    yes. I am a huge fan of the 300/Magnum. Although if it were to replace the Crown Vic, then no.

    Not sure about the handling, but it sure has the power that a cop needs and more space for their stuff than actual police cars.

    EDIT: But I couldn't care less, I don't plan on being a cop and I don't like them much. If this car is gonna help them to help me then cool, but if this car is just going to require me to pay higher taxes to pay for it then screw it. Crime in this city is not an issue, those cars will only be behind me putting me a ticket.

    To whoever who doesn't know me, I live in Boca Raton, Fl.... Crime is definitely an issue in Caracas.

    Yea sure why not

    but think about it... how much would these cars actually cost? and all that money the government need to get these cars will come out of YOUR pocket!

    What a coincidence, I was just editing my post to talk about higher taxes due to these cars and you just mentioned this.

    No. Its too much a temptation for cops, to want to just flip on the sirens and blast through lights. OK as their interceptor/chase car but not the whole fleet. As riksta said, "I'm paying for the gas". The fleets should be Malibu Maxx.

    I don't think they should use that car. Definitely a waste of our money i agree.

    Around here the cops drive Chevy Impala's and Dodge Stratus. Anyone else have these?

    Mostly Crown Vics, some SUVs, and even saw a New Beetle. The meter minders drive EVs(single-seater little box), which I think is great!!

    well im not so sure itd cost a ton more. think about how much a cop car costs, they do so much tuning and refining on them the price is probably just as high as a stock magnum. there wouldnt need to be as much fine tuning on these. i like its looks, but i see what Niko is saying and he has a good point.

    Milwaukee uses a healthy mix of Corvette, a bunch of Crown Vics, a handful of Impala's, and a handful of Blazers.

    where are you? Cause up in the north woods of wisonsin they have loads of Jeeps and only about 2 crown vics. In Jerome, AZ, a town in the side of a mountain, they have one caprice and 7 jeeps.
