Yes,
I had never been pulled over except for speeding until I got my Camaro. I got pulled over shortly after getting it (temp tags on) for my windshield having a tiny bit of icy dew on it from the night as I was just leaving for work at 7am. He told me it was obstuction of vision. Then a few months later I got pulled over by an unmarked cop in upstate NY for doing 80 in a 55 he said. I had my cruse set on 74 Because I knew that I tend to speed if I dont and I also knew it was 65 until we got to the bottom of the hill. I let him know that and he got mad... said he was off duty an wasnt going to write me a speeding ticket even though 74 in a 65 was "way too fast" and proceeded to tell me that I would be getting an illegal lane change ticket because I forgot to signal when he was pulling me over until I was already moving towards the shoulder... I waited 30 minutes for an on duty trooper to show up to write me a ticket. Then just about a year ago I put an MRT 1 exhaust on my car. I dont drive fast around town or anything, I have no reason to draw attention. I was pulled over by a local cop who didn't even see he me just heard my exhaust and said I was doing at least 100mph on a back road. I didn't even accelerate to the speed limit of 50 before turning into my friends house. I was given reckless driving and failure to yield because I pulled into the driveway. I was also pestered a few weeks ago by another local cop because my front plate was too low on my grill...(I have a jac-fab bracket) He wrote me a ticket for that of course. After going to court all but one of these tickets was dropped completely and the one in NY state was dropped to a moving violation. The only ticket on my record still is a speeding ticket from like 7 years ago. So yeah... I would say the car draws unwanted attention of cops for no reason at all. It is what is it.
