No Bodykit or ticket

I have been pulled over for 80 in a 55 with a slap on the wrist, and never got a ticket in the fastest car that I have ever owned.

Will I lose this teflon ticket status if I repaint my silver car Black and add a bodykit and spoiler?

yeah right. tell that to my friend who bought an EVO and got a fix-it ticket for loud exhaust note. The EVO was brand new and he was still in his break in period. Like only 150+ miles into it!!! Got to love VA.

Angry I feel the pain

I am a former cop. (Was VERY laid back and only wrote tickets to people who made an effort to get one.) Since I have had my RX8, I have been pulled over 3 times and did not do a thing wrong. Once for running a stop sighn at 55 mph. He insisted that I ran it at a high rate of speed even though I was behind him at the stop sign. I got stopped two other times because they said that I "took the turn mighty fast". When I asked them was I speeding or doing anything wrong, they both replied, "well, no....but...." Can I go or am I getting a ticket. "Have a nice day, try to slow down." I thought you just said that I was not speeding. I knew I should have gotten black instead of the red.
