I didn’t get a picture but it was more or less the model pictured here. The radio was showing a bunch of stuff they didn’t want to see, turns out it was stuck on “demo mode” and listing a bunch of features. The interface was unintuitive but luckily he kept a manual, so I navigated through the settings menu and turned off the demo. Sorted.

    Man, I miss the old style standardized radio slots you just could put in any fancy device you liked, without having to pay 1000s of Euros for the car manufacturer’s premium package just to get decent, but still somehow crappy entertainment stuff.

      For real. And really what you’re getting with the trim upgrade is the ability the to plug in your phone and use Android/Apple Auto for the low price of $800 or more. There should really be anti-bundling laws to prevent it.

      It bugs the hell out of me when these newer radios don’t have a volume dial. And anything with on screen buttons only is just asking for trouble.
