The Z (any color) probably guarantees that if you get pulled over you WILL get a ticket of some sort. So I've driven this car the slowest of our last half-dozen cars, and so far ... knock wood ...

Let me amend that. We always drive with radar detectors. Always. And within 50 miles of our home we know the roads pretty well. So we only speed up in places we know they can't possibly be hiding. Then we just have to look out for unmarked Crown Vics (either white or black).

Err ... let me amend that again. The first blip you get on a radar detector, unless you're getting a false alarm from a mall or a road construction sign, you put the brakes down NOW. I'm pretty sure I've been in the "kill zone" a few times, but because of aggressive braking, they haven't had a radar result they can use.
