I usually respond with the "No, you can't search anything" (even though I never have\do anything they can get me for) so then we sit around for a while before either they get bored or a K-9 unit does a walk around of my car.
The best "reason" I've gotten was "Your car fits the description of one we are looking for."

A friend of mine drives a very modded PT Cruiser. He has been a soldier and works for the US government. He lives in VA. He continuously gets pulled over for DWB's and whatever officer will usually end up citing him for, get this: Improper sized tires, illegal tail lights, etc. To have to go to court to explain why his tires are perfectly legal is a complete waste of his good time and taxpayers' money.
Myself having a mildly modded PT, I have been pulled over on really dumb excuses, have the car checked out for illegalities then sent on my way. (I mean, come on, 3 cars use a shoulder to get off the highway, but I'm the only one in the line pulled over for it while Ms. Minivan goes on her merry way? Or, going through a yellow, then being told I ran a light, but 'Ok. I'm going to just check your car for illegal add-ons. Do you have regulation headlights?) WTF?
