Default OEM Stereo Upgrade to Pioneer Model AVICZ140BH

Cant stand the look and lack of the most basic rudimentary function of my stereo in my 2007 C6. Its woefully outdated, looks cheap, and it has got to go.

I currently have Bose speakers which I'm totally happy with. I don't want to dissect or carve up my interior to upgrade the speakers. I need Bluetooth for my Droid, access to link/sync my Droid, store MP3s in the unit itself, etc.

The days of an FM receiver and CD player went the way of the dinosaur if you get my drift and that's what GM installed in my Vette.

I was thinking about this Pioneer unit, and I really need your advice....remember, I only want to swap the unit and not the speakers.

Here is the info.....unit is on sale for $411.00 off.

Pioneer Touchscreen Navigation
Plus a $100 MIR from Pioneer, Don't Miss Out On These Once A Year Prices!
Only $1088!
Was: $1,499.00
Manufacturer: Pioneer
Model: AVICZ140BH

Please tell me if I'm in the right path or not....

Kenwood and Pioneer are the most popular choices and of course everyone has their own preferences.

I suggest you contact Double D Mods (vendor) for great advice, service and prices. They have a great rep here. Have fun.

You might get some good advice if this were in the audio/electronics section.
