That'd be a first for a US police agency... an import car?

Yeah, Connecticut uses imports as state vehicles as well. Hey, what can ya say
Although, I think it's fuckin hysterical that while trying to "combat street racing" they are simply buying into the Game more than fighting it. I bet Subaru donated it as an ad.

Also, if a WRX were in my mirror, telling me to pull over "looking like a cop" Pulling over would be the last thing I would do. Fuck that. Catch me, just like all the other WRXs !

And I'm sorry, but Crown Vic police package cruisers are faster than WRXs.

Basically, they are now participating in street racing - Only they have a badge and are above the law.

I'm sorry but no. Stock civilian CVs are faster than PI CVs. There are no engine mods besides extra alternators (extra weight) under the hood. There are computers, cages, and tons of poliece equipment in the PI CVs as well.
PI CVs are heavy, and have stock Ford engines. WRXs would murder a CV, Civilian or Police Interceptors.

Entrapment and Inticement are two diffrent things. That is the way it was explained to me. Its like when a undercover cop walks up to some one that might be selling drugs and offers them 50 bucks for a sack, that is inticement. Entrapment would be shoving the 50 bucks in his hand and pulling a gun on him forcing him to sell the dope.
There is a blue mustange here in Spokane that looks bone stock, complete with plates that require tags. He has pulled up next to me and revved his shit at me. Somone pulled a ricer fly by on the stang thinking he was badass and the cop busted him.

Police CVs do have extra work done to the motors. but nothing major. police cars are run in some casees 24/7 unless it's the officers own car. The officers keep two sets of keys on them, 1 for the car to leave it running and another for when they get out they lock the car while its still running. If anything happens they can jump in the car and floor it. So the engines get a shit load of use and as with anything that gets beat on. HP will slowly lower over the months. so even with the extra mods, they wont be any faster then your normal CV unless of course it was stright out of the factory.

No. No they don't. Christ... I was watching all about this on the History channel about police cars from past to present. They do NOT HAVE ANYTHING BUT EXTRA ALTERNATORS under the hood.

I'm going to have to agree with this one. I saw the episode on the discovery channel about police cars through history. They dont have anything extra done to their engines. It was on about a week ago I believe.
