Just for you guys I thought I'd post this up if anyone was thinking of grabbing anything up:

It'll probably only last for a few more hours. I just picked one up as it's a no brainer when the V1 has marginally better sensitivity for $120 more. Anyways just a heads up.

But, but, blue won't match the interior lighting!!

I'd rather see blue LEDs than a blue handout from a patrol officer. LOL. Embrace the blue in the BMW logo!!! :P

Warning these tested were made with the older 9500i, not the 9500ix. I'm not sure if there are any sensitivity differences.

This articles shows more about the 9500ix: http://www.radartest.com/article_2.asp?articleid=100578

Yeah realized if I get one it'll be a redline since I live in VA

Yup but the escort redline and sti diver have leakproof cases so don't emit anything so the cops radar detector detectors don't pick it up. So if you hide it well or integrate it into the car which is what id do, you'll be fine
