I got pulled over when I test drove my S2000. Except, when I got pulled over, I was going 70+ in a 35. The cop was a little pissed

Reminds me of when I got pulled over coming home from the dealer. Just bought the car, driving the speed limit (30 MPH). Cops were at the intersection, getting ready to take a right turn towards me. After I passed them, they decided to follow me for half a mile, then pulled my wife and I over. The guy cop was a prick at first...thought I stoled the car. The lady cop was pretty cool about it. After he got my license he started kissing @ss. Was telling me one of his buddy lives pretty close to where I live and all that bullsh*t. After asking me what kind of car it was, how fast, how much HP...etc, he finally let me off. After that incident, I knew what kind of attention the car would be getting...

I got pulled over when I was test driving the s2000 too.

An unmarked police car with a side mounted radar got me doing 108kph in an 80kph zone. Despite the dealers best efforts he could not save me the expense of a speeding ticket.

I bought my car where kramnosnip was doing his test drive. The road the dealership is on is big, but all the side streets are residential. Anyway, they let me and my wife take out the car for about 20 min. On the way back, I was going to jump on it. At 45MPH, put clutch in, shifted to second, looked up and saw cop on side street, shifted to forth, let clutch out and drove slowly back to dealership. Maybe there's lots of cops around there, but I don't get down that way too often.

kramnosnip, Piece of advice, DO NOT BUY FROM BRAMAN HONDA. They'll screw you.
