spurned by the press and public.

Your kind of missing the point. Its a NAVIGATION SYSTEM, not anti-matter warp drive engines. Whats to iron out?
I think I made it clear I am a supporter, not a hater of Detroit. I have purchase serveral American cars, and been very pleased with them. If there is any flaw in my logic, it is my assumption that everyone would want navigation. I would certainly expect it in a $40k car. But perhaps that is not a desireable feature in the over 50 set.
