arthur01 Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 hey whatsup guys, i'm in the market for a pioneer avic z, but i want to know what are the differences between the z1 and z2? besides the z2 having newer software (which you can upgrade the z1 to have, it's just a cd upgrade i think?), are there any big differences between the z1 and z2? am i better off getting a newer z2, or am i better off saving money by buying a z1 and upgrading the map so that it will have z2 maps? -What are differences between Avic Z1 and Z2 besides maps?- thanks, --Arthur Quote Link to post Share on other sites
