At the very least the car should have gone to auction and the PD be forced to bid on it against others.

NYC uses lots of seized vehicles... from Porches to Benzes. They use them for undercover work. The best one I love to see is the NYC yellow taxi... they catch speeders with that one all the time. I can pick it out of a crowd because the taxi cab number on the top doesn't match the license plate.
