Anyone ever been targeted for driving a stang?

I've been targeted too. I was pulled over on a rural road by 2 cops late at night. They came to the window with guns pulled. I wasn't speeding. They did the usual check of registration, lisence. Came back and I asked them why they stopped me they said I had a tag light out. Ok no big deal, They complained also because I had put my new 05 tag sticker on the opposite side but no big deal either. I get home and check my tag lights they are fine nothing wrong at all. I've been pulled over no joke atleast 10 times in the last year. I don't often speed, never been caught either. They never find anything or give me a "good reason" why. Maybe it's the cherry red mustang... I think. Never been pulled over this much with any other car. Sucks...

I am constantly targeted. When i drive my 92 ranger if i happen to make eye contact with a cop in traffic i give the head nod or a small wave and most of the time i get a smile or a friendly wave in return. When i drive my 02 sonic blue gt cops give me dirty looks all the time.The other day i was driving the stang on my way to work and met up with a cop going the opposite direction at a four way stop, we bolth stopped and then proceded to go as we pass eachother i give him a small FIVE finger wave and he FLIPPED ME OFF!!!!! Well i was in shock i wasnt even mad for a min because i was so stunned. Well now it being several days later and having told everybody i work with and getting all worked up again each time, im on my way home from work (i work 4pm to 12am) and i pull out on to the highway and right away i pass a state cop(headed opposite direction) so not that i speed excessively but normally i do like 60 in a 55 but seeing that cop makes me slow down a little today so all the way down the highway im doing like 57. As i enter town i am stopped by a red light and after the red light the speed limit is 50 so as i take off i have one eye glued to the speedo and normally accelerate to exactly 50. As i was leaving the light i had noticed a cop had turned onto the road behind me. So no big deal a cop is behind me im glad im driving so conservatively today. the cop hangs right behind me as the speed limit drops to 45 and then 40 as we enter town. I had been following the speed limits exactly by this point since the cop was behind me. We get one block into town and to my extreme suprise his lights come on and he is pulling me over!!! I pull over into a serivce shop parking lot and he follows. At this point i am confused an ticked off(witch never is my attitude with cops i under stand they are "just doing their job" and i am always very complyant and polite). So he walks up to the car after the 3 min of blinding me with the spotlight and says "the reason i pulled you over was you were going a little fast back there" i immidiatly say where? he says after the light by walmart and i snap back with "How fast was i going"? he says well you were definatly exceeding 55 witch the posted limit is only 50. I say confused and flustered so AFTER the light? he interupts me and says this is not up for debate im not arguing with you. So he asks me for my licence and registration and as im reaching for the registration

whoops way too long sorry,
but as im reaching he asks is your drivers licence valid? I dont know why but i was like of course its valid do you think im driving this f****** mustang around with no drivers licence? He just stops and stairs at me for a sec says that is a standard question this dosent have to be a confrontation. i instantly felt foolish for for snapping. He goes back to his car and comes back with a written warning for Excessive speed and explains to me how i almost talked myself into a ticket. I apoligise for being short with him and he leaves. But i have NEVER been rude to a cop before and felt very foolish but also still a little ticked. It sucks being looked down upon for driving a HORRIBLY DANGEROUS "MUSTANG". lol

Sorry so long
