i like the pioneer unit cus it will give you dynamic readouts of speed cornering forces and acceleration... as well as tach signals... no more gagues in the dash... who needs em any way??? it is xm ready... just buy the xm box and the antenna... not to metion you can run rear moniters on it while using the navigation... add a cd/dvd changer and it still dont cost as much as the kenwood unit...

the pioneer will fit in like any after market deck... the brain will fit under the front seat or under the back seat... as long as no one sits on it and you dont have any leaks...wiring is a little more intense than a norman deck and amp...

the kenwood unit will require some custom work... to fit the screan in where the head unit used to go...as far as the dvd navagation brain i dont know how big that unit is so i cant say...

The N1 looks like an awesome head unit. Once I get most of the stuff I have planned for my car I am going to look into getting one (should be cheaper by then too).

LOL! Yeah I'm sure that the gps company records your speed and just hands that info over to the police. noob.

not to mention so they do record your speed and how many times you drifted around the corner... they will never know what kind of car it is or who is driving it or if the unit was stolen or not... it is not a 2 way tracking system... for that it would have to send and receive coded information like onstar... and since there is no way to send coded vehicle information no true way to bust that particular car on that particular street...
