NYPD Adds Dodge Muscle Car to Its Fleet
 
http://us.news3.yimg.com/us.i2.yimg....x9OfgqYRCfLg--

In a recent analysis by Michigan State Police, Chargers equipped with a V-8 engine had the quickest acceleration (6.52 seconds to 60 mph) and fastest lap time (150 mph) of any police vehicle tested.

Not impressive, if it is the fastest cop car.... :P :P :P
Maybe it's not the Hemi ;) ;) ;), definately not the srt-8's

I saw that in a Hot Rod magazine. Supposed to have been somewhere around 500 whp? Or atleast thats what it said... and in their test it was the second fastest cop car ever.

Really? it must be a different car, because the ones in the articles are just the v8 non hemi cars, and v6's.

Maybe highway patrol is getting a badass 500hp version of it.

but 6.5sec 0-60 mph, I guess it's decent for a big car, but it's not that fast. It can't be the 500hp one.

Here in MD the state troopers have one. But it's all black with lights on the visors.(got me) They also have Camaro, 06 Mustang, SER Sentra, s2000, and just last month they got a Civic Si. They dont mark any of them.

dont forget the thing probably has 1000 lbs MORE than the factory car.

trunk is full of tools / electronics, push bar, heavy duty shocks/springs/brakes, all the interior changes..
