!!Urrgent!!.. should I buy it or not?

Hey bros,
My friend is selling his deck Panasonic CQ-DF602W (picture below)
http://www.mengs-auto.com.my/audio/...c/cq-df602w.htm
to me for CAD $150 dollars.. ...... it still has half a year warranty left ( this unit is 1 year and half old0... is it a good deal to buy it?!?!?

and say if i do get it.. Need I buy an additional cupboard to fit in the space or this deck would fit our 7th Civic perfectly!?!?

and last.. how much is the installation gonna cost me/?!?!

thanks in advance for any replies...

Never rush into buying car audio...do your research so you don't regret it later.

It's not bad of a deal. I think I would go for it.
But like fonto said, I would do some research.

I bought a Panasonic deck as well. It's not bad at all, but now if I could go back I would have bought an Alpine or Pioneer.

Beware of used electronics. you never really know what your getting. Find out if the warrenty covers you, cause you usaully need the original recept to get it repair or replaced.

Yeah that warranty won't mean jack if you don't have the original purchase receipt...
