To navigate, you need to press your finger on the windshield and drag. Left, Right, Fast, Slow. Tapping on the windshield brings up a menu that displays mileage, weather, and YouTube videos. Via the on board GPS, Google Maps displays are displayed in real time on the windshield and their opacity can be adjusted.

I would laugh if they came out with a U2 edition, though having a Green Day edition may work with Scions. (Worth1000.com needs to have a Photoshop contest on this topic.)

Yes, a bit pricey then other car models, but Apple people want to pay more for these products. Oh, and it will probably be a couple of months before someone hacks into the engine, unlocks the german software and makes it into a Ford.
