( www.tflcar.com ) Starting in 2011 keep your eyes in your rear view mirror for this new Australian built GM Caprice police car. In Denver today at the annual International Association of Chiefs of Police, General Motors removed the wraps from the 2011 Chevy Caprice Police Patrol Vehicle (PPV). GM displayed the prototype while at the same time confirming plans to build the V-8 and V-6 Caprice that will only be available to police departments and not the general public.

its a rebadge holden commodore
Yeah, have you had a proper look? Mitsubishi is Chrysler anyways, so it would make sense.
Except that they look like Mitsubishi Lancer’s
Actually it is named a Holden Caprice and the Chevrolet Caprice’s are actually just re-badged Holden Caprice’s. The difference between a Caprice and a COMMODORE (you misspelt it) is the caprice is built on a stationwagon chassis so it has a longer wheelbase than the Commodore
Except the new PI is alot lighter and is twin-turbo. So it would take longer for the caprice to reach that speed. The caprice is only running a LS3 6.0L V8 whereas the PI is running a Twin-turbo V6 (don’t know the displacement) I’d still take the Caprice any day though.
Actually this car is a re-badged Holden Caprice. The difference between the Caprice and the G8 is the caprice is built on a stationwagon chassis so it has alot longer wheelbase than the G8. Alot more room too
Actually it is a re-badged Holden Caprice. The Pontiac G8 is a re-badged Holden Commodore used for the american market. The difference between the caprice and the G8 is the caprice is built on a stationwagon chassis so it has alot longer wheelbase than the standard G8/Commodore. Alot more room too
fuck the chevy the crown vic lasted longer and knocked the old ones off the market they couldnt keep up and will never fuck you chevy piece of shit ALL CROWN VIC HERE
So this is pretty much a G8 GXP????
The ECO Boost is best in class, with it’s twin turbo…Chevy is Nice, but the Ford is got the edge.
Cant be a fact without tests being conducted. So its an opinion
6.0L Caprice beats out the PI in top out speed by about 5 mph.
I Dusted a taurus in my nissan v8 swap rwd. the taurus is nice quick but it wack the tahoe stood up thow i scared
I wish we had these at my agency. I could live with these or the Crown Vic. The best police patrol cars in my opinion were the old Chevy Impala like 1991, 1992 and 1993. The had room, were fast and handle very well.
The glock is Austrian…
Or maybe comodo’s for a comodo dragon!
Yeah, and all those officers are carrying those American Glocks too!
So, being built in Australia for AMERICAN POLICE. Way to go GM. FORD is making thier interceptor here in AMERICA for AMERICAN POLICE. Tards!!
In Oz their nicknamed commodes, why? because their a crap can on wheels
Hey if you guys could do a Comaro V6 Vs Mustang V6 2012 or 13 that would be great. If you havent done so already. Love you guys reviews.
We have two new Police Interceptor’s on the lot. I cannot wait until I get mine. I would advise GM to just stop making cars for cops. V6 with over 300 horse power, all wheel drive. The interior designed specifically for police. GM once again comes up short!
Up in Edmonton, we just got a bunch of Dodge Chargers. THOSE are good police cars.
