The K40 is an inferior radar detector. They are hidden. Big deal. Unless you are in a state where they are illegal, dont bother. The K40 is insanely expensive too, which is so ironic given its poor performance.
I use a V1 in my M5 and 996TT. Saved me many, many times.
One big caveat: many sites on line purporting to be 'radar detector review' sites will also sell detectors. V1s are only sold by valentine. Sites that dont sell the V1 tend to poorly review it. So.
Dont fall for the 'built in' thing- did you go to a local store where they were trying to sell you on it???
