The Bottom Line:
You can't go wrong with the Sportster Replay. If you don't like the suction cup mount there are other options available. This thing is SWEET ! A
I previously owned the Sportster but I decided to upgrade to the Sportster Replay for a few reasons. Although the original Sportster and the Replay are almost identical I do like the redesigned antenna and the Blue LCD screen.
I researched all of the units that are Sirius compatible and decided on the Sportster and I'm glad I did. All Sirius radios work off of the same software but the controls and features are not all the same and IMO this offers the most and is the best option.
This unit is VERY east to install and Sirius Customer Service is outstanding (if you ever need it). Music choices are plenty so if you love music you'll be in heaven.
The radio has some great features like the Memo button which allows you to mark your favorite songs and when they are about to play on ANY of the Sirius stations you will get an alert which tells you the song is about to play and you have the option to go to that station and listen. You can set your favorite NFL or NHL team in the unit so if you are listening while your team is playing the unit will give you scoring updates...How cool is that? But the real selling point of this unit is the Replay feature. If you like Tivo on your TV you will LOVE this. Say you are listening to a great song and you have to answer a call on the cellphone, now you have missed the rest of the song..No worries, simply hit the rewind button and you can hear the song all over again in it's entirety.
The only drawback is that if you change stations you lose what was saved but that is minor IMO.
Overall this is a nice unit with great features, easy to set up and reception is very good. You may lose a signal every now and then while going under an overpass but the signal is restored in seconds. You can't go wrong with the Replay.
