I was going to mention that! Probably a nice sleeper in it's day - I wonder how much the police suspension stiffened the handling. Still probably weighs less than a new 300.

Cool car but OP joined just to Pimp this auction and the opening bid is too much so...
I am a big fan of these. I have stories. 
Also, the Virginia State Police used to sell them back in the day by SEALED bids. The marked cars had to be repainted. Unmarked cars were the ones to get. Jet black with blue interior. Gorgeous.

The listing is over, but there weren't any bids on it.
