I have a 2015 mx-5 grand touring with retractable hardtop that doesn't have blue tooth or navigation, although I know it was available. Any thoughts, ideas, etc. on if, and if so, how to, add blue tooth and navigation?

You could use a Bluetooth reciever to your oem aux port

For navigation I think you'll have to change the head unit

I’m a fan of using aftermarket headunits for these features versus OEM. Most tend to be more flexible in terms of expandability and updates. I use my phone for nav via Bluetooth in my Miata this way.
I recently installed a double DIN Sony unit with Apple CarPlay in my wife’s car and the display works just as her phone. It was a very clean installation, very OE looking and works with her steering wheel controls, plus Siri for hands-free operations.
Google Maps works great on it. I have considered adding the same one to my car. I would think Android versions of a similar headunit would work just as well.
I too prefer not to have built-in navigation. The maps get dated and I think Mazda only gives you one free update before you have to start paying, at least that’s how it was in my Mazda6.
I love Apple CarPlay built in to my Soul. I just get in and my phone automatically links from my pocket. I don’t have to do anything else. Maps come right up on the 8” screen on occasions where I need navigation, the maps are the most current available at no cost to me.
I would buy a decent, entry-level Kenwood with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto built in and skip the more expensive navigation versions. Here’s one example with CarPlay and Bluetooth: https://www.sonicelectronix.com/item...-DDX6704S.html
No todo que es oro brilla.
I bought my wife the Sony unit because it has a knob for volume control. It works great in here RAV4 and she uses the voice controls a lot while on customer appointments.
