I'd like to come check out the rides. I'll be the guy in the **GULP** white Crown Vic ex-cop car. Don't worry, it's just a daily beater. I buy and sell 'em all the time, along with other cars. I had an '00 B4C Camaro courtesy of the Texas Highway Patrol, and have my eye on a '99 from another department. Here's my old '00:

It was around $8.5k, but that was in 2003. It had 81k miles, and the engine had been replaced at 57k (dealership, about $9k), and the trans was replaced at 78k. I got an inch-thick stack of records, including every single part ever bought (including the 7 sets of front brake pads!), and every gallon of gas ever used. I had the black repainted, and left the white, for about $700. They put the clown car paint job on them so people will KNOW it's no longer a DPS car when you drive it home. I sold it on ebay for $11k, after owning it for about 6 months.

Are you saying they intentionally put that funky white stripe on there,before selling it? If so, that's fucked up.

Yes. That's primer from a spray paint can.

It's better than what they did years ago ('90s), which was to give the cars a complete paint job that was absolutely awful. It made Maaco look like a show car paint job.

Yeah, when I got there at 11, it was dead. Just a couple black Trans Ams running up and down Mason. (Not racing each other, going opposite directions)
