An eventful saturday, Celica encounter on the PCH Options

[airfron]

On Saturday i was down at Huntington Beach with my girlfriend getting some lunch and when we went to leave there were three biker cops sitting on their bikes talking to each other i drive past them and sure enough one of them turns on his lights beeps his siren and pulls me over on the corner of the pch and main, a big traffic area and also a pretty big shopping area. he asks me a bunch of questions about my car and tells me to pop the hood so i oblige him and he spends 10 minutes inspecting my stock engine i was so embarassed everyone was staring at me like i was a criminal, and in the end he could only give me a fix-it ticket for my front plate. in all the officer seemed angry like that was the only citation he could give me. i swear lately the one-time's always trying to catch me ridin' dirty... and it's not gonna happen.

anyways right when i pulled away and was driving up the PCH i saw a gt with an invader kit that had some kind of custom blue paintjob, dark tinted windows, and a "Straight Legit" sticker accross the hatch window, a real clean looking car... and i was wondering if anyone knew a celica in the Long Beach area that matches that description.

isnt it illegal for a cop to ask you to "pop your hood" without reason? my lawyer told me it was, but then again this is north carolina, we dont have high restrictions.
