Any thing under the hood better about the charger than stock. I valet cars and have driven a bunch of chargers and feel that they are a little lacking. Any reasonable sports car could smoke the charger

i worked on a few of them. but most of the departments that we worked for had a no pursuit policy so they were i think the 3.5L.
5.7L engine and we do have a pursuit policly. They are much quicker than the Crown Vics. The reasonable sports car might smoke the Chagers but they have a hard time ditching our radios and Gaurdian One (King County's Helicopter).

This car is broken for police work without a hemi!!!!!
I'd take the crown vic (police interceptor) any day over a charger without a hemi!
It does look very aggressive though, nice and appealing to the eye!

Living north of the border is proving to be tough to get the mods that I want for my Toy(ota).
The RCMP are slow in getting the Crown Vics replaced but the smaller town/city departments have been running some Chargers for more than a year up here. The trend of FJs with black steel wheels must be affecting me cuz I really like the black steelies on the Chargers. At the car show on the weekend (Speed Sport East in Moncton NB) I saw more than a few stock cars running black steel wheels from a company called Basset....They make a good looking steelie...
OK so I looked and they do make wheels for trucks....but only in 15 inch.....grrrrrrr....Nice prices too....figures!!!!

" I am a small lotto win away from being mentioned in the " I spotted you in SoCal" thread".......
yea, i have heard that down the highway, the chargers walk away from the crown vics. and thats coming from a few CHP officers that were going to calls with local PD's running the 5.7 chargers.
Yeah, as a cop car those chargers are pretty bad ass , the Georgia state patrol started using them a year or so ago. Very intimidating in the rear view, and way cool looking. Kind of a modern day race car with blue lights and some dukes of hazard radio antennas
sorry for the fuzziness. i took it while driving from my FJ as i was leaving testing at the academy. ive seen it on hwy 99 before. it is pretty much a show/publicity car.
