Bought this from Amazon. Would totally reccommend it.

I am looking into buying a car navigation system (GPS) but am totally clueless as to what features to look for, as well as what brands/models/prices are "good". Any advice? Any reputable websites or stores that might also be able to help?

How about Garmin StreetPilot c550? It is very easy to use right out of the Box. You can spend a fortune on these things and get all these options that you will never use. The screens are easy to navigate and the voice is not so loud to become annoyingwhen giving dircection. And it is on sale now, a decent deal for it is only $350 instead of $500.

i need a new gps for my car, and dont know what choice to get. All i care about is the quality of which is better, and the picture image also.

Garmin is a best gps for car, Garmin has a simple controls - simply touch the color screen to enter a destination, has a turn-by-turn voice directions, 2-D or 3-D maps and more feature.

I suggestion a Garmin nuvi model is a 255W, 760.

255W: has text-to-speech, you get turn by turn spoken directions with the real names of streets (e.g. "turn left in 50 feet at Nebraska Way", rather than merely "turn left in 50 feet"), 4.3-Inch diagonal touch screen color display, etc.
