As someone that grew up in NYC, that car is legendary in NY. That car was frequently parked on an entrance ramp to the Clearview Expressway in Bayside, NY. The Clearview is a straight and flat highway that begged to go fast on. I remember it literally laying in the weeds waiting to nab speeders. Everyone knew to go the speed limit on that stretch.

Any idea where the other blue/white '88 or the white/blue '93 are? I found this through a Google search.

I think the museum story will make a awesome read for everyone to enjoy...

I've been wanting to do something like that, to showcase the SSPs we have, along with the other Mustangs we've acquired over the years and share their stories.

Jonathon, if you can put something down in Word and email it along with photos, Mike and I can add your feature to the Spotlight page. I am sure a lot of folks who cannot make it down your way would love to read up about your efforts.

Has anyone else seen this? Nice to see they do have a Mustang. Given that they spare no expense on these cars, I find it interesting they opted for a Roush instead of a GT500.

Dubai's $6.5 Million Police Fleet, The World's Fastest Police Cars

The Dubai police force are the proud owners of a 'super fleet,' a mass of high end sports cars from all over the world. Their latest addition to the fleet is the $1.6 million dollar Bugatti Veyron, capable of doing 267mph and from 0-60 mph in 2.5 seconds. However, these vehicles are not used to chase criminals, but instead as a PR mechanism. Heralded as the most progressive of the Arab police forces, they drive the fleet to various tourist attractions in Dubai as a means of connecting with citizens and tourists. It’s also another way for Dubai to flaunt their enormous wealth.
