Alpine is expensive, but serioulsy how often do you guys really stare at the deck? Its nice to have it match the interior but I dont see it being a must. On that note I have a el cheapo JVC deck. Plays my mp3's and thats the only function I care about

oh forgot i had this post - i was just looking mostly for ipod control or some mp3 playback

what model alpines have the color changing, i looked on their site and didn't see any. I had a NAK on my last car, i might check them out agian although their HUs are pretty damn expensive, thanks for all the input!
