nice catch bro, thats my lancer in the above pic.
i dun know about its price, as it came fitted with the car,but it surely is a great substitute for cds and cassetes, i hv a 2gb drive and in it ihv made various folders for diff songs, uptill now i hvnt got the need to play the cds on it., and also i dun think there is a cd stuck problem in jvcs, mine runs superb., also the player detects wat type of song is playing, for eg rock, classic, hiphop,jazz or pops, and the bass and trebble settings are adjusted with the song.
