I am so sick and tired of hearing this crap. The cops bust what ever the "in" thing is at the time. That is what the majority of the young rowdy individuals are driving and the most chance of finding drugs and alcohol.
When I was in high school it was the jacked up trucks, they fizzed out and it was the low rider trucks, then the mustangs and such, and now the imports. If you are in an attention getting vehicle and out at the prime times you are getting pulled. Yes I own a Mustang and have the tinted window, no front plate, loud exhaust tickets to prove it. And yes I have the illegal bumper hieght tickets from my low rider, altered exhaust from my Rx-7's, and tinted window tickets from all. i have a nice collection since obtaining my permit back in 1985.
It's all about revenue generation, and keeping the drugs and alcohol off the streets.
I was stating that from my experience, I have three mustangs, never gotten a ticket for doing supposedly illegal custom stuff, plenty of my friends, have in thier imports. Sorry you are sick of hearing it, but from MY experience it's how it is right now. I can't take every single person in VA with a domestic into account. But.. other than that I agree with what you said, and I think that the imports are getting the bad rap right now, who knows what it will be in a few years.
