i want one
Wow, I can't believe the state highway patrol got an Subaru STI. Not cheap... You know that they just wanted a reason to be able to drive one. Talk about a fun car to have to drive for work. Not to mention they get to flog it. Damn, now I want to join Co state patrol.[Twist]
It is definitely not to save on markings and lights. They have integrated lights which cost a lot more than a light bar.
They are good to have to nab guys buying don't think regular traffic cops should get unmarked cruisers. It is good for for detectives to nail drug dealers but to pull someone over for speeding isn't cool in an unmarked car in my book.
duh
it's all about revenue
Nice.... really nice.
Those would work great for unpaved roads too.

I like seeing unmarked police cars, hopefully they'll nail some of the bad drivers.
A friend of mine is a Lakewood cop and I had asked him about this a few years ago and he had told me it was 90% revenue issues - that the cost to outfit a police cruiser with the graphics was about $5K and they figured it was better to have more cars than anything so they either skimped on graphics for some cruisers or left them totally off in order to budget in more cruisers.
unmarked cars have never fooled anyone in the city . i tell my gal " if " she were to get pulled over by an unmarked car to drive to the nearest public place to get the ticket . if the cop has a problem with it then ill just have to lawyer up . the safety of my lady is worth to two min it takes to drive to safety . any reasonable cop should understand and if they dont well ...
