i have a like brand new never been installed clarion drx 6675z pro audio. retailed out at close to 400 bucks new. comes with extra face and case if i look i might be able to find a remote. this is a very very nice deck with multi colors and flip down face.

for the 150 you get alot more then you would buy new at a store or even ebay.this is a super clean hu with very awsome sound quilty. let me know and i'll send you a pic. great, good deal.

Gotto agree KarTune, your "bling" and "feature" limit is your budget. $210 is about where the price break is. As for a good looking display with useful features for SQ - Pioneer Pioneer Pioneer

I have an Alpine CDA-9847R and I'm pretty impressed by the sound quality this Head Unit can put out of those crap speakers i have installed =) Would be around 200$ if I'm not mistaken.
