Beats a Crown Victoria, huh.

That's great


The way some people drive in Italy one would think they were already being pursued by one of these.

An airplane or helicopter makes way more sense for high speed pursuit. Gift or not just wait till they get hit with maintanence and repair costs - Italian drivers are pretty agressive. I doubt there's a used car in Rome that doesn't have a dent. The gift that keeps on giving.

I view this as a publicity "stunt". Seems to have worked. And I'm sure the officers aren't complaining.

Ditto on that Rick -

What are you saying. . .that they shouldn't be styling when doing 150mph?


They are Italian, you know.
