Diecast Chevy Caprice Cop Car
American cop cars should always be large, gas-guzzling monsters of the road. Forget how they do it in Europe and South America with them tiny Peugots and what-nots. The way things are going in America - cap and trade, regulations on light bulbs - the "green" crowd will have lobbied the government to the point that all big American cars will soon be eradicated off the face of the Earth.
My Diecast Car of the Day™ is this Chevy Caprice Cop Car from some Chinese company (I think.) This diecast is actually a piggy bank. Lift the trunk lid and drop in your change.
The tires feel like real rubber. The cop lights, side mirrors, door panels and front grill treatment are spot on. The diecast is approx. 1/18 scale and it's pretty hefty. The detail is great. I love the classic black and white cop car look.

i got pulled over by one of these before. but it wasn't diecast. it was much bigger, and there was a police officer driving it..
ReplyDeletethese cars are awesome in real life. i must say the back seat is more comfortable than you think.
