i will be talking to them about the pricing when i go

maybe the rep just made a mistake over the phone

i thought that sounded really high priced

do you know if it is fm modulated or does it add a ipod button to the screen

or do you just tune to a certain station to hear it

$even $500 seems steep for just a fm modulator

It is not FM modulated. Comes up on touch screen. Uses the fibre optics. Still.....$1600.00 is BS.

$800 seems like BS too since a lot of cars have it standard these days, but if it integrates on the toiuch screen it may be worth it.

The XF has it already integrated and I think the 2009 XK will also.

Jaguar never really has been on the cutting edge of late. Red headed stepchild of Ford is the cause for that.

well i dropped the car off last night and the guy i talked to on the phone was an idiot

the ipod interface is $275 plus about $200 to install it

so way less then the $1600 they originally said

That is great. I need to make sure I negotiate this as part of my deal... just waiting for mid March when the new incentives show up...

Yep....we just got them last week. Installed one and it is good.

Can you share the part number? I want to have it handy for when I got to the dealer... Sales guy mentioned that it was not available (but coming) when I took the test drive...

Thank you!

I can look for it tomorrow. Incidentally, it will charge the ipod, but not the iphone. It will play the music from both.

You have to use full control from the ipod, but like I said it is not FM. It comes through stereo, only on the screen will say AUX. It also has to be programmed by dealer to add auxillary input to screen. Not plug and play.
