Pioneer? Kenwood? Alpine? Which way should I go?

I'm looking to install a dvd/nav lcd in my '02 rsx-s.

Just wanted to get other opinions:
-which system do other people prefer or which they think is best.
-Where I can get the unit in the GTA, price?

Currently my top pick without the Navigation is the Pioneer P4000, because of its price and sleek look. This is my Value buy without the nav.

Next is the Pioneer Avic D3. From what I've seen it has it all. $600+? is it work it?

Others Kenwood DDX, DNX series.

What do you think?

Pioneer, but ground the RCA jacks if you want a good ground. That is the only thing I think they lack. I'll try to pull my head unit out to show you how I grounded mine, helped a lot!

I preffer the Avic D3, tested a lot of double din decks with built in Nav. The Avic had all the options I was looking for and more, and the fastest nav load times. Bought it off Kijiji for $475 in box, and not a single scratch.
