<![CDATA[Vehicles with radar detectors]]>A co-worker of mine says that he's almost positive BMW (or someone) produces cars that come with radar detectors stock from the factory. I say that a company would be putting themselves in a bit of a situation by pretty much giving the "okay" to speed and break the law, espically when most european countries have outlawed use of radar detectors.

So who can provide me with proof that someone makes a car with a radar detector from the factory?

Looks factory but if you do a good enought install you can make anything look stock.

If it's an option it doesn't really matter. Not everyone will get it, especially residents of Virginia. If nothing else, it's ALOT easier to hide something like that because they aren't going to be looking for one integrated in anything stock.

But that sports car is up in the vanquish price range.

Like how corwin does rims and stuff, but not a OEM option.
