I read some magazine article where they tested a bunch of cop cars and the Crown Vics were really slow. I wish I could find the article but I'm sure that magazine is long gone. It was something like 16's at 80-something, and maybe 129 mph top speed? The highway patrol camaros did 13.9 at 100 and limited to just under 160 top speed- the only decently quick cop car.

you know nothing about crown vic PI's do you? they dont have a 302 and they dont weigh 5000 pounds, they can move pretty good, prolly faster then 60% of the cars on here, and that LT1 vette isnt to quick.......
