Anyone bought a ~$200-250 head unit recently?
Based on what head units are currently available now in 2013, I'm looking for a $200-$250 head unit for an '07 S2000, completely stock.
That budget is just for the head unit. I'm going to do the Modifry DCI etc in addition to the purchase of the head unit, and install it myself.
I like Alpine, Kenwood, Pioneer, and Sony. Definitely want some iPOD control. Don't need Bluetooth or satellite radio etc. HD radio would be nice.
Any suggestions would be great.

I just bought my first Pioneer head unit. I'm using it with a wired Modifry DCI with SCV enabled in my AP1. No complaints other than the fact that I am unable to turn off the "beeps". I have always purchased Alpine or Kenwood headunits in the past, but I went with Pioneer due to it being one of few head units to support the iPhone5.

Just installed today clarion fz502 along with pac-audio swi-rc in to replace my sony cdx-630ui and i love it so far! Sound is now better with my current kicker 6 components along with 2inch kicker tweeters on roll bars and my twin kicker 8inch subs in glove box. 
radio has bluetooth and phone call capability wirelessly thru speakers. http://www.clarion.com/us/en/product...559424029.html

If you have the USB upfront it will hit the radio door and may get in the way of shifting... I always prefer USB extensions out from the back
