I hope it was a P71 playing dress up as a taxi man instead of the cop!

You intentionally hit a police car? Were there any consequences?

cops tend to follow interceptors with spotlights because they think they might try to do something cop-like. my friend mike has one and he gets pulled over constantly just so the cop will know his intentions and such.

The police officers around here don't seem to give a care about me. I run into marked cop cars all the time, they don't seem to even notice that I'm driving an Interceptor. They don't look at me or anything... It's weird.

Getting pulled over by the real cops was the one only thing I was worried about when I decided to go get a P71. Now, I seem to try to get them to notice me, and they still don't care. So I will let it be.

Have I failed to mention how great the brakes are? Yes, I did.

THE BRAKES ROCK. So predictable, so progressive. How far you push the pedal is how hard you brake, with a progression so smooth it beats the control I had with the clutch in the MS6. Barely any dip in the front end. Stops surefootedly with a purpose. No delay, no dead spot, no pedal play. It is one of the best set of brakes I have ever used.

I told my girlfriend to consider a CVPI when car shopping.
