The side shot looks really close to a Infiniti Q45 and a cross between a 2008 or so Audi A8. I actually think it looks pretty good.

I doubt they are fast. The interior looks like **** & the exterior is bland as hell.

I seen one of these in my apartment complex about 1-2 months ago, there's a cop that lives here and usually drives a Tahoe. I had to do a double take when I seen the Caprice, it was a champagne color instead of the standard black or white.

I don't see why they wouldn't be about the same as a G8.

I should have been more specific, I was referring to the performance.

How much heavier is the caprice vs the G8?

Caprise LTZ (similar to SS) 3971 LBS, G8 GT is 3909 LBS so they are about the same. G8 > caprice anyday and oh dont forget the LS3 lol

EDIT: caprices and performance dont go hand in hand..they are low 14s high 13s cars.

I made another assumption I guess. I assumed the powertrain was similar between the G8 and the Caprice.

Ya earlier in this tread I said the cars are gonna be availiable to the public and I don't know if that's absolutely right. At my dealership the guy who ordes the cars/options/colors said that it looks like he can order them but there is only black and the options aren't there. He ordered three and it went threw so were see.

Another thing is the public can order a cop car if they want from what I understand. Someone at my dealership actually bought one new. He's our fleet manager so he did it to help with sales. So if I really wanted to I guess I could buy a police version. Hell it comes with nav and a spotlight!

That could be the most impractical cop car ive ever seen. Only cops that will be using that interior is higher ups and undercovers who dont do traffic stops or lock people up.
