    The perfect tool for chasing down fornicators, transvestites, gays, and casual drug users, so as not to offend all the foreign investment by people who aren't really bothered by any of those things.

    In reply to Abu Dhabi Gets A Nissan GT-R Police Car
    Well, now I want to know a Crown Vic's ring time.

    Still, my first reaction when seeing this was that if there's anywhere that needed something like this, it's the UAE. But then I'd imagine anything this is needed to catch, it'd be driven by someone who'll easily pay off the fine, followed by building a skyscraper in the shape of Christopher Walken, just because.

    Hopefully the new Interceptor will be up to the durability standards of the Crown Vic.

    We spent some serious time over the weekend trying to kill one and let me tell you, it wasn't easy. It just kept going.

    It finally took lots of fire and several rifle rounds to make it officially dead. This was after many hours of Davidsfarm levels of hooning.

    Long live the Vic. #policecars

    If they're smart, CV cop accessories will fit on the new one and cabbies and grampa will be able to buy them, too. Otherwise, they're better off riding the CV tooling 'til the end of the petroleum age. #policecars

    @Scandinavian Flick: I love playing 'spot-the-cop!' Though they've been getting trickier lately... using Impalas and Ford Explorers... Still, haven't gotten a ticket in years now and everyone's amazed I can spot a cop car from out of nowhere. #policecars

    @okidokedork: hey me too. I have only had one speeding ticket. The tricky jerk tagged me as he was merging onto the freeway. I can usually spot those smokeys (pardon my crappy movie reference) a mile away or more. #policecars

    @okidokedork: heh, same here. I also use the slight reflection off the push bar as an indicator. The subtle glint from the light bar is a good indicator from behind.

    Our local finest have mostly been getting Chargers, but there are a LOT of Tahoes lately too. I have seen some really sneaky ones with Camrys on occasion, especially on the windy backroads at night, and increased enforcement on Highway 9... #policecars

    @FrankGrimes: I got mine when I was on my learners permit, my mother was in the passenger seat. Got me for 19 over the limit (really it was 20 or so, but thankfully he didn't want to ruin my driving record so soon). Ever since then I've been a hawk about spotting them.

    Or just driving like a normal law-abiding citizen when I'm too tired to care. #policecars

    I would think the phrase "engineered in america" would preclude the aussie models. My guess is an edited mustang chassis; probably turn it into a four door sedan and either give it the Crown Vic or Fairmont name. #policecars

    I half wished that they had used the face lift that they used on the 2002 Ford Interceptor concept. It wasn't pretty by any means, but it was intimidating and did look pretty cool.

    I just wonder what it is about this new generation of Police cars makes it so taboo for them to be sold in civilian versions. We've heard the argument for the Caprice, and we have all called BS on it.

    What's the argument from Ford this time? #policecars
