My fiend's mom bought a Crown Vic way back that was supposed to have been an unmarked police cruiser. A new sales guy screwed up and sold it to her. They tried to get it back, but the paperwork had already been processed and his mom wouldn't let it go. I think the salesman got canned for that little mistake. Matt said that thing will seriously haul @ss!

Any Crown Vic will haul @ss! One toe on the accelerator & you're doing 95mph! Great to drive, Biatch to park!

I race cops all the time in my Yaris.
1.5L does its job. Japanese muscle all the way!
Highway Patrol, LAPD... They are so slow.

Or maybe it's because I'm an old school racer. I mean 6 months of driving experience is no joke, you know. That's why I'm able to keep it safe going 100mph through school zone.

Interceptors, bikes, SWAT vans - don't matter to me. I just smoke 'em for fun, you know. But helis - those are the best.

What can I say, this is how I roll!
