The newest car to be used by Italian Police is seen in this photo made available by Italian police Thursday, May, 13, 2004. This high performance 2-seater Laborghini Gallardo car, using a V10 cylinder DOHC four valve V90 5 liter, 500 Hp engine, can reach the top speed of 309 km/h (192 Mph). The car, received by Italian Police as a gift from the Italian car factory, will be used along highways in southern Italy. (AP Photo/Italian Police)

I would hate to see this thing in my rear view mirror...

Yea, if I was zipping down the road and looked into the mirror to see that, I think I'd burst into tears on the spot.

Scorps

Confederate

Jackebear

Old signature just wasn't doing it for me anymore, so now I have this new one. It's equally as stupid but at least it looks really long. I'm probably just going to keep typing until I run out of things to babble about and see how many people actually read this. I once ran down a hill, fell down and hurt my elbow; my mom said I would be ok, she kissed it and made it all better. I've run out of things to say now, so if you have read this whole thing, congratulations you get a gold star!

WarWagon

Damn, I'd be happy with a US police interceptor camaro...

acpower

I want to be an Italian police officer...

Cynthetiq

while the ride maybe sweet the uniform doesn't look so cool. Heck even dorky... and where do they put the hat when driving?

Scorps

whats with the guy on the left?

does he have a sign on his back or what is that?

WarWagon

Its a bullseye. He's the diversion for the rest of the cops when someone tries to carjack them. Notice how they have 5 cops standing around a single police vehicle?

BoCo

Sounds like a bribe.

ikewando

I wonder how many fights that precinct has had over who have that beat?

Rabelais

If Italian cops get Lambos, what do Yugoslavian cops get?

Asuka{eve}

t-72 tank?

castex

I can't seem to see any sort of searchlight on the roof. They won't get very far without one of those - one of the Carabinieri's favourite japes is to creep up behind at night and shine 5billion megawatts of light into your car: mildly disconcerting when you're busy rolling a joint and steering with your knees.

Silvy

What do you think they got under the hood?
Enough gigawatts to send you so far back to the future, you'll end up in the past....
