Wa state driver's beware... In addition to the wsp's undercover Impala's, and volvo's add the dodge charger.
Saw a dark blue one today pulling over a car on I-5 south, Thurston county.
Dark blue, strobe light's in the grill. Didn't even pay any attention to it untill he turned on his light's and pulled the car next to me over.
Sneaky.

Saw a NBM Tahoe a few weeks back, totally unmarked/no way to tell (tinted windows, no markings, etc) and then last week I saw a damn Chevy Astro (style) van that was also totally unmarked..........they pretty much seem to have whatever they want/any kind of car that is out there.

Seized them? I'm assuming this is criminal forfeiture (in personam). How aggressive was their driving to have this happen?
I know the federal government has this power (4th amendment) but several fed statutes and then the 14th amendment were passed to limit this power to the states. Imma gonna getta mah gun...

And you don't have to buy a "fleet" to get Fleet pricing......you just tag along on the sale to several other larger agencies, kinda like a group purchase for cop cars.

We are behind the times over in Spokane! 
Just recently I have seen Impala's (in the last two years or so). Have seen maybe one SUV and a few Astro Vans and one or two 00+ Mustang GT. No charger sightings yet, though I have seen a odd one... Ford Windstar, lights and all!
At first glance I thought it was a joke, maybe a friend messing with a friend, as I got closer, saw all the gadgets in the van and a uniformed officer step out.
As for taking the vehicles, I remember watching a Cops episode that they raided a dealers house and he had a mid 70's Vette, clean as clean can get! They left him a message that they took the car and his drugs and they will be back for him!

As for the Camaro being long gone.......I have seen a white one (marked'ish) as recently as a few months ago as have others on the board in the Lynnwood/Everett stretch of I-5. Not trying to be confrontational, just trying to clear the air & find out where your info is from.
I just saw a white Wrangler trooper in Everett pulling someone over on tues. Seems like anyting and everything. Maybe we'll see some unmarked Ferrari pulling people over soon...
