Well, my modded VW was a ginster yellow GTI VR6. Pretty close to our proton yellow. Got a ticket from a county sheriff's deputy along I-5 for a black Dodge Ram crew cab doing 85 in a 55. Never had a ticket before and after that. Got pulled over once by a city motorcycle cop who claimed I was speeding (wasn't) but he couldn't prove it. Since he knew he really didn't have any grounds for pulling me over, he started to look over the car really good to find anything he could pin on me. Since I didn't have a front plate he harrassed em about that and the fact that I didn't have Oregon plates (moved from CA a week prior). After I had explained to him all the paperwork for new plates have been filed at the DMV (one block away from where he pulled me over) he still wanted to give me a lecture on not having Oregon plates. What a tool.Originally posted by Spike
Good thing you dont have a Proton...
After the experience of owning a yellow car... I swore to never buy another. Now with my green VX, I've sped by cops and they don't even care. Yellow paint is a b*tch to match too. Pray that your Protons never go to the body shop.
