Red G35 coupe owners

Im looking into the G37 and am considering red. What do you all think about having a red car? Is your insurance premium higher because of it and are you targeted more by cops?

Not at all my insuurance is 100.00 a month full coverage! I've had my G a little over a year and have not been pulled over yet. Lightly modded with the usual rims, system, intake, wheels, lowered and some other goodies.

My insurance did not go up, and I've only gotten 1 ticket that was richly deserved.

maybe it just stands out more, but if you're not doing anything bad then theres nothing to be afraid of.

Prior to wanting a G35 I never really considered getting a red car...but the G35 looks great in red.

Red Is Good

I have a red one and my insurance din't go up at all. The cops dont seem to notiice me anymore than the other cars. The more mods you add to it, u might draw attention that way. It's a great car enjoy it!!!

Either you are getting severely ripped off or you have a terrible driving record. Full coverage for $6,000 per year? I hope you are exaggerating.

P.S. I would never insure a car with just liability, full coverage is the way to go.

laser red by far! I was talking to this random guy about red cars before I got the G a few years ago, and he said because of the blood in your eyes (retina sp?) that a red car is barely noticable b.c it blends with the blood and pigment in your eyes. of course it depends what color of eyes you have, but after thinking about it made sense.....I do notice yellow cars more often than red!
