In anticipation of the R56 and thinking of optoins(since order guides aren't avialable yet) I wanted to know how both the basic and Hi Fi systems stack u[ against one another and if the Hi Fi is worth the investment??? I love listeninig to music, do it all the time, and it's nice to have a crisp sounding stereo w/ a tad of thump.

 

most car stereo enthusiasts would still probably yank it all out regardless
and start over.

 

Remember that replacing / upgrading the new car will be much more difficult - at least for the head unit - since it is integrated to the center console! So it would be sensible to be as sure as possible that you get enough from the factory
