I think a better question would be - would they even try to catch them? I think a Ferrari or Porsche could probably outrun a cop car anyday. If a cop sees a Civic speeding down the road - it's like it has a big target painted on the back... of course they'll go after the Civic.
Not that it should be acceptable that Porsches or Ferraris are going that fast on the roads, but it seems that's the case... People would be more inclined to tell their buddies "Hey I saw this wicked Ferrari screaming down the road today"... if they saw a Civic driving by at the same speed, they might call the cops immediately.
There is an Italian festival close to where I work right now, and there are tons of Ferraris around. They even close the roads off to show them off! I'm willing to bet at least one of them has participated in a high speed road race before...
Damn double standards.
