AVIC-Z2

The Pinnacle of Powerful Navigation and Multimedia
Intelligent Double DIN HDD Navigation System with DVD
HDD Music Library (10GB) with Voice Command
XM NavTraffic™ ReadySuggested Price: $2,200.00

http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/piocda/templates/images/pio/detail_curve.gif The next generation of the ultimate in HDD navigation and multimedia is here. Pioneer's AVIC-Z2 is a double-DIN size, all-in-one system equipped with a 30GB hard disk drive (HDD) to deliver information, entertainment, and convenience on the road. Between the Z2's ultra-fast processing and the massive Tele Atlas database offering 12 million points of interest, getting where you need to be has never been so easy. And with a built-in HDD music library, DVD playback on the large 7-inch display, and iPod direct control expansion, the Z2 ensures that you'll be entertained every minute along the way.
What's New
For 2007, the AVIC-Z2 replaces the AVIC-Z1 featuring all of the powerful capabilities of its predecessor, while adding some cool new enhancements, including:
Point Addressing
The AVIC-Z2 takes advantage of a new mapping feature, Point Addressing. Many destinations are now geocoded to a precise location, rather than to an address range, making routing more precise than ever before.
3D Landmark Icons and Updated POI Icons
The AVIC-Z2's graphic map interface features 3D landmark icons for airports, amusement parks, golf courses, stadiums, and zoos. These icons appear on the map en route, making them easy to identify.
Traffic Icons and Traffic Flow Lanes
An enhanced display of traffic conditions of a 1.0 ~ 2.5-mile map scales provides maximum navigation efficiency.
Bluetooth Voice Operation*
Dial any of your programmed entries on the internal hard disk phone book with a simple voice command.
*Requires use of ND-BT1 adapterSmarter Navigation and Familiar Path Routing
The AVIC-Z2 uses a "smart routing algorithm" to analyze and assess routes by taking into account current road data - such as posted speed limits, number of turns to the destination, etc. - and recommends the most efficient path. It also conveniently "remembers" your frequently traveled roads and uses that personal historical information to help you navigate.
http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/ephox/pio/pe/images/portal/cit_3430/303115697voice%20recognition%2 0120.jpgSmarter Voice Recognition
The AVIC-Z2's advanced voice recognition makes voice command easier than ever. You can search for destinations by saying a name - like "LAX" - without having to specify a category, such as "airport." Full address searches can be done by saying the city name, street name, and address. The system can also accept multiple commands, such as "go to LAX and display San Francisco." In addition, the system can recognize a larger vocabulary than ever, letting you use alternative words for the same command - such as "go to" or "search," instead of "destination." Voice commands for A/V sources and other attachments like Bluetooth wireless-enabled cell phones are just as easy.
Follow Your Guide
The AVIC-Z2 uses a Text-to-Speech (TTS) engine and Tele Atlas phoneme data, which enables the system to accurately pronounce street names during voice guidance. For example, the system will pronounce "turn right on La Jolla Street" with an "H", greatly improving its assistance ability.

Want quick access to tons of songs? The AVIC-Z2 allows use of up to 10 gigabytes of its HDD space for a music library. You can listen to music while at the ripping and storing tracks at 4 times the playing speed. The system also includes the Gracenote CDDB™ Music Recognition Service, which automatically "tags" the music you record with the artist name, song title, genre, and album title. This allows you to conveniently access songs by simply saying the artist name, song title, genre, or album title.
The Gracenote CDDB database for your AVIC-Z2 is updated every 4-6 months. Download the latest version here (http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/vgn-ext-templating/v/index.jsp?vgnextoid=2ee84a7402 035110VgnVCM1000002567a8c0RCRD&vgnextchannel=54620c8a81ed4110 VgnVCM1000002567a8c0RCRD).

Take your hands off your phone and call safer using the AVIC-Z2 with Bluetooth wireless-enabled cellular phones for easy, hands-free operation, which allows you to talk via the headunit's microphone and your vehicle's speaker system. To make calling even easier, you can store the phone book on the Z2's hard disk and access it by voice or the touch screen display. For even greater convenience, you can access phone numbers associated with the POI database, letting you call the location you are being guided to.

"Factory-Fit" Style
There's no need to worry about the AVIC-Z2 looking good in your dash. The Z2 is designed for a perfect fit in many vehicles that feature a "double-DIN" size. The system seems to melt into the dashboard, providing a fit and finish similar to factory systems. The front panel is motorized to provide access to the hidden disc slots, and the default position can be set to any of 6 choices for the optimum viewing angle.
Just a Touch Away
Using Pioneer's navigation system is a snap. Just touch large, bright icons on the screen to navigate menus, plot routes, or change map views. An easy to read status indicator provides current location information, turn distances and approximate time to destination. The touch screen has extremely fast response rates and a wide viewing angle.
Best Seat in the House
Besides being a navigation system, the AVIC-Z2 is a full-featured mobile entertainment hub. The built-in DVD/CD player allows you to play either DVD Video (for the rear seat entertainment capability), or CDs with audio or MP3 files. If you're a radio listener you'll get great sounding AM/FM radio from the high-performance Supertuner IIID tuner and you can expand the Z2 with a digital satellite radio tuner to enjoy even more music options on XM or Sirius Satellite Radio. Whatever your media preference, the music comes alive with maximum power (MOSFET50) and sound performance (Easy EQ).

With all those features, does it have a Shiatsu massage, or inflatable doll option?

[magindat]

Yeah, when I put the one in Dave's car (SCT) the dayum inflatable doll nearly knocked me out!! That thing comes out like an air bag!!!!

Cool thing is... the 'massage' is built in to the doll!!!

:2thumbs:

[Pops]

To much information guys!

[sailsmen]

My GPS keeps saying "you cannot get there from here"!

[Pops]

I used to say that when I was a paper boy back when asked directions. Did not make a lot of friends that way.

:D:rofl::laugh::lol:

[Pops]

Just a reminder guys. These will be showing up any day!

[Pops]

I have one of the Z2 left!

[Windsor58]

John,
Any rumors yet of an upgrade or replacement (more HDD space, for example)for the Z2 coming in the next year or so?
Are the Z2s any more difficult than the D3 to install (2004 Marauder)?
I like the idea of the HDD (and some of the other features), but it seems like the D3s are much more prevalent. I'm trying to lay out my long term modification plans.
Thanks,
Chip

[Pops]

There will be a Z3 and it sounds like minor changes. We have no info on it yet other than what the rep tells us. Install is about the same other than hooking up the mic. The harddrive is nice but the big feature is the nav stuff is on a harddrive. these are nice machines. I have one in stock. A lot of guys do not to pay the money diff between the two.

[Pops]

I will take 1200.00 for the last Z2 in stock. It needs to go so I can order the new ones.

[1 Bad Merc]

John,

You have a PM.

Thanks

Brad

[Pops]
