Sometimes it's the stupidity of the driver and not the car. My daily driver: e39 540i Sport, full Dinan, exhaust, chip, coil overs, black on black, 6 speed, well you get the picture. Wednesday I met my spouse for her Dr's appointment in town. We live way out in the country and on the drive home I decided to pass her in a passing zone for fun (cornfields both sides). And way in the distance I see someone pointing at me to pull over. 86mph in a 40 zone. *****. Long and short of it, three county cops pulling people over right and left, I immediately pled guilty, showed him my soft underbelly, blurted out that I was not in a hurry but I was stupidly passing my wife... etc. Cop conferred with the cop in charge then went over to his car with my license and registration. 10 minutes later walked up and told me it was my lucky day. Handed me a warning. WOW. So I'm still with a clean driving record! Post script; Immediately went home and pulled the Radar detector from the 911 and put it in the 540.
