PDC on the screen is very useful. I like to sit low in the car and navigating tight spaces is super easy. Plus it does warn you if a pedestrian walks behind you (eg in a parking lot). Frankly, I use PDC more than the navi.

It just nice to have all the entertainment info, settings, etc. on the big screen. Like others said. Depending on your use of the car, you may not miss it.

Biggest disadvantage is another thing that creaks and rattles in some cars...
