Most people know how poor the american police cars are; Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptors. They have V10, and weight a couple of tons. There are Chevrolet Impalas and Chevroley Camaros. There are also a few Corvette Police cars, but mostly body-rollin Crown Vicks.

Umm sorry to burst your bubble but the Crown Victorias have V8's not V10's and they aren't exactly the slowest cars and they have heavily modified suspensions and brakes with special tires aswell. And there are alot of Mustangs out there aswell and some of them were built by Roush but are still stock looking. You see a Hummer every once in a while too. Sadly the Impala's are piles of shit with their front wheel drive and V6's

I think that the Crown Victoria has almost the same engine as the Mustang....

4.6 V8.....of course the Mustang has a little more HP....

they had a 5.0 in the standard Caprice and then there was the 9C1 police package that used the 5.7 LT1 engine but before the body style you showed in the pic they all had 5.0's there was the Impala SS with the same 5.7 sold for civilian use and now a lot of people are buying old retired 9C1 Caprice's and moddifying the hell out of them and I've seen a couple with new LS6 motors in them and quite a few of the normal C5 engines.
