It makes perfect sense considering the speed potential of some cars on German Autobahns.

Very interesting Klink...

As for the germans, I wouldn't be surprised that there would still be cars on the autobahn that would easily pull away from them.

The only dilemma would be where to put the crooks when you did catch them. wait half an hour for the crappy old paddy wagon to catch up.

That is by far the hottest Porsche I have ever seen (besides Carrera GT). Love the wheels too.
Is the German Police Force recruiting at the moment??

While yes, there may be some vehicles capable of outrunning the HWP cars, if that fails time to bring in an aircraft .

300 km/h shouldn't be too hard for a plane to achieve. Maybe even a chopper.

Plane not hard to achieve, but you'd need a high performance twin to do over 160 knots (around 300kmh), chopper would be very hard. Most choppers like the bell jetranger and others have a max cruise speed of about 120 knots (220-230 kmh). You would need to spend huge megabucks to get a chopper capable of doing over 160 knots.

Could anyone make out who tuned and body-kitted that Porsche? One of the most subtle yet muscular kits I've ever seen. Wonder how those wheels would look on a GT?

The German coppers should take on the Italians.....


Lambo donated them a blue Gellado (forgive me if this is spelt incorrectly) with engine, suspension and brake mods. = many people in Ferraris, Massers etc handed speeding tickets.

Some very nice cop cars there. Especially the Lambo and Porsche.

Just a quick correction, this car uses Whelen LEDs. I'm glad you didn't post the rear shot though, not the best arrangement I've seen. See more at www.copcar.com . The photo galleries are free to view but you have to be a member to use the forum.
