FS: BNIB - Sealed - Escort Max

Sold out! Thanks!


Not PC related but just thought someone might be interested...

Brand New in Box Escort Max. I have two for sale which I got from a BBK offer that Turner Motorsports is running.

Technically Car and Driver actually reviewed this better than the Valentine because of its better filtering of false alarms and modern features like GPS integration. I might just keep one and dump the V1 but I really like the directional arrows, though I will admit the V1 is borderline useless because the of number of false alarms in heavily populated areas. Only saving grace is most cops in CA use Ka band and rarely use the congested K band which mine is basically beeping constantly on my commute.

Review

Either way this is a top of the line detector and the only difference from the Max2 is the built in Bluetooth which can be added to this unit with a new BT Smartcord. But honestly after doing some quick research it looks like the phone app is a bit wonky and not necessarily worth it.

MSRP and what it lists in some sites is $549, but....

these retail for $470 on Amazon.

$400 OBO

Not the newer max 2 I presume?

Not the newer max 2 I presume?

that is correct this is the original but as I stated above after doing research they are exactly the same internally with the exception of Bluetooth. Its been widely discussed in the review pages and (radar) forums that these are identical. Thats why pricing between is very similar with a discount to the Max to take into account the need for a new Bluetooth Smartcord to make them equivalent.

MSRP on a Max2 is $599 compared to $549 for the Max
