I'll be getting the 9500ix most likely.

Dude I think you may have a speeding problem lol. Next time in Augusta I'll be sure to look out for a red Z

I actually just did about 20 minutes of research and decided to go with the V1.

Ordered it and it'll delivered by Wednesday! $422 with shipping. Not as pretty as the Escort/Bel, but V1's reputation speaks for itself.

you will not be disappointed. tried and true, had an escort for a little while and it to is good. I just love the directional alerts along with the ease of hardwiring and blacking out the main unit, and having the little alerts mounted somewhere else.

You recommend getting the concealed display? I'm afraid after doing a clean install of the V1 itself, I'll have to still have a cable showing to connect the concealed display.

How's the cell-phone false alarms? That's possibly the worst aspect of the cheaper unit's I've seen.

Haven't really noticed too many false alarms, they happen from time to time but no where near what a whistler or other radio shack type one would have.
