Think it might be worth $1,700? Its a nice lookin deck. I just wanna hear any input on it (other than the "are you freakin crazy spendin that much on a deck?" Thanks
You could buy a computer and have it fabricated into your trunk for about half of that. Hell, grab a touchscreen from lilliput and you still probably won't break the 900 dollar mark.
But if you want it to be as easy as popping in a headunit, it's the way to go.


i have the non-hdd version, the 9400, i love it, and will use it untill it falls apart

I could do the computer thing.. thats simple. I just would rather have the deck cause it would take far less room for other things
