    Radar Detectors: Whos Using What?

    I chose my detector after owning almost every one. My Boxster S and M3 had the $1200.00 K40 unit. I have owned the 8500, Bel, Cobra Etc. One of my faults is I WANT THE BEST. I thought the best cost $1200.00, I was wrong. The best detector out there is the Valentine 1. Some people complain about...

    Mustang makes top three list of most hated cars on BMW M3 forum...

    Sick of seeing so many 3 Series Bimmers are we? After buying my first FORD ever I now see the HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of tacky 04 and earlier Mustangs on the road. They made more of these cars than they did low budget pornos. Who can forget the sight of a Mustang with the "air scoop rear bumper"...

    Here we go!! Build quality on a Vette compares to an M3? ARE WE ON THE SAME PLANET?

    If you look at who has responded on that thread you will see alot of M3 Rice guys. Rich young kids who don't know very much. I do tend to agree with some of whats posted on that thread however. For example with regards to technology, Subaru can EASILY get 300HP with 4 cylinders!! Can you imagine...

    Radar Detectors: Whos Using What?

    Ticketmered, those sites are paid for by the detector companies. Complete scam info. Don't believe me? Go buy a Bell at a store that you can return it within 14 days. then buy the V1 and use BOTH. The Bell is a LOUSY detector yet gets high ratings on these sites. I wonder why? Go to the...

    Radar Detectors: Whos Using What?

    Hey, Doc, not only does it have the arrows but in terms of performance it beats the 8500 YEAR AFTER YEAR in the Car and Driver shootout. Silver if detectors are illegal there have the k40 unit custom installed. Its performance leaves alot to be desired but it sure is better than no detector at...

    Leather Seats Almost Look Like Leather!!

    Not certain but odds are they are inserts. The majority of the seat appears to be 100 percent virgin vinyl. The back seats are 100 percent plastic all the way. Hey they had to cut corners somewhere to get 300 HP so they cut out IRS A quality interior and the lousy stereo. I can live with it but...

    Pics of speakers inside door

    Everyone thinks all I do is trash the Mustang. I love this car but I also point out its faults!! As I said from day 1 this stereo is the worst piece of trash I ever owned when it comes to factory stereos. My 22K WRX had a far better factory stereo than this junk! Ford ripped me off with the...

    Leather Seats Almost Look Like Leather!!

    Thankfully the low budget seating materials on this car seem to look better with age. The seats look more Plastic than Leather especially when new. The seats are starting to get broken in and thankfully they are actually starting to look almost like real leather!! Maybe when I hit 50K on the...

    Scotchguard Or You Will Regret IT!!

    My wife has a nasty habit of not lifting her feet when getting out of the car. I have 6K on the clock and the tan carpet on the passenger side was FILTHY! Luckily I Scotchguarded the entire interior the day I got the car and the carpet has come clean. I also had my door sills covered with Paint...

    Radar Detectors: Whos Using What?

    This question usually provides lively discussion!! I have tried almost every detector on the market and IMO there is only one TOP DOG. The Valentine 1. I even dropped over $1200.00 on the custom K40 which is the only other detector to utilize 2 antennae, one for picking up threats from the front...

    Huper Optik Rules!!: Thanks Edbert and Stangnet!!

    SVT, yea I had the 8500, the Bell, Cobra, Whistler, even the $1200.00 K40 custom unit. The 8500 is a good unit but the V1 is by far the best detector on the market. Check out the Valentine1 website and read the Car and Driver test results that are posted on their website. These tests are the...

    Huper Optik Rules!!: Thanks Edbert and Stangnet!!

    SVT, the 8500 is a good detector but don't believe the BS that you get 360 protection. The V1 is the ONLY detector with 2 antennae (other than the k40 custom units which have an antenaee installed in each bumper, this unit however performs extremely poorly since the antennae are so low to the...

    Huper Optik Rules!!: Thanks Edbert and Stangnet!!

    Thats right sweetheart WHERE ARE your pics???? If I get a chance tomorrow I will post a couple. The material seems to have "natural" look to it which blends with the car as opposed to just "blacking out" the glass. Hard to explain but its a look that you would expect off an Aston Martin or other...

    Huper Optik Rules!!: Thanks Edbert and Stangnet!!

    The installer told me he has had no issues with scratching and he was quite knowledgable. In fact this guy was the ONLY guy in my area who had any clue what Huper Optik was. I agree $85.00 is REALLY CHEAP but this seems to be the going rate for installing the standard low budget tint like Llumar...

    Huper Optik Rules!!: Thanks Edbert and Stangnet!!

    Silver, just the limo tint can make certain cars look real bad. A silver car with a very dark tink looks pretty nice but my car with the Windveil Blue and Tan would really look like hell with a dark tint.This Huper Optik has the same performance qualities of the illegal "limo tint" but has a...
