well im gonna toss a head unit in my 95 gt. im partial to panasonic and pioneer. I am not looking for show-winning stuff, just good sound. I don't want to spend more than 200 bucks. MP3 playback is not a necessity but it would be a bonus. can anyone point me in the right direction?

pioneer = walmart.... that should tellu something , while ur at it u could go and buy those nice 3000 wat subs at walmart for 35 dollars.

kenwoods really arent that bad they may look cheap and feel cheap but they have decent sound quality for the price.

as with the pioneer i have a friend who had one, after a few months it would start skipping whenever he hit a slightly bumpy road.

You may just want to check the install that was done on that skipping unit.

I have the pioneer DEH and I love it. I'm no audio expert, but I'm really happy with the sound. Also has great options on it to customize the sound your trying to get. Includes a microphone to hook up and let the cd player read the actual sound you would hear from your seat and optimize it for what your putting out. Nice and smooth motion when the face comes down for a cd. Not a bad price either. Installed for over a year now, no problems. Definately recommend.
