I am trying to decide on which way to buy an LE..I like the LE over the SL because of the wheels, memory seats etc....but since in NJ there is a 7% sales tax,300 doc fees and over 100 in registration the price of the LE, after discounts, will go over an additional $3000...so here is the question if you have to give up something in order to bring the price down, would you give up the AWD or the Navigation .....I would like to have both and it will make the LE easier to find in just about any stock...but....you know the "but"....I prefer the AWD since in my opinion a Navigation is for those that travel quite a bit..besides in my case my wife is really good with maps and directions...lolThank you all for your help....incidentally either option whne eliminate will bring the price down about $1800 (MSRP that is)

That's a no brainer....go for the AWD. You get buy a TomTom gps for $100 down the line if you need one, but you can never add AWD! NJ gets snow...you'll need it:)

Agree. I have one portable GPS and just move it between my Maxima and Mo depending on where it is needed on any given day.

When the Nissan salesman told me how much the nav system was when I was buying my SE back in 04, even he admitted `You can buy a LOT of maps for that.'

And we love the AWD.

I would definitely keep the AWD, pick up a potable GPS for cheap! Plus a whole lot of anything else with the savings.

I bought the 09 Merlot LE AWD W/O Nav.. I have the Bose W/ Ipod hook up, Dual Sunroof, Leather Heated, Memory Seats, ect... I also had a Garmin from my 05, so I didn't see the need for the Nav system

Absolutely love it... Quite spoiled now
