You people somehow pissed them off.
i wasn't driving like an ass, he prob just saw my recently polished apexi muffler and knew it was after market, the tard prob wouldn't have even pulled me if i have NO muffler

I don't have a muffler or cat on the 930 but no cop is ever going to know what my car is supposed to have on it.

Sportz Car Freak, you had a couple reasons for the cop to hassle you. Not only did you work at a pizza place that he thinks "is dealin". You also drove through the neiborhood that pays him to patrol on his off time because the goverment pays him shit and he can basically be super ass whenever he want's. Happens in my neiborhood all the time, it is good I live in there by the entrance so I dont get hassled.

Yeah i also agree its something about the driving or something you did. I have a Saturn SC2 that is open exhaust right after the cat. The exhaust fell off about 6 months ago and never got pulled over and looked at and its extreamly loud. Also my Merkur has a straight 3 inch exhaust right off the turbo with a singel 3 inch in and out hollow muffler with just a 3 inch tail pipe, no ricer coffee can. Also my old truck had the exhaust fall off right after the gutted cat. It was a Ford f150 with a 300 inline 6. Also extreamly loud. I got pulled over but they never bothered my exhaust. I think the coffee cans are a dead giveaway.

I got one of those tickets, mine was $60, and after that I had my 5 inch tip replaced with a 2 1/4 and then painted the whole rear section black and had a resonator from a GS-T welded onto my mid section, never had any problems since. I guess cops just assume now that my exhaust is alittle loud because it broken.
