I'm no car expert - I really don't know much at all, but I think it's really nice!
I'd certainly consider getting one when I start driving!XD

I think they're quite stylish:P

And also, will it work if I imported it?

Specifications
DEH-P85BT: http://www.pioneer.co.uk/uk/products...5BT/index.html
DEH-P9800BT: http://www.pioneer.co.uk/uk/products...0BT/index.html
DEH-P800BT: http://www.pioneer.co.uk/uk/products...0BT/index.html

Or any recommendations? Preferably under £300.
Please and thankyou's!

get yourself one of these, insted of JUST a head unit, this is what i have got.

A Miata is a really fun car, though it does have a bit of a stigma (though nearly all [modern] small roadsters do: Miata, Sky, Z3, etc.). It's still one of the few "real" sportscars and the current version is really well put together. Lots of them on tracks every weekend to since they're so incredibly cheap to run (and you can pick up an older one for nearly nothing).

My old partner had one - and I'm not making this up - that he drove, in the WINTER from Mountain View, CA to Atlanta, GA WITHOUT once putting the top up.

I think chemicals were involved.....

That looks a little bit expensive Liger, I was hoping for something around £250, and I only really want it to have bluetooth and direct iPod control... From what I've seen, the P85BT is the best choice for me. Then again, that does look cool Just don't think I'll be able to afford it. I guess I'll have to save up some more. Still need to get my license. lol buuuut, I'm learning. Few more months, gives me time to save up for random stuff for the car.

My toy is a 1982 Pontiac Trans Am
Mod list very long but the main parts are

isky retrofit roller setup with rev kit, nice 570 577 lift with 300 298 duration @ 50.. makes a nice lump lump idle..ha ha
383 forged rotating assembly stroker 4 bolt splayed
150 wet shot of nitrous
It's built to rev hearing a stroker sbc hit 7,500 rpm is something only god can explaine..lol
Did 95% of the work myself apart from machine work for the enigne. Assembled the block and everything else.
Sound system is a 2000 watt setup with a couple of 12's more than loud enough for that small of a space

Still need to do suspension mods not bad stock but not super impressive eaither. Also getting it re-painted this winter and probbaly some more custom interior work. Just hit classic status so gotta dump some real cash into it..lol






It hits the track a few times a year but pretty much just my DD and cruiser int he summer.

My winter DD is this, a 1999 Chevy tracker with 3.5 suspension lift,29 inch mud tires, K&N filter,NGK plugs, Chipped, just the basic updates. Going to toss some 31 inch mickey thompson MTZ tires on it this summer. Does awsome off roading with low gearing and short wheel base, very solid ladder frame setup. I take it to my local mud bog club all the time. And did I mention 30+ mpg ha ha fun as a toy and a DD

I don't know why i picked this really,lol thought it was funny the lifts where cheep and good on gas, been thinking about getting one a while and its so cheep paid 4,500 bucks with like 60,000 miles so it was a nice buy for a DD.






I've had some funny cars over the years, just don't like to conform I guess. My last car was a 1992 plymouth duster with a 3.0 v6 but for shits and giggles i took the Twin turbo setup off a Mitsubishi 3000GT "same exact 3.0 block minus small details and i tossed it on the duster. Something about seeing a 2 door rusty american hatch back do burn outs and run the 1/4 mile in 11's just gets me going.. ha ha

Also have a 2004 chrysler concorde for another DD the wife drives that mainly but also loves the tracker.
