thats cool...however I once got pulled over by a clean 03 silver GT with two undercovers in it and the car had the blue and red lights in the grille and on the dash. Got pulled of for being suspicious...back in my pot smoking days when i was 17 pickin up a sack... They were cool guys we talked about whats done to their car and how I wanted a GT ( had a v6 back then).so glad im done with that s**t. Just beer now lol

There used to be a lot more than just a couple in the NE staties. They started life as LX 5.0s and had the police interceptor motors and I believe 4-spd manual trannies in them. I had a friend that got one and it was nice. I haven't been 'home' in about 10 years, so have no knowledge about the S197s, but I can believe it.
Here in Florida there is a Lamb police car...

I think ive seen pic of that Lamb police car before. Ive only seen the S197 once, and it was fleeting at 75mph on the other side of the highway. My GF says she sees it more often, maybe I can get her to snap a pic of it next time.....Or maybe we are having a shared dream experience, then I wont care BOUT THE s197 and take advantage of THAT! lol

Our state police uses 5.0 Mustangs, unmarked. I've seen 3 or 4 different ones.

In fact, the other day I was driving down the highway, and just past a toll booth were 2 GT's, pulling people over. Also, parked at the toll booth was a Camaro and Corvette, so I wondered if those were unmarked too, or maybe they were the cops' personal cars.

Sneaky, sneaky.
