> [@nappy1380](#): > > Uhhh, Hamburg did this. The mustang they use now was from a drug bust. Too bad it’s a v-6 though. lol almost got me a few times. was cooking down 5 in the GTO, in a rush doing probably 70-75 in the 55 zone. Saw a white v6 mustang and decided, for the hell of it, to slow it down. Sure as shit, as soon as I got within 10ft behind it, could see the top edges of the decals on the fenders. That guy ALWAYS has people pulled over. It would be pretty shitty to have a Cobra/Boosted Z get you though… I mean, talk about getting caught off guard ---

That seems really dumb, how could you be sure that was really a cop and not just some idiot with strobes trying to pull you over. ---
