The GTO as a police cruiser?

Check this slide show with pics of Monaros/GTOs as cop cars.
I like the charger as a police cruiser!

The GTO would make a great interceptor vehicle, but for everyday police work the Charger is the way to go. Only problem with them is they have a plastic fuel tank and some have had holes rubbed through them due to fast driving over dips.

The Charger even looks great as a patrol car.

Na! there is a trunk for that!they would just have to carry the weapon inside the car were they need to be. shove the bad guys in the trunk and make sure there is a small exhaust leak into the trunk... Hey it would reduce the amount of people in our jails?

Nice! I wish we had them around here...I'd much rather be pulled over in my GTO by a cop in a GTO...I think they might just understand! On second thought, what a cool job that would be huh? Driving all work day in a GTO
on government gas! Man - life would be good! Not to mention having
the license to speed! Who cares about the license to kill!

I know the VA State Police were using Z-28s for awhile. I haven't seen one lately. Mybe they do have some stealth GTOs as chasers.
