    If you don't break the law the cops cannot F with you. You won't get a ticket for simply owning a cool looking car thats red.

    Yes, but they will still be all over that red car like white on rice. Red is quota to a cop, they'll get you on license plate height from the ground or some crap like that.

    Maybe in rural Arkansas, Georgia or some other countrified rural area. Big and little city cops got bigger fish to fry and do not sweat the petty things.

    Ever since I stopped breaking laws I've had no problems with LEO's. No court appearances or lawyers fees. Its been great. I reccomend trying it.

    You just bought a better car. I'm biased, we have a 2007 GT ragtop and you didn't buy from the bailout company. As we say up here in the Great White North " Beauty Eh"

    Read the specs on the listing at the dealership and it said 305 HP with 290 torque pretty dang good for a 3.7 V-6

    I had a 65 Mustang back in the early 70's. Had a 289 with an automatic in it. Come to think of it, it was a red one to and had a white vinyl top. I got a picture of me standing by it with long hair hanging down the front. I was always being told to get a hair cut when in the navy :D

    Not a bad car for this old grandpa can't wait for the rolled eyes look from my daughter. :)

    The blue truck is my friend Verns, another HD rider. We meant up for a few beers and dinner tonight at the tavern. Only had 3 beers with dinner.

    Nice new toy, I prefer the Mustang over the Camaro in the new updated ones. Hope it gives you lots of trouble free miles.

    You may be right. My experience has been in my lowered/bored/cammed import car from years past I used for auto slalom only on closed courses, and I could not drive through some areas at or below the posted speed limits without a "police escort" and usually a random spot check. Since getting into "grampy cars" and trucks, I have not been under the microscope at all. Of course, no more auto slalom in a Crown Vic either.... so you may have a point.

    I had a 68 Camaro SS with a 454 B/B'd. It was awesome. When I was a kid we had a neighbour that had a 68 Camaro with the 327 4 speed and he would pull the wheels off the ground on take off. Seen that with my own eyes .
