I have Sync 2 and it is querky, not enough to make me want to upgrade to sync 3.

By far the worst system I have ever seen in a 50k car. Hence the lawsuits.

Sync 3 is miles ahead of 2 and I mean miles. It's like they actually tried to give you an infotainment center that works. Pretty amazing for 50/60k cars right. My car fell under the class action suit since it was an early 13. So maybe it was worse I dunno. My dads 2015 mustang seemed to work a little better then mine. But my sister has a 2015 fusion and it's absolute s*** in her car too.

Someone needs to snag it

Jordan should snag it.....

Lol I don't need that bad juju. Cars still in one piece and honestly isn't ragged edge either! I've seen the car a few times on Facebook. Pretty impressive build. Imo someone else's big build is much more of a liability than a blessing..

If it was my daily then I might have issues with it in my SHO.  I have Sync 2 in my ST and daily that.  No problems.  I think the more tech involved these infotainment centers the worse off we are.  The upgrade to Sync 3 is $1000.  $1000 is $1000 closer to a X35 and almost the stand alone kit in my car.  My priorities are different I guess.

I looked into it myself on the old sho. I just didnt think the 1k was worth it. I'd rather go fast and turn the radio off lol. The edge is slow so I have time to care about sound systems and navigations haha. Also the edge has CarPlay I think that makes it much better as well. But even the sony system in the edge is miles better then the sho.

2015 SHO and the Sync 2 works fine for me. The two things I do dislike are the touch screen and its lack of touch and the the Nav sucks. I use my phone with Google maps/Waze and dont touch the screen too much so its not a deal breaker.

However the SHO has 2 USB ports that you can insert TWO usb thumb drives. Thats a lot of music and you can switch between them easy. It streams MP3's fine and the CDs sound great. Yeah I still use them.

I agree with most you said. I have no problem with my sync 2. In comparison to my new C7, the GM system sucks. Although some of it may be my short memory when switching between cars I have to relearn everything every time. I keep over 150 songs on a WIN created playlist on the thumb drives. The GM system can't handle the higher numbers which is annoying.

Has anyone heard of this new product that plugs into the ODB port which enables NAVI on a non-nav vehicle!! Dunno. Z

Looks like for $500 it'll do what my phone does for free. Granted my phone only has a 6" screen, not 8", but I'm OK with that.

I just used Forscan and unlocked my Navi.  I had get a SD card, but it was worth my time and money.

Probably on your ST! Navi cannot be enabled through Forscan on a SHO! Z

[SM105K]

Yes on my SHO.  It didn't come factory with the Navi unlocked.  My ST did. 

I used this exact video to unlock the Navigation in the my SHO.  It was one of the first Forscan mods I did to the SHO.

I can post my window sticker that says it doesn't have navigation, and I can post a picture of my functional navigation (that I hacked using the video and Forscan) with today's time and date if you would like.

I spoke about it here back in February.
