As of right now this deck is selling almost everywhere for $699. You can find them for that price with OR without a bluetooth addon as well. Considering this deck is being discontinued and you can get a service plan for 3years for $80 at best buy, I think this unit is a steal. I just got one put in my 00 civic and it fits in there perfectly and has all the options you could need. The Navigation I was a little skeptical about considering garmin is pretty badass, but allin all it's not bad at all. Also I got the sirus radio installed throughit + the ipod connector cable. When the ipod is plugged in you get the scroll wheel on the touchpad also. This isn't a pioneer rep trying to sell this. Just a civic owner that got one installed and love it. I'm loving the bluetooth mainly cause everystate is starting to make it illegal to use a cellphone and the hands free works go good.

Anyways The touchscreen pioneer, sirus, 4 new 6-1/2's, and a viper alarm are my latest additions to my civic before I drop a B16 in there. Gotta get my civic back into 30k mile range not 110000.

So anyone interested in that deck check-it out I'm sure the price will keep dropping too .

The biggest thing I don't like about the D3 is that you need to use a DVD for your navigation. Which means you can't listen to CDs while you're navigating or god forbid you're like me and just like looking at the map. If you have an iPod though this isn't much of a problem.
