It was a must-have for me when I was shopping and I love it.
Also i-drive cars tend to be loaded with other options as well. High on my list were heated seats, individual audio and EDC. Cars that had these all had i-drive.
As for nav making the car dated, I think that's total bullshit, the 2009+ i-drive is a beautiful system and I would imagine it'll be top-tier easily for the next 5-6 years. I'll admit, the nav in a ZR1, or even the nav in my dad's Continental GT speed is really sad looking. However for the units in our cars, it'll probably take at least a decade before it really looks dated, and by then we'll have traded up to other cars a few times so who cares.
