Question Help me choose an in-car entertainment system!

Hello everyone,

as the title says, I am looking to buy an in-car system.
The more I researched on Google, the more confused I became

I want a system with the following features:
- 7" display
- bluetooth
- GPS
- USB
- aux in
- SD card
- compatibility with steering wheel controls
- CD/DVD with DivX
- rear-view camera (or support for such a thing) and/or park distance sensors

What is the best system on the market right now ?

Thank everyone in advance.

it's mostly about features, so I would stay mainstream company. I would think anything from Alpine, Pioneer, etc .. would be a good choice. Some of the features you want will probably end up as add-ons.

What car do you have? Are you looking for a double din or single din stereo? Chevys only take a 1.5 or single din stereo.

I've never been a fan of built-in navigation. Unless you can afford it or need it that way. I'd rather buy a portable GPS for $100 with lifetime map updates.

I've been happy with Pioneer. There's Kenwood as well. Pioneer you can go on a wide range of prices.

Looks like this would do everything but the 7" for $680:

This does everything for $900:

6.1" but no GPS or SD slot (has USB, who needs SD?) for $300:

All but navigation for $380, does the upgrade for navi for $310, if you can find the adapter.

Here's a license plate camera with a good rating for $95:

I like SonicElectronics website. You can look up the options you want and see consumer reviews of the products. I did all this in about 20 minutes. Check it out if you need more info.

The ultimate personal entertainment/multi media system is a mobile hot spot, Ipad, and use Google voice, Google maps, Pandora, Hulu+, and WWW.

How about some Apps from Apple store.
911 App
GPS App
CB Radio App
Speed limit App
Speed Trap App
Red light camera app
Backup/rear view camera App
ATM Locator App
Gas buddy App
Restaurant App
Beer App
Strip club App

it's mostly about functions, so I would remain popular organization. I would think anything from Downhill, Innovator, etc .. would be a excellent option. Some of the functions you want will probably end up as add-ons.
