Yeah, go with any of the Avic F series The difference between the different F models is mostly a choice between nav and cd and dvd/cd. I'll eventually go with the F900bt or F90bt simply because it has all of the options, but many people are very happy with the F700.

I don't really use DVD functions in the car, so I chose the F700, and I am FIRMLY in love with it! It also can play portable media movies as well, so the DVD function wasn't so huge of a loss. If you need help with the install, let me know. It was a cinch after getting some crazy information!
