EK Console with Navi

So I was browsin some pics on a website and I came across this pic and I thought I would share it with the rest of you guys. I've never seen it before and I was amazed. Does anyone know what car this came standard on? Must be from Erurope of Japan Right? Anyone know where I could get my hands on one of these?Cost?

If people have seen this already don't crap on the thread cause it's not necessary.

Every hardcore ek owner has seen it..

Few to none have installed it..

Why?

System in Kanji , No DVD Navi for north america, and super duper pain in the **** to get working properly.

the navigation system will not control any of the climate control, that is still done with regular buttons and dials.

why coldn't you replace the navi system with an LCD screen or something. give you the aftermarket capabilities with a stock subtle look.

Thanks for the replys guys. I just wanted get some info on the system. Unfortunatley, since the navi system isn't compatable with a north american system it just won't be woth getting one. It sure does look great though, I guess I'll be keeping the stock console for now.

well what good is JDM navi when we live in CANADA. i say the console itself is a good buy if you can fab a screen into it.

the system will work matter of fact i am looking for one to put into my little project,
all that u have to do is plug and play for my setup since i have the jdm harness and everything as for the navi to work it self another guy with a nsx knows how to do the mods he said he will do it for me its just some basic work.

but in reality it will not work with a north american wiring harness.

actually some people with mad tite electronix skeelz have gotten the nav to work by creating map files and editing the navi's software... costly but DOPE!!!!

only thing i dont like about that unit is when u pull out the remote control it looks like someone stole a piece of your system.
also no thats not a standard double din its waaay smaller.
