Essentially I am asking if the HDMI output on the VL2 will allow me to view the factory navigation system on a separate HDMI monitor? This would be the only system on the market to offer that functionality (as far as I can tell) and I would gladly cough up the money for that feature alone.

Here is the first raw video on overall responsiveness and operations of the VL2. This is LEX5VL model, but idea is the same

Just a heads up- there is an app called AutoTether that could possibly connect your phone to this automatically through Bluetooth. It can connect this and any other Wi-Fi enabled device automatically. I am unfortunately/hopefully moving to a Lexus next and will probably jump on this for whatever model I get. The upgraded hardware is key and kind of a no brainer, and you won't need to mirror your phone. Good stuff

I wanted to know as the GROM Box gets better (full production/non beta) is it worth the money to upgrade the car to the Bose/Nav setup or wait for a potential solution for non nav users?
This is an exciting product and well needed.
My intentions are to add the car play like features to the coupe along with upgraded audio.

I recently purchased a Non-Nav 2014 G37/Q60.

Bad Video Quality
I just installed this in my g37 w nav and the video quality is very bad. In the menus everything is very washed out and text is illegible. It's basically unusable in this state.

@Gromaudio Have you added a touch screen functionality to the non-nav VLine set up? Or will we have to use the scroll wheel. Also, any chance of getting the APTX codec for bluetooth streaming over AD2P?

Yes will post a video of it working in few days. AptX will not be supported. We will add AAC and MP3 which are open and supported by most phones.
