First my Black 87 GN and now my Black 06 GT.

Did they need the IUP?

I know they used siezed drug assets to pay for the car, but did they really need the IUP?

25 MPH speed limit! If I lived there, I'd be on a first name basis with the driver of their new GT, until I lost my license.

Not that I really understood that rant anyway , but mustang cop cars are nothing new. the fox bodies were very popular interceptors in the late 80s and early 90s.
as to your question "i think is stuped why cop have to drive a mustang", they're also pretty good at high-speed chases, and not many people are gonna try to run from a mustang.

I think with ignorant comments (and the lack of English skills) like this, you're giving all Mustang owners a bad rap.

I agree, and I don't think the cops that are Mustang owners on this forum will appreciate you calling them pigs.

I guess you never heard of these then:


Mustangs used to be very popular as police cars...

No they dont. You could catch 99% of street racers in those big cube vans the cops have.

The news article said that the PD purchased the Mustang with drug seizure money .... not taxpayer money. Where did they get the money, by selling the drugs they seized? LOL!

I'm sure they found money along with the drugs....but just thought that was funny!

I used to love it when the CHP had the Fox bodied Mustangs here in So. Cal. I had one as well and it was super easy to pick them out in your rear view at night....since the headlight set up was so distinctive.

Woooa that's not a nice thing to say about anybody unless you know the office personally , then that stuff should be left from here don't you think ? I happen to know a ton of law enforcement people and they at times have a Dangerous job to do so I'd be grateful and not down , maybe find some filler and fix that chip and be Happy.

This guy needs to worry more abouth the grammer police. I think it was an attempt at English anyway. I have my doubts that this guy is on Coronado Island very often.
