He said I was going 57 MPH in a 45, and I had no idea because I was going with the flow of traffic. Something that pissed me off was this red Lexus that was blowing past everybody and changing lanes in intersections where the cop flashed his lights. I was kinda mad, he was about 20 feet from the 50 MPH sign. In the end, he "Gave me a break" and cited me for failure to follow traffic sign that was $167 after I told him I was going to college here and didn't know the area. Better than $200 moving violation, but still he only pulled me over because of my car. Now, I am a college student so paying the car off is already a pain and this ticket wasn't helping.

All in all, if you find yourself in Sanford, FL or Winter Haven, FL. Go the speed limit, maybe even a tad under it because cops will pull you over.
I've heard of many similar experiences. It's regrettable, but on the upside your car does turn heads, even if it's the head of the guy who pulled you over.
