No tickets, but I did have a cop follow me into a parking lot because he wanted to see it up close. Where I live, we call those jacked up

Where I live, we call those jacked up trucks "Penis mobiles" cause you know those guys are compensating for something. |

NO tickets, knock on wood for about the past 20 yrs in the US. Had about 10 speeding tickets in 5 yrs in Germany back in the 90s.
Only one HOV violation in my truck about 3yrs ago. But I will agree that I'm getting unwanted attention from the cops in the 370, not so much on the 350 I had.

Don't get me wrong, I love this car and absolutely LOVE driving it... but I feel I get a whole lot less attention then the Roush Mustang I was driving before. I used to get the cops attention all the time in that car and don't feel it now. Knock on wood, no tickets in either car but I learned to drive real careful in that car...

Two issues -- One was at an intersection where I was slowing to turn right. A cop had a guy pulled over right at the edge of the intersection. As I slowed and downshifted, the sync-rev revved and both the cop and the guy getting pulled over looked up, like "huh?" I think they thought I was trying to make a point, or something.
In the other issue, it was about 3:00am and I was close to home in a residential area. A cop pulled out from the side of the street where I guess he had been running radar (though I got no hit on my detector and was not speeding). He was blacked-out and there was very little light, so I know it wasn't just forgetfullness. He followed me for a couple of turns at residential speed -- about 30-35mph. It weirded me out a little, but he finally broke off.

2 Tickets since June of last year, one dismissed because of a defensive driving course, most recent was this past Saturday, yes, a Red 370Z DOES attract a hell of a lot of attention, i've never been harassed by cops as much as I have in this car in my life.

Yeah, look at my last one.
It was today 02/01/10 @ 4:25pm This one is going to screw me over big time. I already have 4 points and I'm taking a defensive driving class online right now. I should be working on it right now actually...

Was talking to somebody today about possibly getting a Z, he told me to make sure I can cover all the expenses after I buy it. You're tickets are what he meant haha.
