wat do you guys think??? I'm in need of Navigation and better head unit as well. I like this one the best out of other so far. Prett good price with lots of features. Crutchfield sells this at $1699, and eBay is around $1400. To me, $300 is a BIG difference. Installation will be done by me.
thats a good one to go with or pioneer has the D2 which has navigation its 1699 as well. Really either way you would be good.
i kept hear people complaining about pioneer navigation. They say that they can't alter route nor change setting when vehicle is moving.
ummmmmmmm...!!! all navi do that?? can u think str8?? well my gf's stock rx 300 does that on it's navi . so i'm guessin it does on all if ur car is moving then it won't change or etc cause that distraces u...
amol has some navigation software on his laptop which will be incorporated into his car pc... that can be changed when moving... also my friend's maxima has GPS that can be changed when moving
I was going to bring up the car pc as well, alot of people talk about buying a nav system for $1500 +, but a car pc can be built for around $1100 and you get so much more with the PC.
my friends mercedes has nav which we always change while en route and it also recalculates the distance and directions
I always recommend people go to a local stereo shop and see how low they can go on prices before buying off of Ebay. Crutchfield is great since they warranty all their products and have great customer support but you can get the same bonuses at a local shop. Most salesman at Hifi Buys/Tweeter or wherever earn commission and can be flexible on pricing in order to make the sale. Print out the item for sale on a legit website (not Ebay) and see how close they can get on the price. In my case they couldnt match the price of my head unit online, but could match the price plus shipping. Other than that I dont know anything about navigation systems in cars, I'm old fashioned and have a map and a compass in the mirror.
car pc is very tempted... i should definately check out amol's car. I'll shop for new laptop that i can use it as car pc instead of buying just nav unit.
