New Pioneer AVIC-D3 vehicle system

What do you think?
I was wanting the Alpine W200, but it does not come with Nav unless you add the Blackbird to it for a lot more loot.

This also integrates with the iPod too.

For the same price as the Alpine W200, around $1k.

I like it...I always thought pioneer needed a nice "no slide-out-screen" compromise between the z1 and d2, since the z1, despite all it's awesome features, breaks the bank too much.

Maybe I'll put my paws on one soon

That is a great piece! I don't like the slide out screen units at all. Looks like a great package!

The slide out units turn me off, that was what attracted me to the Alpine W200.

This Pioneer also has a built in cable interface, nothing extra to buy to run your iPod and charge it.

Also since Pioneer is owned by Fijitsu Ten, more than likely it will integrate with my steering wheel controls without having to buy another adapter.
Fijitsu Ten makes Toyotas head unit and steering wheel controls.

I do not know if the nav section can be updated with more memory or even upload more maps, or if you have to leave a DVD in it to hold the info when using it.
If so, that would suck.

Need a lot more info on this still.

Updating with links.
Yes, I am researching this puppy.
Time for some new tunes.

I read in the comments at the above site that you can not enter info into the nav if you are moving?
I know you can not watch movies when moving, unless you do the bypass thing.

I really do not plan on watching any DVDs unless I am stuck off roading and I have the Bill Burke "Getting Unstuck" DVD in

pretty sure the steering wheel controls will work... they do on most pioneer units like this on the tacomas, should be the same for the fj!

I also need to know if it has 3 by 4 volt preamps out.
That would be the minimum number of preamp out I would need.

I guess you can plug in a backup camera too, one thing usefull for the FJ Cruiser.
And with the audio/video inputs on the front, you can plug in your digital camera/camcorder to view it, or plug in a gaming console, not that I would do that latter.

the Avic will have 3 sets of 2 volt Rca outputs. You will need a adapter for steering wheel controls because Pioneer owns Pioneer.Fujitsu Ten owns Eclipse. you will also need to buy a 30.00 cable for the ipod. and if you want to use the CD/DVD slot and use Nav you will run off of Nav Memory mode which is pretty crappy. hold off until may and wait to see The Alpine IVA_W205 and PMD-200(Blackbird 2)

Yes, FJs are double DIN.
I was looking at the Alpine W200 before until this new Pioneer showed up on the radar.

Having a DVD in for the NAV will not be a problem.
I listed to all of my tunes right now off of the iPod with the FJammer system.

The only time a DVD would be in would be to watch a vid, which would be rare.

I did hear Alpine was coming out with the W205 too.

Very detailed specs from Cartoys site
Find the perfect route
The Pioneer AVIC-D3 in-dash navigation system comes with two DVD-ROMs containing a massive Tele Atlas database, enabling the unit to provide a massive network of turn-by-turn routable roads. Within seconds, the unit?s extremely fast processor calculates multiple routes and provides directions to destinations via the graphic map interface and voice guidance. In addition, you?ll have access to 12-million points of interest throughout the United States and Canada, meaning the nearest gas station, restaurant, or ATM is always only a finger?s touch away.

Circumvent congestion
Add the optional XM NavTraffic?* service to the AVIC-D3, and you?ll be one step ahead of traffic every time. Using the available GEX-P10XMT XM NavTraffic? Satellite Radio Tuner, traffic information is provided through a continuous broadcast. The AVIC-D3?s intelligent navigation will alert you of traffic jams and provide alternate routes. And with XM?s satellite radio service, you?ll be able to enjoy a great selection of music, talk, and sports channels with loads of exclusive content. Being aware of traffic has never been easier.

Sharp look. Smooth fit.
In addition to being multifunctional, the AVIC-D3 was designed with ease and style in mind. The unit features a ?double-DIN? size that?s standard in many vehicles, providing a perfect placement in the dashboard for a fit and finish similar to factory systems. And the integration gets even better with the AVIC-D3?s multi-color illumination, which gives you the ability to match the interface to the colors of your dashboard, or your mood.

Best seat in the house
Whether your preferred media is CD, DVD, MP3, or satellite radio, the AVIC-D3 has an array of multimedia options to enjoy in high quality playback. Navigation functions and multimedia playback can be enjoyed simultaneously, thanks to the AVIC-D3?s memory navigation, which allows you to load a route, eject the navigation disc and pop in a CD or DVD.

Connect and direct your iPod?
How much music and video can you bring to your AVIC-D3? That depends on how deep your iPod? library is. In addition to the built-in arsenal of multimedia playback options, Pioneer iPod-ready navigation systems like the AVIC-D3 make integrating your iPod? simple with the optional CD-I200 iPod? connector. And control of your iPod? music and video library is quick and seamless via touch screen control of the intuitive graphic menu. Once you try the AVIC-D3?s iPod? playback, you?ll be using it to play all of the songs, podcasts, and videos you can get your hands on.**

Go wireless with Bluetooth
It?s time to put that phone down. Thanks to the optional CD-BTB200 Bluetooth adapter, you can make and receive phone calls hands-free when you sync a compatible Bluetooth-enabled cell phone to your AVIC-D3. Once you?re connected, during a call you simply talk into the unit's included microphone while listening through your in-car speakers. To make calling even more convenient, for certain compatible Bluetooth-enabled cell phones you can copy and store your numbers from the cell phone to your AVIC-D3?s internal phone book. Once you?re set up, you may never have to lay a finger on your cell phone to make a call in your vehicle again.
