Yes it is pretty nice. I like a nav screen and all, but OnStar Turn by Turn is much better for getting directions on the fly. You don't have to stop the car, you don't have to type anything and you can even describe to the operator where you want to go if you don't have the address. The directions are loaded to your car and act just like turn by turn in your nav. You just don't have the color map. I actually find it to be good enough to be a reason for subscribing to OnStar.

On Othe GM vehicles it uses the radio for your turn and distance indicators. The Camaro uses the DIC which is very nice.
