i am very inexperienced with car alarms. can you tell me the best two-way car alarm with lcd on the market right now? money is no object.

also how does the audiovox pursuit pro-9800 compare to the avantguard 5? i am getting a 2005 gx470 and the dealer installs the pro-9800. is that good enough or should i just go aftermarket?

Both are good alarms but as a available dealer of both, I side with the Compustar. Matter of fact we would only order the Audiovox if specifically asked to. Generally a car dealer goes to what he gets the best price on, Audiovox fits that bill to a tee.

asking that question is like this is like saying "which is better coke or pepsi" i personally like audiovox units ie pursuit and prestige.

exactly what FORBIDDEN said "Generally a car dealer goes to what he gets the best price on"

they would never go near the compustar cause of the price. dealers = losers and will scam you into anything(they want your money and blood)

stick with the compustar......and have a good installer install that for you(or if your going to try installing it)

I have the blue one on top

the best accurate alrm/starter out there, this company has won many awards for this unit.

all these other products are not bad.....if your trying to save a buck.

I see alot of people going for the cheap ones and having problems and end up coming back to me to in the compustar, ends up costing them double.

Those are my thoughts
