this is utter madness in my opinion. Yeah I can see why they want to supply to police force with 997s.....to catch speedy offenders. But damn.....techart bodykit and techart rims!!!! Now the cops have to go slow on any potholes.....
Are the 997 pictures real or photoshopped???? its just hard to believe cops have aftermarket upgrades as well..... ![Big Grin](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/biggrin.gif)

I sure like the way the other counties decorate/decal their police cars. Looks much more sharp/modern than the Crown Victorias and Impalas in the US.

from the angle yes seems but I am sure they have the sport suspension or sg like that those wheels are option here...
The German police has some nice unmarked cars with nice aftermarket tuning too...

the lambo the italian police only has 1, they got it as a present fpr some annerversary (I dunno, 200 years police or something like that).
Now, the Porsche is typical for the Autobahn police, the Netherlands (Holland) even drives them as covertibles, looks really silly when the top is open and the red light is still there! Only for high speed chases on the Autobahn, and only Autobahn. But when there is some chasing to do, a heli is usually there in a couple of minutes, its just to keep track of the dude until the high speed police car comes. There are no car chasings as I know it from the states (lived there for 6 years, I love it!!).
Now, the 5 series police car is just a everyday police car. I dunno how many of you guys every seen the Country your car comes from, but typical police city cars are 5 series and E-class and some other junk. But they drive the smallest (or second smallest) diesel engine, no funny stuff, always diesel, no exeption in the city (or rather non-Autobahn police cars). They are not for chasing bad people
, I hear we have CB radio for that.
But the 5 for Dubai (united arabic emirates, not India) looks scary, whats up with the fence in the front and back??
Oh, forgot the unmarked, its gettin scary here, unmarked cars everywhere! They drive behind or in front of you, have cameras everywhere, record everything.
But its still ok here I guess, the only thing we have to be careful of is tailgateing, speeding is legal

Common police uses a lot of Fiat of several different models; the strange thing is that most unmarked police cars are now Korean sedans (usually Hyundai Sonata) that have no market at all in Italy.
So, if you see a white or silver grey unmarked Sonata, no doubt: it's a police car!
