There are still a few B4C '02 Camaro plain state cruisers here in Mass on the road, however, they are starting to show up at state surplus auctions, most of which are pretty clapped out. I have a licensed used car dealer friend who gets all the lists of state cars going off for auction and he's in the know on this....9 of 10 = USED AND ABUSED, but sometimes real cheap, especially if they go off in lots, which is common.

The 5.7 Chargers are low 14 second cars stock and have an electronically limited top speed of 126. They will run about 155-160 with the limiter removed. I think Crown Vics are only good for high 15s if that?

the limiter has been removed or at least bumped up for the intercepter edition, and the crown vics are low 16 second cars.

I saw a Silver Fusion or Ford 500 pulled over on I495 early last week. Oh, and no I didn't mean it was pulled over, It had PULLED someone over.

I drive by the state police station on I-84 every day, except for the occasional 3.8 Impala they're still just using Crown Vics.

Yes, and chargers now as well. I live in albany and i have seen one. Albany pd also uses the magnums. Imagine getting pulled over by a station wagon.

I go to Umass amherst, and they have a dark blue or black charger undercover car, its like almost impossible to spot out at night. The only reason i know its a cop car is because everynight they have someone pulled over right outside my dorm.
As for ct state cops, i wouldnt mess around on 84, they have a pretty crazy ls1 camaro cop car, and from what ive heard, it goes just as fast in reverse as forwards, hahaha....

Unmarked blue charger here in MD too. Usually hunting on rt. 29 between baltimore and DC. Don't know if he's state, county, or what but he's ALWAYS got some poor bastard fooled and pulled over!
