is there a car music dock for samsung s3?

Q. I'm wondering if there is some sort of car dock for the samsung galaxy s3 that I can use in my car to play pandora through my car stereo etc...
I know that Iphones have something similar, just didn't know if they had anything on the android market.
I do have an AUX button in my car, but it says "no AUX output" when I press it. I don't have a port to plug anything into. Just the cig lighter port.
I only ask because a friend of mine had something like this....she has a dock that plugs into her cig lighter port. she can play pandora through an AM station on her radio that is compatible.
Does anyone know if the android market has this and where they're sold?

A.

Original Question

What Android models have the best sound quality?

Q. I currently have an LG Optimus T. It's a budget Android phone. Good quality, full-featured Android in a small package. Big drawback other than the crappy camera is that the audio sounds like garbage. When I plug the 3.5mm jack into my car stereo, it sounds atrocious. I would like to get a new Android next year but I want to upgrade to something with much better sound output from the 3.5mm jack. Something that will sound comparable in quality to an iPod. I have a great car stereo system so I want to be able to take advantage of that.

What are some Android phones known for high quality audio?

A. i think Samsung Galaxy Series and Sony Xperia series are best for sound quality

A. Add this module to your car stereo
it is a Bluetooth android interface, plug in using the auxiliary input on the back side of the new radio

Q. i like to listen to dance music, and i want to listen on my bluetooth-enabled car stereo. Thanks! p.s. I know that iPhone has tons of apps for streaming music, but Android may handle it better, I dont know.

A. As much as i love Android, Android doesn't support listening to music in a bluetooth enabled car right now. It's something you would expect since tons of phones can do that. But unfortunately i'm going to have to recommend an Iphone for you. :(

How can I play music from my Droid X on my car stereo?

Q. I have a 2006 Ford Fusion SEL and would like to play music from my Droid X in the car. There is no auxiliary plug-in or anything like that in the car. So I'm guessing the best way would be to somehow broadcast music from the phone to the stereo via a radio frequency. I see a bunch of Bluetooth options when I search online, but the discussions get WAY too technical for my simple mind. Is there a good product out there I could use for this?

A. stay away from any fm modulator transmitter they do not work , sound quality is very poor
the best way is this android interface, you can plug it in the back side of the radio and it stays there there are no cables wires, it turn on from the android phone,

http://www.oemautosound.com/pc-701-201-isimple-isfm21-android-bluetooth-audio-input-streaming-adapter.aspx

the other option is the auxiliary audio input for the ford fusion radio, you have a AUX button that you can use to input audio into the ford radio, this also works along but there is a wire
for the best sound quality use the aux interface and the android bluetooth together

How to play music from an android phone in a car?

Q. How do i play music from my android phone to the speakers of a 2001 BMW X5? It doesnt have an aux input or usb.

A. mObridge

This device costs around $700 installed and will give you an aux input. The other option is to replace the stereo, which will cost you around $500 installed and you'll have an aux port.

Do you have a tape deck in there? They sell adapters at Radioshack that look like a cassette tape with a wire coming out. Plug the wire into your phone and you're good to go.

There's also FM transmitters, but they sound like cock. Direct wired FM modulators are a headache in this car so I wouldn't look for that either.
