Default ZR1 police car

It's just a chop.



Here's the article that came with it:

Make my day: Corvette ZR1 police car

Bob Lutz has just posted a photochop on his GM Fastlane Blog of what the Corvette ZR1 could look like donning Michigan State Police livery. Bound to be the bane of speeders in the Wolverine state, the Corvette is sporting all the cop car traits necessary to scare the living Hell out of law breakers, including the prerequisite light bar, bumper guard (!) and spotlights. We, however, are particularly partial to the blacked out 20-spoke rollers. Despite lacking nanotechnology and more spoiler blades than a Cuisinart, we think this imaginary ZR1 cop car could give the new sci fi-inspired GT500KR-based KITT car a run for its money.

UPDATE: GM let us know this is not a prototype or anything official that implies a ZR1 cop car would actually be built. Someone sent this photoshopped pic of the ZR1 cop car to Lutz and he liked it enough to throw it up on his blog, much to the surprise of the PR department who didn't know anything about when we called.

I would never want the police to have that car

Then what would be the point of police chases

i doubt it would be very good with the pit maneuver. catching the car is only 1/2 of the job, getting it to stop is the harder 1/2.

On the flip side of that is... how good is the pit maneuver if you can't catch up to the car?
