The E85/E86 Z4 has the MKIV nav. It uses the 'High' version of the maps.

I keep looking online but it's really hard to even find the official maps for purchase. Plenty of places are selling copies of the discs, but I'm not about to pay someone else for a copy, I'd rather make my own, but I can never find what I need to do that.

edit: finally found the official source http://store.bmwgpsmaps.com

Europe? No Problem. Downloaded a 2013 in 20 min for a family member.
USA east or west? I was searching for month to find a US high maps. So far no luck at all! Not even 2012, 11, 10.....
Downloaded several torrents/ sources but none was working, not US maps or named wrong (other versions)

Since my maps were 2004, one Forum member shared his 2007 maps with me and I'm very thankful for that!
At least the GPS knows the street to my neighborhood now.

Just to the next intersection, then I'm again in the green.

If a map doesnt have highways that have been there for over 50 years, than a new map won't do much more.

Loneliest Road in America doesn't exist according to the map.

BMW keeps changing map providers. It used to be navteq, now I think it's TomTom

You can buy the latest map discs from BMW here

There's usually a new set every year.

Just an FYI for anyone looking, the BMW North America 2014 HIGH dvds are out there if you know where to find such things using the googles.

+1 That is the best price I've ever seen for new maps ever, in the world of BMW and M-B map updates.

Found lots on eBay for $10 per disc, or $15 for 2 disc set.
Just bought West region.
Hopefully TomTom maps are better.
The 2010 maps have a very weak concept of cities and towns.

I'd rather give $200 to BMW then 10$ to some kid selling DVDs burned on a hand-me-down MacBook.

The 2006 and 2010 maps have been so crappy, they're barely worth $10.
Maybe it's the firmware. We'll see how it does with the TomTom maps.
Here in SoCal, it has only the vaguest idea of what city you're in.
And when you punch in a destination city, it gives you 2 or more ambiguous choices.
If you pick the wrong one, it takes you to the wrong place.
I'm tired of it getting me lost.
