Default Suggestions for Radio with GPS

A couple months ago I was looking around for solutions for my ipod dilemma in for my car. I had a local audio store order an interface for me for my car. Turns out, it is back ordered for an unknown period. I figure getting a new radio is a better option anyway (especially the GPS, I could use one). I have heard good things about the pioneer radios but wanted to hear all suggestions and feedback. Thanks again

Something like this?

Also would like to keep it around $600- $700 max.

This looks almost perfect. I don't need a nuclear in dash radio lol. Just something that isn't frustrating, has GPS, and a USB hook up

The link doesn't show an item, but I have the AVIC-X930BT. The link in the original post is the AVIC-X940BT. I'm gonna post a little vid I made a while back when I got it installed. I don't go into much detail about the unit though since there are plenty of videos on YouTube that go much into detail.

Buddy of mine has subs and amp so I was JUST looking around for a GPS head unit. You like it Antonio? I'm seeing a price of about $522 online. Sound about right?

I love it! Regular price everywhere I see it is around $700. For $522, I'd jump on it quick.

Oh **** haha okay I just might have to. What's the known difference between yours and the one OP listed?

Not much, really. The one I posted is aimed more towards iPod/iPhone while the one OP listed is compatible with iPod/iPhone and Android. Other than that, there really isn't much more to it that I can recall at this point.

I have the Avic-X940BT recently installed in mine and love it. It workes great along with the subs and amp as well as the stock speakers. You can get it quite a bit cheaper though, I got mine of Ebay, shipped to my door in Canada for $670 and if you go on Amazon you can get it around $600 as well.
