    Saw the car on the internet yesterday... pretty cool indeed

    BTW, the Italian car is mainly used for the transport of donor organs and the fast response to car accidents. They have some life saving devices on board.

    Why oh why did I not decide to become a police officer?

    In other news, my county now has a whole fleet of unmarked Lancer Evo 8 FQ320s. I've seen 2 different ones already ... they're used for catching speeding drivers here. The officers on board aren't in plain clothes though, and you can see the blue lights in the rear window even when they're not on. Not hard to spot.

    They use Volvo V70's and S40's for that over here in the southern part of the country. I believe in that in other parts of the country they mainly use Astra's and Mondeo's...

    We use Volvo's here too, but they're usually marked cars. Get quite a few Astra squad cars in London. England is too boring to merit a Spyker or a Lambo though. Best we've ever had was the Lotus Esprit pursuit car, and that was just the guys at Lotus having a laugh

    I wonder wouldn't it be a little bit annoying hearing the sound of the siren in a convertible car?

    Awesome without a doubt, but I don't like the paint job.

    Is this like the same thing Lamborghini did, or is it just a show piece for the police?

    Either way, really cool. I'm surprised it's a Spyder though.

    Over here in Vancouver we've got the Nissan Maxima 3.5 SE. It's nailed more than a few unsuspecting suckers.

    devon and Cornwall constabulary have unmarked Mondeo ST's but thats about as quick as they get down here. I was following one when a car over-took me and the ST on double whites. I was surprised just how quickly it took off after him.
