Customer Review: I would not give this to my ex-wife
Life before the Avic = :) Life After = :( No worries - today is celebration day! I am finally getting this piece of garbage uninstalled. No more driving lost because the navigation quit halfway through my trip, no more listenting to Helen Reddy for hours because the unit locked up when the heavy metal station changed format, and no more The avic-z2 worked ok for the first four months - if you discount the awkward ergonomics: > pathetically small buttons which I guess is ok if you have small hands, but I certainly don't want any of my dates to see that I can use them well > useless iPod interface (must scroll five songs at a time to find one you are looking for - fun with 4,000. Have you ever looked for that elusive Bananarama song while driving? Well, don't. Is is embarrassing to here it is playing when the officer arrives after plowing into the back of a cement truck because) > Radio station screen that does not display the 6th station preset without scrolling and no RDS? Really? > No easy way to turn it off > No dedicated buttons to go to the function (radio, XM, CD) so you have to scroll through using the small buttons The navigation was ok if you consider the learning feature never worked. One year and the unit never learned that I never take the road out of my neighborhood it suggested. I think the learning feature was just a prank by pioneer. The blue tooth was always intermittent, but then four months later the real problems started On cool mornings below 55 the screen was dark until I held down the video button and then pushed the screen, on hot days over 80 the unit completely locked up, the cd/dvd drive motor often ran without discs in it, the disc door stopped working consistently, and on and on. I tried the firmware update, but that was obviously another fake put out by pranksters at Pioneer. I will never buy from Pioneer again. In fact, I will use Pioneer ownership as a reference when I evaluate the judgement of others. If you work at Pioneer, you obviously hate all of us. I would go so far as to suggest that you are a terrorist. Your parents probably threw a party when you chose an out of state college. Your girlfriend probably is in a support program for battered women. The only car I would put this in would be a Pontiac Aztec. That was the only product sold in the last 10 years that was worse. And I am including that stupid Head On thing. I think the Avic should be sold by that Oxyclean guy.
Customer Review: Best GPS out there
I've looked at other car NAVs, even bought an external one for my girlfriend.. 95/100 of them would rate below the Pioneer Z series. The graphics are great, much better than other cars. My co-worker made sure to make that comment a dozen times.. The features and options are great. Bluetooth is great, tons and tons of addons.. 7" screen to watch DVDs or aux for ipod video. Make sure you upgrade the firmware, and the addon ipod interface box is miserably slow(use the built in aux instead). These two minor points don't detract enough not to highly recommend it.
