    Why do people assume these are fast? They are 3.5L V6s not Hemis right?

    They are probably no faster than the old crown vics they just look cool.

    Testing results:

    I read somewhere else that the Charger comes with the proper mounting gear for police equipment (radio, computer, shotgun, etc.) whereas on the Crown Vics. it is extra, so the price works out about the same.

    I wonder what kind of bumper these have, is it all plastic? If you do a PIT maneuver does the bumper rip off?

    Unlike the civilian version, the police version features upgraded heavy-duty brakes, a severe-duty cooling system, police-performance Electronic Stability Program, police performance-tuned steering, and a gear shifter that is mounted on the steering column instead of in the center console.[2] In place of the center console, Dodge has equipped the police edition with a steel plate appropriate for mounting radio equipment and controllers for lights and sirens.The 340 hp 'Hemi' V8 is powerful enough to accelerate the car from 0 to 60 mph in six seconds and to a top speed of 150 mph.

    Word on that. I drove by a unmarked charger police car..distinctly had the hemi badge on the side there.
