My money is on a Race Red, Triple Yellow or Competition Orange owner to be the first. ;)

This would be a good survey. Anyone know how to make those? I saw one for the mileage when you took delivery. Everyone selects the color and it tracks the numbers...

Yep...CO (ding-ding-ding)...most likely one of the first 6g to get a speeding ticket. Got the car second week of October...two days later...speeding ticket. Less than 100 miles on the car.

Sorry but I had a good laugh at that. I hope the cop at least liked your car.

I've been caught speeding 4 times on the highway all 15-25 over limit but none of them actually pursued! So I'll probably end up getting one before too long. Damn 9500ix has helped me none

I laughed at myself too - ALL good.

Not the first time for me though...Let me put it this way...I'm one of those guys that gets a speeding ticket in less than 1 hour after of obtaining my drivers license. Talk about making your parents proud.

Many years later and I still haven't learned to play nice with toys.

I did follow the manual though..."vary speed often" :headbang::headbang::headbang::headbang:

Don't all Mustangs get pulled over anually? I've always referred to it as the Mustang Tax. I've been pulled over plenty but only gotten 1 speeding ticket in the 07'. Really upsets them when they pull me over for noise. I have a stock exhaust.
Finally removed my window tint (30%) got tired of getting pulled over for that. Gotta love rural Virginia cops.
I expect the 15 will carry on the tradition. The 94 Cobra had the same issues.

They always say that. They are afraid of a little white knuckle action.

Always stick to young and slim salesmen. They like the speed and wont weigh your test drive down with fat. :thumbsup:

Former traffic, motorcycle cop here.... Car color has absolutely no influence on your likelyhood to get a speeding ticket! It's YOUR SPEED.
Same thing with who gets a beating or shot. It's NOT your color, it's if you're a scumbag a$$hole doing something to warrant it.
Idk maybe people who pick CO, race red etc tend to speed more but I can tell you for a fact, all we do is scan for the vehicle which is moving way faster than cars around it, visually estimate it's speed and then confirm it with a radar or laser.
Trivia fact...I never caught or issued a speeding ticket to a corvette driver. Maybe the typical corvette driver just babies the car and cruises...? Idk. Middle age, white, mid life crisis men.
