Personally, I think what I want to get out of a radio out weights how it looks. I have an Alpine double din w200 and it doesn't match 100%, but it does everything I want it too.
Below is pro's and con's compared to
each other, not the D3 or any other Double din. Even if you go to Crutchfield to read reviews, the DNX8120 got much better review. But here it is:
AVICF900BT
Pros: 1)the price -$779.99 @ crutchfield w/ free backup camera, wire harness +kit or amazon.com for cheaper minus all the accessories 2) MSN Direct which give movie listings, resturant, traffic data 3) BT 4) 5.8" touchscreen 5) match interior lighting 6)voice control of iPod audio (with optional adapter)
Cons: 1) not cage mounted and you definitely need the kit to install 2) even with firmware update 2.0 it's still a little slow. 3) 5.8" touchscreen 4)6-channel preamp outputs (front, rear, subwoofer) 5) exposed CD/DVD slow [dust can get in] 6)1 yr warranty
