I really adore AMC cars! They were way ahead of the themselves in both technology and style. Such amazing cars in retrospect. The Pacer with Levi's demin interior! Love to have denim interior now! AMX...

LOL... my car is #2... nice

I picked a dark red color though that doesn't stand out hardly at all.

Never had a problem with it... knock on wood.

Actually never been pulled over period... knock on wood. I tend to drive the speed limit a lot though.

My '98 Protege with the roof rack and 17' kayak on top?

Absolutely.

Not on the lists but yes my cars are a rolling magnet.

3" piping and no mufflers tend to do that.

My driving habits are not so legal all the time and I never get noticed in my Lincoln MK VIII, which has basically the same engine as a Cobra. Yet I was always getting tickets in my Toyota 4 banger pickup. The Toy had a top speed of 90 MPH, the Lincoln's is 150+.

I got a caddy SLS and should get at least 1 ticket a month.

Clean record

Every few months or so I just know I'm nailed and start to pull over just to have the cop buzz by and pull over the red sports car with the bimbo doing here makeup.

My wife drives a '06 Mazda6 that she's had for two years now with no traffic stops.

My '06 WRX didn't make the list and I've had one ticket. Go figure.

I used to get harassed all the time in my old Porsche, but don't get bothered at all in the vette. It's funny how copy hate Porsches (rich snob's car) and love corvettes (I know a ton of cops that own vettes)...even obnoxious orange ones...

I think they got it wrong cause around my city I rarely see people driving the top 10 cars. More like hoopties and P.O.S. It's not the car that draws my attention it is what you are doing wrong.
