I have never EVER seen someone in a luxury car get pulled over. I admit, if I was a cop, I would prolly feel more comfortable pulling over people in ghetto cars because than dealing with richer people. Is this my imagination or really true??

Good point but your kinda off... In experience a cop will tend to pull over a piece of shit before a nice car because he is doing what's called "profiling" or a "preternatural stop" It means he could really careless about the speed you were going or the tail light out but does know that in most cases the people with large amounts of dope or felony warrants drive shitty cars.. it's not the norm to find a guy wanted for murder driving a Lexus.. It's good police work sometimes but yes you can get your ass in some deep shit for too many preternatural stops..
