Default Re: Which cars will Australia Police force use once no more Australian made cars?

It is going to be so weird seeing police cars that aren't Commodores here in SA. At my local station, practically 100% of the marked cars are VE Commodores (some VFs have started to be phased in too).
It will be a funny sight to see a 4 cylinder FWD police car trying to pull over a speeding driver in a RWD V8 or I6T!
The VE Commodore has made a great patrol car because with those big flared guards and wide body, it looks tough and has a lot of presence... I laugh when I see a Camry police car, they don't look mean at all.
In fact, I can't remember ever seeing a patrol car in my local area that wasn't either a Commodore or some sort of 4WD (paddy wagon), they don't even seem to use Falcons here.
