A black car period will pull less looks than a red car. So if you're trying to play low-key with the coppers, get the black car. There's a reason they paint fire trucks red, and that's so you will notice them.

i think black would be better than red...
red is the general color of sports cars and its probably one of the first thing a cop notices when he/she is scoping a pack of cars.. a nice red sports car

Constant threat
Yeah, black is a little more stealthy. But.....dark cars are more likely to get hit, according to national statistics.
Just do what I do. Join/support as many police, sherriff, and highway patrol organizations as you can. Be part of a neighborhood watch program. Show the cops you are a good citizen. That way if you do get a little feisty sometime, or get pulled over for MINOR speeding offenses, the cops MIGHT be inclined to let you go.
Hey, it can't hurt!

Cops must have probable reason for pulling you over. However, expect to have them make up some bullshit reason - happens all the time to me. "Is this eally your car" "yeah, it is, dumb ****, want to see the registration?" I have no respect for cops that stereotype against all younger people

Only if you can prove racial or some othere kind of profiling.
Just be glad you did not get a ticket... they can also do that without a reason.

Cops follow me all the time, get used to it. They see a young guy driving a fast car and they will immediately suspect that your up to no good. I got followed for 3 miles by a cop. As soon as i stopped, he waited for me to get out of the car and then drove away. BTW, Mines Black....

Well, the Cal vehicle code is quite thick and there is some crazy stuff in there. Basically, the police can pull you over for whatever, because it is in the vehicle code. Heck there is a Vehicle code(and I cant find it now, damn, because I want to use it) that lets the police pull you over to check anything. So, if I suspect you have no cat, pull you over to check.
Some loser idiots sit in your state capitals and make up all these laws. So, dont blame the cops, blame these idiot lawmakers. Seriously, browse thru a vehicle code sometime. Someone thought of these; a person cannot wear glasses where the side skirts, as you will, are thicker than 5/16". Its a law, I know someone who wrote a grandma a ticket for that.
