That did not take long! I am only 2400 miles in and none yet, but I am trying to be extra careful. I assume this thing will get attention quicker than when I am cruising in my Altima.

More reason for me to get a radar detector, I gotta do step on the gas and get it.

I'm @ 12,500 and so far no tickets.

Been pulled over at least 6 times though, luckily all warnings.

I knocked on wood for you.

Lets see... since October 2011: 1 speeding ticket, 1 red light violation, and 2 fix-it tickets for tint & missing front license plate.

2 tickets for me, and I'm half-expecting to be mailed a speeding camera ticket from about a week ago

But at least the speeding camera one only carries a fine and won't effect my insurance.

Sorry to here it. They haven't caught up to me yet.

Actually drive what must be the most heavily patrolled hwy in the bay area. Get her up to 69 and hit the cruise control when traffic allows. Good gas milage and no tickets.

Makes for a boring ride home though.

Sucks...

I got one a month after I bought my 350z (first one in 20 years). That was over 3 years ago and none since - knock on wood. I'm pretty careful and when and where I push it.

I'm scared when i get my F1 exhaust how many popos are gonna pull me over for that crap. I'm already sketchy with the tint and no front plate. The good thing is the Z looks hard as fukk and not some rice rocket.
