Anyone got a ticket yet?

Lucked out today....spotted trooper in the distance and backed off; pulled over the van that was passing me on a dual lane highway.

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.

I'd like to see which color gets the most tickets! Someone make a poll!

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

When I was on a test drive the salesman told me one of the people who had test driven it earlier that day got one. lol.

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"

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.

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.

Triple Yellow. Got pulled over but issued a verbal warning for speed. Whew!
