What's the purpose of having extra power if you can't use it. Passing legally in a Camaro, or any other performance car, it is very easy to go faster than the speed limit as compared to a Corolla. It is usually much safer as performance cars pass quicker and handle and brake better. I just don't get impounding the car for going up to 50km/h(31mph) over in a 100km/h(62mph) for this. I would definitely fight this and get a lawyer if you feel you were in the right, or at least not wreckless, and the officer was being illogical in his decision to impound the car. Did he get you on Radar/Lidar? If so, did he show you? Or was this just a visual? I don't know how LE in Canada is compared to the USA. I could live with the ticket, but, I would be pissed for the impoundment.
