I really can't see this catching on. I'm not an expert on the subject, but I have noticed that there are VERY few Caprice cruisers in my area. Most of the local and state cruisers are Crown Vics... Why when they don't hold a candle to the Caprice as far as power and handling... Every cop that I know said they would much rather have a Caprice than a Vic. The reason they don't have the Caprice'* anymore is because the Vics are cheaper and no one can outrun a radio.

i saw a Magnum cop car in Auburn Hills just before I got on hwy 53, it was incredible...black and white outfitted with all the cop trimmings.

Dodge really wants to get back into providing vehicles for the police....put a dent in the Impala and Crown Victoria lineup

I also have a couple of friends that are Police and they also would rather have
the Caprice over the Vics. a couple of staties still have them.

Most cops around here have Crown Vics... but they're slowily converting to Impalas.



Viper GTS-R with 700hp. Hard to outrun that.
