this skater kid in HS got one of the blacked out interceptors, brush guards spotlights and all, and got fake sirens, a train horn, air ride, and had a sick system. He also had a bike rack on top and tried to give it that euro look… It had a “cool” factor to it but idk he used to do the same thing to get people to move and an off duty cop followed us one day into a gas station and basically yelled at us for 20 minutes and brought an on-duty cop to cite him for impersonating a police officer, luckily they couldn’t find the siren control panel (kid had it hidden well) and only found the train horn so he got off with a warning for that, but a citation for tints among other things… I agree, since I live outside NYC I see a lot of old interceptors, stupid taxis that arent yellow, etc and they always get me thinking they are cops… ---------- Post added at 10:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:34 AM ---------- > [@originalsin](#): > > ehh a fair number, some dbag around the corner from me has one in like perfect condition, and COVERS IT every night. you sure its not a marauder? ---

A “cop car” was following me all the way down Rt. 20 the other day. He eventually passed me when it turned into 4 lanes. It was 2 80-year old guys in a black base-model Crown Vic.:danny: “Cop car, 5 cars back!” ![http://www.imcdb.org/i010114.jpg](http://www.imcdb.org/i010114.jpg) ---

Its funny but Jam i’ll have to agree with you…That young punk who was riding your ass should not be in possession of a current looking ex-police car.Its people like him that give a bad rep for us who enjoy and drive ex-police cruisers. I myself have been into police package vehicles since i was 16 years old and my love for them has not changed.I don’t buy and drive these things so i can play Cop on the road or tailgate people,ect… If anything i always stay around 3-4 car lenths behind the vehicle infront of me,but thats just safe driving. Anyways,their are always going to be a few bad apples in the bunch,i leave it to the Police to sort them out. Here is a picture of me standing next to a 1994 9C1 Caprice NY State police car.I believe i was 17 years old at the time and this was back in like 1994.I had to take a picture of a picture so the quality of the pic is not the greatest.I had a friend of mine take this picture quick before the trooper asked me what the hell was i doing stading next to his car lol. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v110/Danny_LT1/04P71.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v110/Danny_LT1/04P71.jpg) Here is yet another picture taken only a few years ago of me stading next to a 2003 NYSP Crown victoria.This was back in '02 or '03. ![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v110/Danny_LT1/More%20pics/Winterballfriends040.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v110/Danny_LT1/More%20pics/Winterballfriends040.jpg) ---------- Post added at 05:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:49 PM ---------- ^Correction, That is a 2004 CVPI not a '03.The rims give it away.03’s had fewer holes in the rims than the '04 and '05 models.Also 05’s had a rear right 1/4 antenna,only for that year. ---

Jam I drive an ex state police Tahoe. 🙂 It’s my new tow vehicle/daily. They come with upgrades that happen to be conducive to towing, like a massive radiator, engine oil cooler, tranny cooler, dual batteries, etc. ![http://innovativetuningdl.com/images/06Tahoe/PickupDayAtLake.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/2/f/2f2d483c23b01d33a81d9caebaf6d874050ba057.jpeg) > [@Jeller](#): > > My thoughts also^ and I am guilty of this too. > > I would think it would be annoying to drive an ex cop car. Everyone would slow down when I am behind them, that would piss me off. Sometimes on the highway people are afraid to pass until they realize I’m not a trooper, but that’s about it. If the car has a brush guard and whatnot I can see it being more confusing. ---

My friend has a black out police interceptor, tint, spotlight, and i think some extra antennas in the decklid.
