Overall, I love my V1, but it has those problems from time to time. GM brake lights cause false laser warnings, wrong direction indicator, etc. I always thought the wrong direction was due to reflected radar off the rear-view mirror, as I have never had radar from the back show as from the front (always the other way).

I was hit with real laser the other day. The guy was at least 1/4 mile away when he fired, and kept it on me right up until I passed him. So here is the question: I was under the impression that a black Z was basically invisible to laser. No front plate, black absorbs all colors, plastic car, no vertical surface. Black seats, no grill to speak of. The only reflective items are the corner lights, which would diffuse and redirect the laser. Am I right??? If not, where is the target on the car? I figured he was PO'd because he could not read me - why else would he shoot me for 30 seconds straight (25mph zone, I was at 31 when first hit, dropped to 30. In Fla, you cannot get a ticket for 5 over.)
