They are the exact same guts inside, except the r8W allows you to update the firmware and database wirelessly where the original R8 needs to be plugged into a computer via USB. Performance wise they are the exact same and this is a great deal.

Using one of these is the only way you are going to be able to make the Kessel run in twelve parsecs.

This is why smart drivers use laser refactors on their front plates and the spray on their headlights.

Speeding tickets are just a cash grab. You rarely see people ticketed for any other violations, such as driving slow in the left lane which is also illegal. What if someone is trying to get to the hospital. People often don't move right for ambulances as well. Speeding tickets are just easy as they meet they quota quickly for the gov't to make cash.

This is for the R8, not the newer model, the R8W. Significantly changes the proposed value of the deal.

So this is for basically people who like to drive fast and over the speed limit but want a warning to slow down if there are speed cameras ahead?
Very few people drive the posted speed limit on freeways, and that's fine. Radar detectors allow you to focus more on your driving and the drivers around you instead of being distracted by constantly looking out of cops and cameras.

This is basically for the slow driving Prius on the left lanes so they don't get ticketed for hogging the left lane in tortoise mode.
