S550 Police Interceptors - the definitive thread

[13GetThere]

I knew Louisville Metro PD had at least 1 S550. They used to have several S197's , and Louisville is a Ford town. But now Radcliff has one.
I'm surrounded!

Got a few here in El Paso. Red, blue, and the hardest to ID is the black one.

Thanks for adding pics! Def hard to spot the logos on that one too if not in bright light!

So, do the Officers flip a coin to see who gets one of these for their shift? Or maybe a strategic bottle is passed off to the motor pool…:-)

They have one for sure in Myrtle Beach, Dark gray, pure stealth, regular plates. Without blue lights on you would never know.
Does anyone know if they are run of the mill GTs or PP1

This would be the car! Saw it when I was back home getting some tires put on my New Edge GT’s wheels. MBPB has always had a trend of putting confiscated cars in use (assuming that’s the story here too). When I was a kid I remember seeing them rolling around in a brand new Lincoln Navigator that was a drug bust vehicle.

Time for a bump - if anyone has some newly found info/S550 Interceptor content to post, please do!!

Thank God we don't have this crap in California. I don't want my taxes buying Mustangs for yahoo cops. That said, I liked the pics of the ones that crashed.

This is pretty cool. We don’t have any around here that I’m aware, although our local PD used to use confiscated cars for the D.A.R.E program. Even had a F body Camaro on a full drag setup (with chute and wheelie bar). C4 Corvette as well.

I know here in Jax, round I-295 there is a silver mustang gt and its FHP… 100% unmarked… looks like a regular base model gt until all the lights go on…. I hate that shit… should be illegal

They're not Police Interceptors

THIS is a Police Interceptor.

But wait...

 

[Prodigal]

At Cobra Jets request. Watch your six in South Carolina!

 

[vanquishvzla]

At least that one is marked… a couple days ago i saw a silver ford fusion… unmarked… with all the lights on. I don’t remember if it was a small accident or a traffic stop… but an unmarked silver fusion must be one of the most sleeper police car I’ve seen… completely under the radar

Germany Interceptor:

MotorTrend’s article of the above German Police S550:
https://www.motortrend.com/news/german-ford-mustang-cop-car-demands-respect-authority/

This thing is just a publicity stunt by the German tuning industry for a campaign for law-abiding tuning "TUNE IT! SAFE!".
I would bet that if a real cop ever sat in it, it was only for a photo shoot.
In any case, the car has never experienced a patrol.
In consideration of this, I would remove it from the list if I were you.

I'm not pulling over unless the car is clearly marked and plated as LEO.

Anyone can install lights on their vehicle.
