Just Got my Black P5

Brought it home, and I get a damn warning for speeding. First time I have ever been pulled over. Not a good feeling. Whatever, I love my car.

ouch! that's harsh!

I've had mine for a few weeks and managed to get going a little quicker than I realized I was going... in one case I though to myself "hmm, if I were a cop I would be waiting right over there" and put my foot on the brake... sure enough, there he was... man, he gave me a very ugly look! Probably did not get the laser gun up in time... gotta love the brakes on these cars!

welcome to the board!

Yeah, especially when the numbers on the speedometer are shown in 20mph increments!
