What's wrong with Canadians? Anyways, seems photochopped and if it is it's a good one! But then again, looks like the camera is just a piece. Hints that make it seem photo chopped: 1) Never seen a cop car with sunroof 2) Where's the sirens on the roof? If you ask me, that's a bad job for an undercover since it says RCMP right on the side of the vehicle. O well, beats the boats! Probably just a toy car to entertain the kids
HAHA, now they will never catch me!!!!!! meh, its prolly one of those DARE cops cars, cause they always have the cool ones that appeal to kids. the one in my elementary school had a camaro, not even highway patrol, just a regular one.
Anyone want to read how one of the way northeast states has a Lamborgini Diablo (sp?) as a D.A.R.E. car? Read on...
Ok, I have a friend that lived in New Hampshire. This maybe the state that it's in, but I forgot. Anyway, some cops were on the side of a highway just sitting with the radar running. Well, one Friday night, around 2 am or whatever, the Radar blinked "150" then, nothing. The next Friday, about the same time, in the same spot, the radar bleeps "150" and then nothing. The following Friday, the identical thing happens. So by the 4th week, the cops put a road block about a mile down on the highway.
It was a Lamborgini Diablo painted Radar Resistant black. The driver had his lights off and was wearing night vission googles. When they searched the car, he had an enormous amount of Cocain or Heroin that he was running up from Miami.
Hell of a story. Feel free to correct and fill in the gaps if anyone knows the whole story.
If you doubt me, Hot Wheels has a Diablo D.A.R.E. car, as well as others (caramos, etc.) Peace.
Tell me the last time you saw a 50 with a stick. Thing about it, in a persuit would you wanna be shifting gears, weaving in/out of traffic and tring to use the radio at the same time? It's an auto...
everybody screams photo chop too soon. there are lots of cop cars with no sirens on the roof where im from. the cops confiscate lots of cars and use them. they can use a celica too.
ya, there are plenty of cop cars without the sirens on the roof. Not all are undercover either, they'll be in the normal white cop cars but they'll have the lights on the front bumper or the rear window and stuff.
And that story about the Diablo is awesome That's pretty cool how he had night vision and everything. Glad he finally got busted
it makes absoultey no sense to have a celica cop car. although it is sportier than the typcal crown victoria..the crown vic would smoke even a hooked up celica. (also, all 5-0 cop cars come equipped with the "polic package" which is a nice way of saying its a pretty fast crown victoria)
i've seen corvette cop cars before, but that actually makes sense when speed plays an issue. having a celica cop car is just another way to waste taxpayers $$.
not sayin real or not, but they do have cop cars that dont have the lights on top, only lights in the windows
around here there are plenty cop cars w/out lights on top. they do this because it is much easier to sneak up on a person when all they see is a seemingly typical car driving behind you. (i always check the driver's side, side view mirror to see if it has a search light attached to it. around here no cop car is allowed to pull you over without at least having decals, a search light, and lights at least in the front & rear windows)
sneaky bastards haha

radar resistant black? isnt that just "black". i mean, after all...the radar was blinking 150.
and i doub the story, although i do not doubt diablo dare cars..i've heard something like it before.

lets hope it is photochopped after all.
they didnt buy it, they just confiscated it and stuck their tags on it.

i doubt it. theres virtually no such thing as a "confiscated new car" anymore. its so rare. almost all new cars that are "confiscated" are owned by a bank (there almost always owned by a bank because most people do not have the money to just buy a car outright. and if they did..they would just put that money as down payment on a better car) where they are returned and then sent to auction. (if a person did actually own the car outright, it is considerred that particular persons property and the only thing authorities can do is temporarily seize the car (if it was used for whatever illegal purpose). police have no right to seize and own a car, it always belongs to someone. (bank or individual)
bottom line...in all likelihood it was not confiscated...cars play a little differently than all that missing marijuana lol

Ha ha! Yeah, but what about Government and police auctions, eh? policeauctions.com and whatever. Look, if the title is yours and you get arrested for trafficing drugs or murder, and get sentenced to 20+ years, they are not gonna leave your car in an impound lot for you when and if you get out of prison.
Hey, Gunny Pa, if you read this and know how it works, give us a post. For those who don't know, he's an ex-cop. He may be able to help.

government and police auctions are what i was talking about when i said "go to auction" let me give an example:
i have a car. i got a loan from a bank. i decide not to pay my car note for whatever reason. the authorities (police) seize "my" car (a.k.a. bank repossession). the bank obviously doesnt want it because it is useless to them. car goes to auction (police auction, whatever). bank gets the $$ from whoever bought the car minus police fees.
and yes,i STILL owe bank $$ for the car. can't pay? try bankruptcy.
