Default Pioneer AVH-P2400BT ??

Anyone has experience with the new Pioneer AVH-P2400BT HU? (attached link)

Either installed it? or has it in their car, etc.? I was thinking of picking one up to replace the lame bose system in my 2007 Z and was curious about this HU's reliability, features, ease of use, etc.... Also, what good speakers would you guys recommend to replace those crappy door speakers?. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You are well in the price range of Pioneer AVH-P4300DVD. Go for that. Lots of guys here (myself included) have it. Great product with lots of expansion capabilities.
On the other hand if you can spend a bit more, go for the Pioneer ultimate (AVIC Z130BT). Have it in another Nissan and wish I had gotten that for the Z

I went with the AVH-3400BH because the 2400 was not in stock when I was ordering and couldn't be happier. The headunit comes on quick, is very responsive, and things are laid out in a very user friendly fashion. I use it to stream music from my iPhone and it works wonderfully. It auto connects when I turn the car on and displays all the track and album info on the HU.

I looked around a lot prior to purchasing this unit and I think Pioneer is the best brand to go with and then choosing what options you want/need will tell you which model to go for.

I went with the Pioneer AVH-P1400DVD with the stock bose amps, speakers, and sub. It is definetly an amazing deck and the sound quality is amazing has 8 way equalizer which made it very easy to get just the sound I was looking for. IMO Its not worth switching out speakers until the bose ones crap out.

Side notes: I originally ran kenwood exceleon decks in previous cars but after switching to Pioneers I will never switch back just love them. Also I recommend getting a double din for a Z but thats just my personal preference because I think it looks a lot cleaner installed.

Pioneer makes great car audio/video devices. The unit you ask about works very well, but it has a relatively small screen. You notice the deficiency when using it for navigation or displaying with a rear-view camera.

I have the 2400BT and I love it... it was exactly what I was looking for in a HU because I wanted something with BT and USB capability. I didn't really care for navigation since I can use my iPhone/iPad for that but I find it feature rich and easy to use.

I can't comment on the SQ because I'm running an MS-8.

So I'm looking at the Pioneer AVH-4400BH which has the 7 inch screen. Will this fit the Z just fine?

Also, possibly looking at the Pioneer AVH-P2400BT and the AVH-P3400BH, anyone know what the difference is between these two besides the HD radio and satellite radio?
