I have to disagree. That blower is outrageous, uncalled for, and pretty much tasteless. I wish I had one .

Sweet cars, but I would move the light bar to the inside. And I guess the Air dam would be very important!!!

To tell you the truth, I don't think either of those two cars can do 155 + unless they have some low gears...

I've seen those cars in person at the 2001 Houston Autorama. The Firebird has an L03 under the hood and the blower is fake(plastic). The Chevy is all real.

Well, here in Nebraska I have begun to see quite a few Sheriff Camaro Z28s:nono: Not sure if they are Z28s but they have dual exhaust, and I don't see why they would use a V6 Camaro.
I'm not planning on ever being pulled over. But if I am, I hope it is by one of those. They look pretty nice.

Nice pic but for that bel-air to do 100+ for more than a few seconds with no aerodynamic aids would be a scary thought seeing the fact that it has the drag coefficiant of a brick wall. Still acool pic though.
