The factory nav in interchangeable from 05 to 13. There are differences between the years will later years coming with steering wheels controls and later you get an USB port and input port in the console. To install any nav into a non nav car you need to add a GM GPS antenna along with the radio. After it is installed the radio has to be paired to the vehicle VIN by a tech II. I do not know of any other scanner that will pair the radio to the VIN. I have my own Tech II and do not know what people charge to do a basic 5 min job.

So if I did make the swap I’m not sure that I would need to add too much more to what I already have other than the screen and the pairing.

As far as track mode, when I'm on the track I hope I already know where the next turn is!
