You can always check ebay. A lot of times they have head units on there that are brand new and come with the factory warrenty. You may also want to check out Kenwood head units. The have Sirius not XM but they are great units. I am running an eXcelon KCD-X659 and I love it. There newest one is the KCD-X959 I believe. You may want to check it out but I'm not sure. Mine has 4.5v preouts still not bad and it play mp3's

I found it here: Pioneer DEH-P940MP

for $548.00

It's temporarily out of stock but, by the time you are ready to get it, they may have it back in. You can always email them and ask too.

I've found that when something is so new that the discounters sites don't have it yet or have it for retail prices, I check out this place:

http://www.nextag.com/

Do a search on what I am looking for and can usually beat retail prices by 50 dollars or more. Always a good site to check out for anything and much much better than places like buy.com which really isn't all its cracked up to be.

$479.00 + shipping on ebay right now with warrenty

jstas...dude you kick ****

keske...or anyone who knows about this:
how do you get full warranty off of stuff from ebay?

It's got all the same stuff as my Girlfriend's current head unit plus a whole lot more. I'm very satisfied with her head unit and I can only imagine that this one is just as good if not better. I still haven't figured out all of her settings yet so you will probably messing with it until 2035, like you said! If you can get the full-warranty for the 479 or whatever from ebay, go for it. If not, that price from that site i found on nexttag.com is 150 of of Retail and like 200 off of MSRP.

The buiness should send you a reciept or an invoice showing the date you bout it and the prive you paid. The buiness should be an authorized Pioneer dealer if they are offering the warrenty and you just register the head unit with pioneer (i'm not sure if they have a web site or whatever). Hang on to the reciept and if anything goes wrong take it into your pioneer dealer (local) along with your registration and they should get it taken care of. Most companies won't do a thing without the reciept and the regestration.

Hope this helps.
