Nabsie..[p]Of course there are auto WRX (at least 5 years back).. what makes you think otherwise?[p]www.carsales.com.au, go to vehicle comparison, and then research a vehicle. Choose any year model you like.[p]In either case, they are specialty pusuit cars.. So I agree they would definitely be manual.[p]

Yeah i guess, the worst is any movie which shows chevy caprice or ford crown vics chasing ANY car and keeping up. Like 2 slow 2 be serious, i watch last night with rogue, the copper mobiles were keeping up with the EVO. Even a stock evo could outrun a crown vic, no trouble. Anyway, I'm not buying that viper, looks photochopped. All it has is the bar lights on top, no paint job or anything.

Actually, I believe it is real. I forget where I found it, but I've seen it on the net a lot. When I first saw it, there was actually a story with it about how they got it. It was involved in a drug run and the police confiscated it when they cought the guy. And some way or another the police department got to keep it, so now if there's a illegal drug activity, they use it instead of the regular police cars because most of the drug running cars are high end sports cars. I can't verify any of that, but that's the short version of what I read when I first found that picture. It's a cool pic either way though!

Yeah i didnt notice the reflection of the lights on top. Pretty bad ass car the coppers have. That thing must be expensive to maintain though, maybe not since its dodge...

due to the plethora of drug running the el paso,tx police dept has 2 vipers. at the university of north texas where i attend school the have a highly modified cobra mustang, although i hate the mustang the one here is 400+ hp. the rule as i was told by the university cop that drives the cobra is that if a squad makes a bust of some sort that is over x amount of dollars they are allowed to keep the vehicle. this sounds like BS but i was told this by the copper.
