The Pioneer AVH-3300BT is an AWESOME unit.
Plus the Nav is only like 300 to add and the Nav is AWESOME.
I LOVED this unit in my GT.
Cant say enough about it. Was great and could see the touchscreen even with the sun.
Plus you could personalize everything. Even the button colors.
I LOVED the SD card slot it came with. You could pop a card in there LOADED with music.
Also had a USB slot... bluetooth ready.. and had an awesome satellite card you could add that was both XM and Sirius compatible.
The satellite hook up was like 150 I think.
Overall with the deck, Nav addition, and Satellite addition I paid I think a grand including the install.
Was a GREAT deal. This deck is TOP of the line and the price is awesome.
Some decks with this setup will cost you 2grand and are'nt as good.
Plus not many come with a SD card slot which after having COMPLETELY spoiled me.
I mean the SD card slot after having it... I would not buy another aftermarket deck that did NOT have one... not EVER.
Could do music, photos, and video on it.
The deck also played DVD's and of course did all music formats.
The deck also added more volume to the system and was CRYSTAL clear.
You could adjust everything in it to sound just the way you wanted too.
Wish I would have yanked it before getting the Shelby but the deal happened SO fast.
I got recommendations for the 3200BT but the place I went to offered this new one for the same price.
YOU CANT GO WRONG with this unit. I promise.. YOU WILL LOVE IT.
Oh yeah it is IPOD/IPHONE ready.
You can even listen to this free station on the IPHONE that does music line ups based on your music likings.

Got the PI 3300bt as well. Love the unit. Everything about it rocks. No nav, but I didn't want or need nav. Price is right too. Got mine from crutchfield. Installed myself, very simple.

I have the Pioneer Z120BT. It's the model above the 4200DVD essentially, as it comes with NAV and BT already loaded in. I installed myself. The interface is a bit more polished than the 4200DVD and 3200DVD. I'm not sure what the price difference is once you install the NAV and BT on those other units, but I remember working it out and feeling like it was worth it.
