1st time: a week after i bought it, the guy i bought it from had put green headlight is it which is illegal in my state - i just hadnt got my new HID lights in yet.
2nd time: a month after i got it for doing 66 in a 55 in a turn, i was just playing the awesome handling.

In my G I got pull over on the 3rd day. On my birthday for tints. Cops did't care just wanted to fill their quota.
I should have been pulled over this morning. I went up into triple digits(late for work) and passed a trooper where they usually don't hide. i have no idea why he didn't come after me.
It's ridiculous that the NYC freeway max is 50.

Cops LOVE to look at my day-glow Nogaro Red Z, so I've learned to curtail my hooning and leave it for the rare track day. I've never been pulled over since I purchased the car in 2009 (knock on wood). When I owned my previous car, a Mitsubishi Eclipse, I got pulled over less than a week after owning it while tearing down this stretch of backroad through a National Forest. The Ranger was on the side of the road, eating his luch when I went by (probably doing about 80 in a 55 zone). He told me that if he had his radar on, he'd have given me a ticket in a heartbeat, but all he could give me was a warning. I got two more warnings and one ticket in the Eclipse, which I got out of since it was the first ticket I ever got. It was a lot easier to throw that car around compared to the Z. I haven't had a ticket since I got the Z though.

About 2.5 years after getting my Z, got pulled over twice in the span of about a month for my window tint, 1 warning, 1 ticket. Then about a year later, got a ticket for rolling a stop at 11:00 at night. Couple months after that I got a warning for 60 in 45. I feel like I'm due for one soon, but my V1 is helping me prolong the inevitable.

When I first bought my 350z people kept telling me that I'm going to get pulled over very often.....6 months later I still haven't gotten pulled over.
So how long did it take for you to get pulled over after buying your Z?
and cool funny stories if you have some of getting pulled over

Knocking on wood as I type this but Never. Did get a few hateful looks as I drove by few cops. Could have been just there bad nature showing through. I have the need for speed and do my best to not get caught. No risk in life, very little fun!

I've had mine for a year and I'm still waiting for this to happen, although i had a close call last week coming off a roundabout sideways only to see the feds, they much have been preoccupied as the roundabout was quite tall with foliage, they didn't see tire smoke so i was in the clear.

1 month but it was bs. I got pulled over going 13 miles over the speed limit in a 40 because the lane I was in turned into a right turn lane a 1/2 mile up the road. There was a line of cars so I couldn't slow down to merge, so I just sped up to get over and got nailed by a cop on a motorcycle, who by the way was illegally parked on the side walk with his motorcycle. That was a while ago. I got a radar detector right after that and haven't gotten one since.

Let's just say I've never been caught lol. A couple state troopers did pull out after me several times but I either was going too fast for them to catch up or I got off at the closest exit or side street and waited until the heat died down. A couple times I plastidipped my car into an attractive color like red or yellow and just ripped it off as soon as I found a safe hiding spot then merged with traffic like nothing happened.
