Previous Owner Saved Music on HDD
When you bought your car used, did the previous owner still have all their nav, phone, addresses and music saved? I bought my 600 and everything was still on there! Quite the interesting music selection
Every Michael Buble CD
Frank Sinatra
Lots of opera music
Oldies compliations
Johnny Cash
Billy Joel
Lots of classical italian music
Christmas albums
Going through their music and previous GPS destinations really paints a picture of who owned the car before you. Mine really liked the Casinos and steak houses. So what did you guys find?

Every pre owned car equipped with nav I've gotten in has had the previous owners' info still in there, even home address. 
It always surprises me how the owner forgets to erase everything, and how it is not standard protocol for dealerships to wipe the cars clean of personal info themselves.

Gee, except for many of the Billy Joel and Michael Buble songs, I would have loved that car! Casinos and steakhouses, that's my kind of guy. Thanks for pre-entering all that info! 
It is a good point to erase your personal data from the car, but as far as music who cares. If the new owner doesn't like it, he can erase it.
The one thing I have done is not entered my home address in the nav system. I simply entered an address in my town center. So if someone steals the car they don't know my home address (unless they can find the hidden registration certificate).
