Some coppers have Camaro Z28 cars. If you like Chevy. :P I'd go with a Lambo, and add those LED lights with a red and blue tint for the lights!

The rear wheel well being cut so low kills the look of trying to be a police cruiser IMO.. Looks good nevertheless, though!

Got me there.. BUT, I was referring to the cruisers you see nowadays. The latest ones don't has a low cut well (at least to what I've seen).. Plus, it's just my opinion whether I like the low cut or not. Just trying to give some input .
