Legacy Police Interceptor

I edited the grille and a friend said it looked like a police car, so I added lights...

Then another friend took another pic I had of my Legacy and has a lot more talents than me when it comes to photoshop.

I can actually imagine seeing this on the road, it does look pretty good as a interceptor. lol

Maybe in Sweden or something..

but in the US.. Taurus Interceptor (or whatever Ford is calling it) comes with a V8 and AWD (not sure if it's standard or optional) plus I think it looks far more cool. Better than that POS Charger.

Fiddled with it a little more.

The Taurus has the ecoboost v6. The Charger is no turd, have you driven one? Cops like rear wheel drive, not FWD or AWD. No replacement for diaplacement and I bet those Hemi's will outlast the Ecoboost 3-1. Just my 2 cents

However, there is a police dept somewhere in Washington state that has a Subaru cruiser.

It only makes sense that the U.S. police departments would buy American brands, not Japanese.

^However, Lafayette, IN had (maybe still has) a previous gen Legacy Squad car.

But, that one kind of makes sense.

2004 Subaru WRX STi state trooper car for Colorado.

But buying fleets, it seems to always be American.

there is an 08 STi squad running around here but it's mostly for show.

The charger interceptors are no joke.

They should sell the charger rt with the suspension and brake package of the interceptor.

you sure bout that? Watch all 6. Not saying that the ford interceptor will do all those things, but that engine will last.

I'm wondering if Ford changed the oil every 3,000 miles...as recommended in the severe duty service guidelines and performed the other maintenance as frequently? Want real world....don't follow the recommended guidelines and drive hard. Then they stick it in a brand new truck after being run on a treadmill?

I don't know....

I think I remember seeing a police STi over in Nasioc's board as well. I think it was over in CO, makes sense

I think a 5th gen as an unmarked FBI car would look good. Just the small red and blue lights on the grill and read windshield.
