Having a distictive vehicle can bring you unwanted attention, I was pulled many times for traffic stops in 1969/70/71 in my Z/28, often when I was completely behaving myself and at/under the speed limit. It was almost like it looks/sounds fast and agressive, so he must be doing something wrong. I did get a kick one afternoon when cruising at 50mph in a 55 zone when a VA State Trooper hit his lights and pulled me over, I stopped and got out with my license and registration and asked the rather young trooper what I had done wrong. He replied "Nothing, I just wanted to see one of these Z/28s up close". We sat on the side of the road for 30 minutes or so while he looked over the entire car (including an at length look under the hood), even sat in the Z and started it up just to see what it was all about. Unfortunately, most other traffic stops were a real PITA.
