BTW cops did use Lumina’s- Ive seen a few. Mainly small town departments. Im pretty sure Schoharie had atleast one at some point. And have you ever seen the awd turbo ~'97 Elantra at LVD? 10 second car. Single turbo Mitsubishi motor (those bodystyle Elantras used Mitsubishi motors stock) though. ---
