Sucks...

I got one a month after I bought my 350z (first one in 20 years). That was over 3 years ago and none since - knock on wood. I'm pretty careful and when and where I push it.

I'm scared when i get my F1 exhaust how many popos are gonna pull me over for that crap. I'm already sketchy with the tint and no front plate. The good thing is the Z looks hard as fukk and not some rice rocket.

I'll be getting one of these soon. My Escort Passport 8500 is old now. Time for an upgrade. It's been wonderful though.

I got one after my first speeding ticket. Should have gotten it before.
But it didn't stop me from getting my red light violation! Turns out I needed a map upgrade...

I Love my 9500IX, however I have noticed that having it down low (in the car) as opposed to up high in my truck has a HUGE difference in the sensitivity for it to pick up the bands. I might look into the 9500CI next spring. I have had atleast 5 saves since I bought this detector over 2 years ago, easily paid for itself. The only thing you have to find out is if cops in your area like to use Lidar, in which case its not going to help you one bit, and infact will give you a false sense of security.
