Car Stereo recommendations?

[vsp]

As far as I remember. (It's at home right now, I'm not.)

Here's the difference -- look just above the dot-matrix readout. The pictures I've seen all have two icons above it -- "ST" for Stereo and "MUTE" for muting. Well, mine has four more dimmed icons to the right of MUTE, one of which was PTY. Does yours? I have no idea if the deck itself HAS PTY features, or how to enable them if it does. Apart from that, it's identical to the manual -- it's not as if there's a different Clarion deck with a similar faceplate that they might've swapped in by accident.

(The only reason it stuck out when I saw it was that my father just bought a new Chevy Trailblazer, and I was helping him decipher HIS new radio's features when I tried out PTY. On his, I can enter a type of FM station to search for (such as "Rock") and it'll automagically scan to stations that broadcast self-identifiers matching my criteria.)

The remote was not shipped, as they say, on purpose. When I compared the Sony deck I'd mentioned to the Clarion on Crutchfield's site, they specified it directly -- Clarion == no remote, Sony == remote. It's not as if it's a big loss, however.
