Police GT

So Virginia's Finest have themselves a new police car. Black, 2011 Ford Mustang GT, very dark tinted windows. Very sock looking - no tape stripes, just black. Little blue strobes in the rear quarter panel windows.

Saw it yesterday on Route 28 north near Dulles Airport.

The only detectors that are undetectable by the police are the Bel sti driver and escort redline.

Doesn't help when you blast past a black Mustang GT thinking some high school kid is driving it only to find out it's Johnny Law.

Yup I work right by the sully station police department and I see the mustang every single day with somebody pulled over. Also yesterday around the same area I saw an unmarked dodge caravan have some poor guy pulled over on 50.

And yesterday by the courthouse i saw a marked what looked to be like a VW GTI or Passat wagon with herndon police written on it.

The e36 conv. Is old news, the plates say "seized" it came by my highschool ages ago to show off.

Not to mention all the chargers, Magnums, challengers, tahoe's and old camaro's.

I got hit a couple times with laser in Montgomery county and that is when I sold my escort passport.

Yeah those ones aren't even tempting to race as they are kinda slow unless they have FI or n2o and you can usually tell when they do. If it was a 2011........that's a differnt story. I've been searching for one to hurt their feelings but no luck so far.

Manassas used to have a Camaro SS back around like 01-02. Same story. Super black windows and no markings. I saw it, or what I thought was it a couple times, but never had any run ins because I was wise to their tactics. I did hear a couple stories about it revving on people at lights to egg them on and hitting the lights as soon as they sped off. Shady man.......shady

Can we just put GPS trackers in their cars? It'd make my life so much easier.

Thats what I do... hit up the local cop motorpool at 2am, put magnetic GPS beacons under all the cars, then track them on my droid app. Works great...

What, you guys dont do that?
