For all of the talk about the Holden Commodore being a "World Car," it is not. It is an Australian car that GM exports to other parts of the World. The lack of built-in navigation is a result of Holden engineering decisions. The G8 will not have an in-dash navigation system until the car is reengineered to accommodate it.

With the price of fuel through the roof and the USA-AUS dollar exchange rate through the floor, the prospects of a next-generation G8 are dim. We will likely never see a G8 with built-in navigation.
