Is it just me ? Bumble Bee
I know Rally yellow attrackes bugs, but is it just me or does it also attract alot of State Police ? I have had mine for a little over a month and have been stopped 3 times, twice for no front plate ( live in Maryland require front plate also bought a flip bracket) and last night ( state police was coming opposite way, saw me turned around in middle of road and pulled me over saying I was doing 61 in a 50 and I know damn well I was omly doing 56 and told him that and he only gave me a warning ticket. anyone else having this problem or is it just Rally Yellow ?

I've had my car for almost 2 months and never got a ticket. Mine is an IBM. I live in PG County, but I did go down to the Salisbury area a few weekends ago and still did not get a ticket. It could be the color. Especially when you have the boldest color for a sports car. If a dark color goes past the speed limit, its not as noticeable as a bright color going past the speed limit. Plus the cops down in Salisbury are a lot more plentiful than my area.

It is hard to blend in with a bright yellow car.

What is your age group? You might find you get pulled over a tad bit more if you're a younger driver.
They don't see yellow more.. there are several cops on this forum so maybe they'll chime in but I think what they do see is a fast car and they want to make sure you're being compliant.

regular plate holder
Did you think if you tried not beating the system they might leave you alone. You got pulled over for a plate then again still not what they want to see. Now its speed, how many yellow camaros are in you neigborhood? Your a marked man my friend they will pull you over every chance they get because they think your being a smart ass. Guess whos going to win this spat, I have to venture to guess the guys wth badges and guns. Put the plate on the right way and watch your speed for a few months and this will go away. I venture to guess your between 18 and 25 and you don't want to give into the man.

Lets see the body basically resembles an icon in a movie. Its Yellow and burns a hole in your eye from a quarter mile away. Its not a low profile ride. I drove my wifes to rinse it down and clean it up for her the other day. And every turn i made a different cop would pull out and intercept following me even before i got on the interstate to blast most of the water off from the rinse down. They were trying to catch me. You just have to be careful and cautious about when you play.

Don't break the law, don't get hassled. It's worked for me.
