Does the red match our orange at all? (Sometimes red LED's are really orange or pink). Or is the blue a better look?

 

don't think it's worth the extra $$$

 

I think the Red is close enough. I like it in my car.

 

Get the red. At night, I've passed a few cars and have noticed the blue hue from the other car's radar detector. Its better IMO to have a stealthy set up, to keep it less noticeable to other drivers and the cops. The red isn't as noticeable.

 

Red.....matches the car better. We have some red, no blue.

 

I like the blue cuz its the new one and everyone has red. Red or blue can be too bright at night that's why you have the dim button on it. Mine was same price as red but not sure if they just didn't know it was blue.

The blue is WAY cooler (you'll see soon enough why I say that)...

 

hey i was wondering where did you guys purchase the 8500 from? the cheapest i found was $305

 

Red, a different color is not worth the extra $$ plus you want to be cool like me.

 

Go blue. I did and it matches pretty close to my AVIC-N1. I like it. I paid the same price as the red as well.

 

Blue looks cooler, without a doubt.

But I went with the red one because our dash is orange and red, so atleast it matches something. The blue would look very out of place.

i went blue because i have a black G, so when i do anything, my colors in the car are black/blue theme

 

def go with red, i got mine at best buy, im an emp. so i got a really good discount. but reg price is usually between 280 and 300
