Secret Cop Car Features 🤫

[Central-Scrutinizer]

"Do you know how fast you were going?"
"Literally NO."

[BLD]

"It's got cop shocks, cop suspension and a 440 cubic inch cop motor" to us Blues Brothers fans. 😅

So when cops speed past me for no reason, they know exactly how fast they are going.

So what you’re saying is that if I get pulled over for speeding, I can blame the manufacturer of the car for not allowing the general public access to an accurate speedometer.

[norwegianzound]

A lot of criminals seem to know where the super secret button is, apparently.

[MasonCatalone]

Dodge: "You can't get the law enforcement powertrain in your car."
Ford: "Here you go."

[rick]

They're not available to the public until there's a police auction 😮

[chasepalagi]

It amazes me how often I see criminals circumvent that "super secret button" on YouTube.

[jmartyt]

Certified only works if it's tested and calibrated regularly.

[dustinearls]

For anyone that wants to know, the button that locks the shifter is on the floor

[jakefromstate]

The liscense plate reading "Not Cop" is great

[prelaunchboarocuh]

The public is fully capable and allowed to get brakes, suspensions, and tires that are way better than what cruisers have.

[PurpleHaze]

And they are gonna idle that engine until the cam and lifters eat each other.

[ingodwerockmusic]

Cop inside the PD: Hey John, some guy is out there popping the hood on your cruiser...

[cjvan]

There's also the performance computer chip. I used to drive a cab long ago. The state and city would auction off there police interceptors whenever the warranty ran out. I had one with the cop suspension, cop breaks, even a cop tires, and the difference was incredible. No performance chip though. They kept that. I still was able to stay up with a Porsche 911. I had a little bit more acceleration on the straightaways, but it could take the turns better than I. Considering the terrain, it ended up being a draw.

So you’re telling me that if I want a v8 awd charger, I just have to find a retired cop car

[needsmoreboosters]

If you're wondering about the speedo, it's largely so they can pace with you and use that speedo reading as evidence that you were speeding.

[ckev]

That feature to stop people stealing your car is awesome, I've always wondered how often it must happen when cops need to respond to things urgently.

[TactiClaus]

The old body chargers from 2014 cpuld be ordered with the V8 AWD as well. Not just the new bodies.

The speedometer needs regular calibration to be used in court due to wear. Anyone can get their speedometer calibrated at certified shops.
