The updated bus system offers data transfer improvements for many interior components so was not designed specifically for the new nav radio. Another new feature for '08 is Sirius Satellite streaming which may have been another reason for the change.

Note that what is listed so far is just a partial list of what's coming for 2008, although what I have revealed so far comprises most of the major feature changes. I will be adding more to the list in the months ahead. I'm not sure what interior/exterior design improvements or changes that are planned, if any. The 300 is in its 4th year of a 5 or 6 year run so they are not going to get too carried away but overall the changes will be worthwhile and noticeable.
