I didn't have to take my eyes off the road anytime even when using navigation. Active steering is amazing inasmuch as it eliminates the differences of steering resistance between slow and fastest speeds. It does not, as some people have mentioned, take steering feel away. Just the opposite, in fact. The new I-drive is terrific, and so much more intuitive than the 2009 model. I also think that the premium HK Logic 7 audio system has been upgraded in the 2010 model year. Vastly improved from the system I auditioned in a 2009 5.0 just two weeks ago..with the same settings.
