Nice, what model is that? Also can you control it with your steering wheel controls?

How does the display look on that bad boy?( I really dislike the sharp edged fonts found in most HU)

So far so good. I really like being able to use my waze app for navi on it and pandora.

There is an additional usb to iphone/ipod/ipad cord you can buy from pioneer (or what ever vendor) that allows you to use "advanced app mode" on the display. It gives you access to about 21 apps pioneer has "approved." Waze, Pandora, Google Maps are just a few. I've always relied on Waze for navi so for me it was an easy decision.

Sweet!

Nice!

That's the exact HU I have picked out for when (if) I decide to upgrade it.

The steering wheel controls show no lag when switching songs or stations? That's what I'm most worried about.

No lag thus far.

Looks nice, did you go with the Navigation upgrade?

The AVIC-D3 that I have on my Z is still going strong after almost 6 years, Pioneer makes some great products!
