> However I got pulled over by the police for speeding about quarterly in the BMW, and have not been pulled over a single time in more than five years in my new car.
In car fan circles, this is called a “sleeper” - a car whose boring design and boring color doesn’t draw attention from police. That’s not a negative at all - it’s great! Car fans often buy sleepers on purpose.
Historical sleeper examples include the Ford Taurus SHO, Chevy SS sedan, and Audi S6. I had a 2003 Audi RS6, a notorious sleeper. Looked totally plain, but could absolutely fly, and I never got a ticket in it despite some truly hair raising speeds.
