Will the the new camaro become apolice/ highwaypatroll car?

 

I'm sure some departments will picka fewup.

 

Most fleet vehicles with pursuit packages are made by dodge now. You will be seeing more chargers and intrepids (untill they phase them out) picked up by PD's.

 

theres still one, that ive seen, patrol camao here in NY... idk ifits driven by police or not, butithas the lights and everything.

 

there's still a pretty nice looking state trooper z28 around here too. Solid black and clean, with the gold star badge on the door. He had lights but recently took them off, and aparently did a grille delete. It looks pretty sweet, can't wait to get pulled over by it.. (if i should ever get pulled over..lol)

 

yup good ol' Mopar got most of the PD contracts now from what i heard

 

id rather see the Zl1 as a cop car.

 

That is an interesting question and I actually doubt it. Remember that highway patrols got Camaros originally only because there were no cars meeting their basic specifications: V8, rear wheel drive, 0-60 in less than 8 seconds, good durability. Police and DOTs did not like giving up 4 doors, but they made the choice.

Today, there are a number of sedans that meet their specs, including police interceptor versions of the Hemi Charger and ChevyImpala SS (its not rear wheel drive but I see alot of them around central NC now). Any police department would rather have four doors and room for "perps" etc., than the sleeker styling.

 

Ya 75% of patrol cars here, are the Impalas. Although all the new cities and their departments are Chargers.

 

ahit if they do get the new camaro im gnna become a police officer.. haha
