I have the alpine IVA D310 installed in my cruiser for my own entertainment and for it's add on features that I plan to upgrade to sooner or later (such as navigation). I can say easily that this is the best audio system I have used for a while. It's super easy to navigate to your favorite song, pre-program radio stations by signal strength, customizing the background (they have wide selection from their site), style... and did I mention that it also has alot of add on features? You can add on another monitor, another input of some source (such as playstation/xbox/etc), a rear view camera, navigation device from alpine (and it comes touchscreen ready). You can add an alpine amp to it and have it displayed on the monitor when listening to music to adjust it without having to screw with a remote or manual buttons and knobs.
I have another spare monitor that I will fabricate some sort of mount either under the glove compartment or inside it later for the passenger. I don't have kids so the rear's are pointless for me.
It has a removeable faceplate for security, a remote, the flip out motion is [8D].
I got this one over the 300 because of all the features over it and a minor price difference (to me), and also chose it over the more expensive model (901) because after trying it out, it wasn't worth the $2,400 the shop was asking for it.
woof... hope this helps some.
