chuckzul Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 We have a French engineer who is in town this week and I showed him this article and he agrees with it. He hates French cars and says he'll never buy another French car. He goes on to say that this is a huge slap in the face for France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garandman Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 A related article called "Best Cars for Cops" noted that Subaru inquired about having one tested. Crown Vic has 85% of the market in the US. Dodge Charger The Charger, when equipped with a 5.7-liter V-8 engine, had the quickest acceleration (6.52 seconds to 60 miles per hour), the fastest top speed (150 miles per hour) and quickest average lap time of the vehicles tested by the Michigan State police. The police version of the Charger has high-performance braking and suspension systems and is electronically regulated to a top speed of 145 mph. (A DaimlerChrysler spokeswoman attributed the test results to ideal conditions on the day of the test.) Civilian Charger R/Ts are regulated to 126 mph. The Charger Daytona comes closer, with an electronically regulated top speed of 142 mph. The police Charger also allows the driver to completely turn off electronic stability control, something that can't be done on any civilian version. One real down side was a relative lack of trunk space compared to the Crown Victoria Police Interceptor. Not that the Charger doesn't have a big trunk. It's just that the Crown Vic's is huge. The Charger also scored worst of all the vehicles in ergonomics, something a DaimlerChrysler spokeswoman attributed to the testing officers' lack of experience with the Charger's body design. http://i.cnn.net/money/popups/2006/autos/police/magnum_gallery.jpg Who Dares Wins スバル Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
