Pioneer Z3 but it exceeds your preferred spending limits.

I have a Pioneer AVH-P4200dvd in my car now... I love it.. I'm not a very big audio person though but it does get the job done well... that one is discontinued now and they have the 4300 which allows pandora support

Pandora sucks. They need to stop rotating the same 16 songs over and over again.

I was going to snag a Kenwood 6960, but found an excellent deal on a slightly older DDX-7019 with nav and bluetooth modules. The nav unit has USB and an SD card so the maps can be updated.

The 6960 sure is a nice piece of kit, and with your price range will leave some cash left over for speakers and an amp.
