I recently got pulled over for not having a front license plate but only received a warning. Then the officer started commenting on how nice the Stinger looks.[grinking]

In the case of front license plate, I decided that the fine is worth it. It carries zero point (a non-moving violation). I get a ticket about every other year on average. I consider it a sacrifice [grinking]

We have only had our Stinger for about 2 weeks, and have 1800km on it so far. No cops pulling us over, but plenty of heads turning and a few questions about it at the gas station and stores.

We have no choice about a front plate here. They are installed at the dealership. If a car leaves their lot without it, they can lose their license to operate and get some pretty big fines. I'd take it off myself, but they are pretty on top of the game on giving out tickets for it here, and giving a call back to make sure you got it put on.

None for me but only 1600 miles and just over a month since I bought the car. Plus hard to speed in rush hour. [scratch]

I may have been going a little fast late at night on a road that I know has minimal population with the exception of the Fire Station. Unbeknownst to me the Phoenix PD SUV just happened to be leaving at the same time I drove by. Thankfully by the time she caught up to me I had turned into my driveway. So I was pulled over in my own driveway. No ticket though! To be honest I have no idea how fast I was going.

Lucky! Did she get your number? The fire stations here all have police hanging around them out here in Gilbert so I imagine its the same in other parts of the valley.
