Yes it is at BB but make sure you know the revision # before you buy it there. You probably want the A4M9 revision #.

Ok, since a radar detector is illegal in Quebec, than your only choice should be purchasing the Bel STi driver rd. Does this help?

First off, don't believe anything on radartest.com. Craig Peterson has a long standing feud with Mike Valentine which is why you'll always see him bashing the V1. The V1 is still the absolute best radar detector as far as sensetivity goes. That doesn't necessarily mean it's the best radar detector for everyone. If you live in a city that has a lot of auto doors it'll really get tiresome. The arrows are a godsend for locating the radar source. I have an Sti and a V1. I don't feel like reposting my whole testing experience, but in short my Sti is better on 35.5 ka and that's it. My V1 pretty much kills it on all the other bands. The ramp up stinks on my Sti. Unfortunately I live in VA and I've spotted Spectre IV's on my daily commute so the Sti is the only detector I can use. If it wasn't illegal to use a detector in VA I would switch back to my V1 in a heartbeat. I sincerely feel that the Escort 9500i is probably the most well rounded detector available. It has the closest sensetivity to the V1 across all bands and it's quiet as hell in the city. It's ramp up is great.

I would believe not believe 80% of what comes out of Radar Roys mouth since he is so money driven he picks his own products the "Top Pick"...

Oh yeah..he happens to sell the Bel STi and not V1. You should see the dinners and amount of time Roy spends with his personal friends at Belscort..Bel and Escort. Someones back pockets is deep. The only thing I like about the STi is the Spectre III stealth..other then that it bores me.

The guys of lidar testing still seems like the only reliable tests.

The GOL has some good testing but their are some of us out here who do our own testing too. I know CP doen't play very fair though.

I'm too planning on getting the STi because of the stealth but beltronics won't ship to Quebec...any other athorized Bell dealers out there?

Thanks
