Goes to show how perfectly setup these cars are from the factory, when tuners actually make them... well, not faster? That's like that new twin supercharged Novitec Ferrari F430 thing... 636hp up from the standard car's 482hp... loses a tenth hitting 100km/h (3.5 vs 3.6). Not sure about the 1/4 times, but they're something stupidly close too....

Why is it that police forces around the globe get off on getting a cop car all done up and show it off - its just a marketing stunt, the same as how they rolled 12 red F6 Typhoons out for the NSW Police during easter.
It'll still be a normal XR6/8 which catches you, the fancy ones are off doing photo-shoots. Awesome use of taxpayer money I say. |

WTF??...In Suahili, perhaps....not in German, mate...used Babblefish??? ....911 Cop cars are the exception....they usually drive Mercs or VW Passats on the Autobahn - a 911 is dispatched in an extreme emergency. German Police chasing a car on the Autobahn is also the exception - we dont play those US games when travelling far above 200kmh. When needed, the Autobahn is simply shut down at the next exit - Traffic stops, so must the suspect. Oh, and German cops do NOT leave an escape gap (like the US Cops).

Just the same as Motortrend hit 60mph in 3.2 sec on an icey runway in the new 911 Turbo... Porsche claims 3.7s (3.9 to 100km/h).

Just watched a show on Foxtel last night called Autobahn. It was awesome. They showed how the Autobahn is made, maintained and operated right from road crews right through to emergency response teams that are strategically located so they can be anywhere in 15mins. They even have a truck with brushes on it that cleans the white posts!!! The Polizei use these high performance cars as they need to keep up with all the high performance vehicles on the autobahn. Apparently only 2/3 of the road is open speed limits.
For anyone that has Foxtel, it is on again at 2pm today on Nat Geo. Very well worth watching, hopefully they'll repeat it again soon but nothing is listed for the next week.
