Imagine some ricer-tard in their R33 hooning down Kwinana FWY and being intercepted by that baby.

They'd sh*t their pants right there and then!

In one of the recent motor mags they have mentioned porsche 997 911 turboes as highway patrol cars in germany.........nothing would stand a chance trying to outrun one of them.

Seen it before. It's no suprise though. They have autobahns and heaps of Porsches, Ferrari, Lamborghinis using those roads. But could it keep up with a McLaren F1? :P

i can confirm that sighting, got overtaken by one the otehr day lol ... BUT


even more interestinga re their undercover cars: They use old body shells like 94 to 98 Audis, BMWs, Mercs etc and put the latest spiced up V8s into them. Top speed of 250+ are nothing unusual. One of them nearly caught me out for doing something stupid lol :

Haha, you know whats funny? When I was over there for X-Mas, we went to the drags on boxing day, and one the way back there were 3 Ricer R33's trying to show off.

Apparently it's used for high speed organ transplant transport around Italy, and not as a revenue raising device. Was donated by Lambo for some celebration - can't remember what, probably a Lambo birthday or production milestone.

I think this 1998 Camaro Z28 would be a nasty police car to try and run from...





Engine? 775hp, nitroused LS1 V8....
