I love the RT wheels on the 300. Gives it a more athletic look.

Stan Smith from American Dad drove a cartoon 300C last night...and you know he works for the CIA :wink:

I also like the RT wheels on the 300...but I think I would like the police package black steel rims on there a lil better

I would take it as an honor that police officer know that your car is fast. My humble opinion.

Is it right hand drive or just a reversed photo?

Looks like a "stateside" plate to me.

If you check the link below it, it says....Chrysler 300C Police Car - Australia...and there is a nice write up on it too

Think I can make out a 2 and 3 that look the right way on the plate also....I think its a right hand drive :racing:

I can confirm that it is RHD. Chrysler Australia loaned the Midnight Blue 300C Hemi to the Victorian Police force here as a joint promotion. Those wheels are the ones we get standard on 300Cs in Australia.

With those alloy wheels on it... it would make it a 'Specialize Police Vehicle' by Chryslers police package standard. Only steel wheels are rated for the full police package.

Looks hawt tho :rock:

I have a P71 Crown Vic, and the high speed stability is just amazing. These police interceptors share very few parts with the civilian counterparts. They're a totally different animal. I'm looking foward to getting a closer look at the Charger police hemi.

That is an interesting comment. The Police Interceptors years ago here in OZ always had steel wheels but these days they run on the standard factory alloys which are the common fitment for the normal models.

Holden (GM) did a similar promotion a couple of years back with a Monaro (GTO).

We are hoping to get the Police to bring the 300C Police Car along to the next Meet & Greet we have organised here in Melbourne. Chrylser HQ is speaking to them about it.

That car is too "Classy" to be a police car...

Back in the '50s and '60s the NJ State Police ran Chrsyler Newports on the NJ Turnpike. They had the big 413 and were painted grey instead of the black and white that regular units got. These Chryslers were known as Grey Ghosts.

Well, it says "Police" on the side, not "Ecilop". :roll:

So are charger and magnum taxis, but the chargers are the most popular rental car ;)

It's pitiful to see a poor 300 taxi though :( I saw a v8 one and almost cried.

It looks great only thing for delivery they put steel wheels on a patrol car no alloys used in case they are in a pursuit and loose control and hit a curb or median ....

I know the NYPD has atleast a few black unmarked 300's with strobe light packages. I saw one all lit up at Citi field a few weeks ago.

I like those wheels on the 300 too. In my new sig, you'll see what they look like in black. A little more CIA than Police though. :)

In the movie 'The Island', their cop cars were 300's. Magnums were in that movie too.
