I switched to Amazon.com and recommend checking their prices before you buy from anyone else.

5 to 6 weeks left before my factory ordered 370ZR arrives! I’m leaning towards buying the new Pioneer double din head unit. So many good reviews and actual owner’s firsthand experiences convinced me it’s a good head unit. Has anyone installed the new Avic Z or X series?

as i stated before, pioneer makes a solid HU, you should be in good hands. having said that, i don't have any experience with the new products but i can only imagine the interface is even more refined

Thanks HKY….I did my research and found Pioneer really is a solid innovated head unit. Independent professional reviewers and installers have endorsed Pioneer’s features, quality and reliability. It appears the only negative comments about Pioneer’s reliability are isolated. How could one person have so many problems? It’s statistically impossible and proves to be a personal issue with the name brand! Has anyone else taken Statistics 101??

TipsZ

Yep! Taking Stats right now .. for those who do not know .. it is not a Math .. it is more of a logic than anything else. Just as you know Wicked, it really depends upon the sample set and how that sample is taken. I do not believe that isolated incidents reflect upon the Population as a whole, they are just the outliers.

TipsZ…you are creating flash backs! Outliers, population, standard deviations of the mean, Z-score etc. What I really miss are the keggers at Sigma Chi!!

TipsZ

Exactly, I prefer the parties to studying Statistics ANY day!

I believe this is more than just bitching about something! Apparently, someone has a personal vendetta against Pioneer! When asked to list specific problems, answers are vague and childish. Certainly not the sharpest boy in the trailer park! Anyway…looking forward to getting my ZR and most likely will be installing a Pioneer HU unless Kenwood shows up to the party with something new! It’s really between Kenwood & Pioneer, they are the best head units on the market right now!

When you say "Demo", you mean these were on the shelf for the public to mess around with? Any of the knobs / buttons worn? Pics would be nice.
