Been pulled over and gotten a reduced ticket (95 in a 70 to 75 in a 70) cuz the cop owned a S/C Saleen convertable and ended up talking mustangs for 30 minutes. He hadn't seen a Mach1 up close and wanted to check out the car, I was like "Sure, let me pop the hood real quick." Definately guilt of a high percentage of them.
