Travelling down I-95 through Florence, South Carolina and I couldn't believe my eyes.

A little break in the woods reveals 4 Mustangs lined up. 2 05 GT's and 2 Mach 1's. All were white with black stripes. Coolest speed trap I have ever witnessed. Sure enough they got me doing 89 in a 70. The guy was very polite....knocked the ticket way down and then we talked engines haha.

That unit has bucks! Unreal.

We saw one of those last weekend on the way to Myrtle Beach. They are cool looking. Thankfully, my radar detector warned me.

That is pretty awasome. I guess if you're going to get pulled over, you might as well get pulled over by your own kind!

A lot of those cars are being used to try and stop street racing. DO NOT race an 05 GT with 5% tint and NOS license plate frames. The cops also won't roll their windows down if they're reving at you.

Is there a "police special" version of the 05/06 GT? Or maybe those guys are using a Bama Chips tune!

The few times i've been stopped in SC (graduated from Clemson) on my way home to Atlanta the state troopers have always knocked my tickets down if you're polite and cooperative.

Wow, that blows. I've wondered if the smokies were going to bring back the stealth 'stangs for running radar. Haven't seen them in MO yet. Hope I don't either.

My hometown, the Glendale, Arizona Police Dept has an unmarked 06' Black GT prowling the streets now, too. Good thing, the rice is growing out of control

If they are trying to get you to race by revving at you, that's entrapment and very illegal. :nono:

I doubt a judge would agree with you.
