For the past 2 years my 460 stereo has been giving me minor to eventually major problems. At first it started out as a sporadic eject problem, that was a easy fix (punch the unit). Well fast forward a couple of years and now it won't change, eject, or read a CDs. So I have upgraded to the Pioneer AVH-P3200DVD. I hated losing the 6 disk changer, but this CD player has a SD card slot and can take a 32gb card!! The SD web site states the 32gb card can hold 545 hours worth of music.

My camera sucks at taking low light pictures. But in RL this screen is very detailed and great looking!!!

The color is adjustable and matches the green gauges.

What happens when a CD player refuses to give you back your CDs!!!

I've got a pioneer unit doing the same thing with the eject problem. I wonder if there is a fix?
Good looking cd player. Is that the one with nav?

No it is not. I am running the DVD bypass, and if you have the nav, it will see the car is moving and will NOT let you play DVDs when you are driving.

that one should have been like sub 300$ so no nav.
unfortunately the box to add NAV to that unit is like 349-400$, more than the unit itself, lol!
What's even worse is that the map updates all cost $119.99 from pioneer, which is the price of a brand new garmin 205w!
Sorry for the rant, I like the CD Player. I'm going to mock up something using a 7" LCD Touchscreen mounted to my CD player space and have it wired up to a netbook underneath a seat / glovebox for:
1.) AEM Datalogging
2.) Navigation [89$ Garmin software and equipment].
3.) 250GB+ Of Music!
4.) DVDs on demand??
The entire project is going to be 100$ more than the price of the netbook, but that pioneer was what I was gonna use until I realized it wasn't compatible with windows 7 touch capabilities. The only downside to my project is that I won't have a CD player, but who needs that when you are pulling straight off of 250GB Of hard drive space anyway.

I gave up on Pioneer :( bought a HU back in December. Crapped out 4 days later. Sent it in, got a new one, and it crapped out too. Two different problems, and not to mention but their customer service sucks. The second crap out was about a month and half ago, still no cd player back. I bought something new, it wasnt a Pioneer

this is the exact same one I was looking at buying for my car. Where did you get it and how much did you pay for it if you don't mind me asking. Electronic Express carries them I think but I'm not big on their installers. Best buy only carries the blue tooth version which Is $100 more expensive and I won't use blue tooth. Point me in the right direction please.

Hmmm well once I have the money I'll probably be giving yall a call. Can yall install the DVD bypass? If there needs to be an off the record answer for that question then you dont have to answer it.
