Ya it would fit, I just installed an F90BT on my '05 C55. You need to give up the stock amp though.

yeah that is true. but if you pay with credit card...and since we all have benz's i am assuming most of us have AMEX's too charge backs on our AMEX's are like no hassle what so ever if this occurs not just with this but anything you purchase for that matter AMEX usually does charge backs no problem at all. At least that is how it has worked for me in the past.

So how is the subwoofer powered after losing the stock amp? How well does the 22rms x 4 internal amp in the unit power all the speakers?

that store is full of it.....
*they told me i had to buy a warranty, as they are not an authorised Pioneer retailer.
* had to get the bluetooth module for 200 bux when it clearly states that it comes with it.
* so many fees and BS options they made up.
*tried to sell me an expensive model when they didnt have f700. Classic bait and switch.

Youre better off buying from ebay. I had the sirius, HD radio components as well. I also disabled the video in motion feature. Took ten hours to install in my rx7.

Dont buy from that store, theyre a bunch of liars

How often do you need navigation? I've had my d3 for 2 years now and seriously used the navi maybe 3 times. I like the DVD-mp3 discs i can burn and the XM radio better.

I have the F700BT in my 968, and am very happy with it. When it first came out, there were a handful of bugs in the software that causes a lot of the frustration that you see in the reviews. Pioneer released updated firmware that fixed most of the problems. The bluetooth connectivity can be a bit touchy with some phones. It doesn't like blackberries for some reason.

It doesn't play DVD's, but it will play other video formats. I often throw a few movies on a jump drive, and just plug that in.
