I wasn't talking about the current Impies, I was talking about the not yet available Caprice's. Here's the presser and some excerpts:

My Dad was a cop (retired, disability, it's a hard life and tons of credit to anyone who deals with the worst in society day in and day out!) and at 6'4" 250, he was pumped about this presser when I showed it to him. FWIW, his favorite cruiser's were the 351 powered LTD II's.

I've been reading about Carbon Motors, and I really don't expect much from them. That looks like one seriously overpriced bucket, compared to value added.
And if they demand their own service contracts too...no way Jose`.

Oops... yeah, the G8 definately had an L76 (and that's what I was thinking of) and the VVT L92 is a different animal.

Both cars are rated about the same for acceleration, where Dodge beats both. I had the MSP testing #'s somewhere. Can't really outrun the radio anyway.
The Impala has more front seat room than the Crown Vic. Much better suited for two deputies. Neither car has any back seat room with the cages, but that's only a concern for the people that have to ride back there for the short trip.
