They hear sound. Now I'm thinking I could get red AND not be arrested.
What do you think?  |
Yeah, funny thing was it was an actual color swatch at the paint shop i was at. It's nearly a fire engine red. Looks really nice. I was told by a lot of people it almost looked orange, but I never once thought that.

Red prius...
The red car thing is a bunch of BS. Yeah I drove a red camaro, and the cops followed me in town watching closely for every move I made. Why, Because I drove a camaro! It had nothing to do with the color of my car.
How do I know this you ask?
Growing up in a small town you tend to know everybody. So whenever us ponycar guys got together we ended up talking about how we were all followed by the police the night before. Sometimes it's actually pretty funny. Some cops have nothing more to do but give us a hard time. On to my point, the pony cars in my town were every different color under the sun, and every single one of us was treated the same... Like a criminal.
Please don't turn down your favorite color because of a silly rumor. Because that is all it is, a silly rumor. Loud pipes, like the ones on my car...That's what gets the attention of the police.
