Well I have been looking for a 240 and I was test driving a 96 5spd and I was cruising around and a Civic that was hooked up decided to rev at me so I did the complementary look over and noded and I was like okay bitch your going down and we stopped at a stoplight and I just revved up a little bit and I noticed a purple camaro sitting to the right and I realized it was an undercover Cop because I saw the strobes and the tint was illegal, so I looked over and smiled. When it turned green the Civic was all go burning out and after it got through the intersection I saw the Camaro turn its lights on and went after the Civic I later saw them down the rode with the Civic driver outside of his car getting bitched out by the Cop. I love 240s. I need one. But street racing doesnt pay.

haha good job noticing. And no it doesn't pay, not saying I've never done it but it doesn't pay.
Isn't it illegal for an undercover cop to pull you over or give you a ticket atleast. I thought it was intrapment? Oh well, as long as it was a civic owner I don't mind.

Thats happend to me 3 times when I had my old SAAB. It got funnier every time. I would roll down my window and scream laughter at the guy as I passed.

hahaha....same thing happened to me when I got my civic, except I never saw the cops unitl they pulled the other guy over...one was undercover and the other was not ......I laughed so hard, cuz these guys were really trying o tget me to race. They stomped on it and then would slow down so I could catch up and then stomp on it again. :D
as far as it being legal for cops to pull you over when in an undercover vehicle.....I think it depends on the state you are living in.

Ohh reply to this thread I know a cop that pulled me over ( really great guy, no ticket or anything) but he said that if your in PWC watchout for this list of cars.
-96 Dark Green and Purple Z28 Camaros with Illegal Tints
-97 Black Mustang with dark tint. 5.0 Badge on the side <-- Ran into that one
-A fleet of Civics for the undercover "street racing scene we have"?? one is White with Park Bench on the back.
-Misc Surburbans and Tahoes.
- Blue and Red Corvette Blue newer and red older.
That is a lot of money but yeah my friend had a run in with one. He has a turbo GSR and a Undercover Civic (the white one) decided to mess around with him. Well my friend was like ok. Well they went and umm story be told they never caught him and by the way he changes his license plate from wrecked cars(Illegal at most). But funny story my friend ran his mustang into a cop car and didnt have to pay anything b/c his brake lines failed.?? Rustangs?. I dont know but yeah its all good, racing with techno on is the way to go on a road with nobody else.

live2drift2live, you live in the Northern VA area and forgot to mention:
- 2002 grey chevy crapmaro
- baby blue 2000+ impala (my roomate just got a 90 in a 55 from one of them on the beltway, I fortunatly had the good fortune to get stuck behind traffic)
I figured those would be the obvious in this area.

well in the past it had to be a sanctioned police vehicle to pull you over. (i.e. a cop could not pull you over in antyhting other than his caprice, impala, crown vic) but now there are a lot of taks forces specializeing in getting traffic violators.
they now have undercover cops.
if anyone says the cop raced them , they are lieing or the cop broke the law and the ticket should be thrown out. that is entrapment. they do have cops that get supped up rice cars and supped up domestics and go to the races, but they act merely as spectators and call in the blue and whites. i know b/c a recent aquaintace that i met is driving a new corvette z06 as an undercover cop. and he explained it all to me. btw i live in chesapeake,va. southern VA
