I think the price gap is way too small for not having some of that stuff. its about time they start including mp3 playing ability with factory decks, especially with car aimed toward our age group, and single deck is perfectly fine with me, because the mp3 cd(if it played mp3) holds more than a 6 disc changer. if they shaved it down to 2000 difference, more people might be inclined to get it...I guess unless you're really gonna change a whole bunch of stuff the first day you get the car...
