About to pull the trigger on the Pioneer 8500BHS
Is there any reason why I shouldn't get this head unit? After all my research this seems to do exactly what I want it to do.
1) Mirrorlink with galaxy s3 via hdmi interface. 2) Handsfree blue tooth calling and streaming of music. 3) Nav from my phone via Google maps Please tell me if this is a good option or not... 10/10/2013

If you do not want to pay extra for the removable face, the 5500 is the same unit without a removable face.

^ right. The convenience is that it has built-in nav so you won't depend on the phone all the time in an emergency situation when phone is not working. Many good units out there and this is in the same online price range w/ Alpine S920HD.
