This is fantastic gear, but I'd love to have been a fly on the wall at Gathers when the marketing guys proposed making a new stereo that only fits a car 15 years out of production to the finance guys.:eek:

You never know, it may be a test outlet for the new Beat.........Then again the are a lot of Beat owners in Japan who will pay for this improvement. I'd like one, but not at around a £800.

Must admit that I was amazed that they'd made it give the low production numbers.

Still looks good even if expensive. I still prefer my hack job however :D

Can someone amuse me with the different prices and what they mean? (what are you buying with each different price?)

Does anyone know if this works with the OEM subwoofer?

I've got a guy at vtec looking into costs imported into the UK. I'll let you know what he comes back with.

(what are you buying with each different price?)

A bit of logic and google translate:
Sky Sound component (the unit) ¥ 64,000 (give or take £420)
Attachment (installation ?) ¥ 8,000
the other 3 are optional leads; ipod music, ipod video, and aux input cable.

If it is exported from Japan, the 60,953 yen price should apply (ex-VAT).
