I was driving around yesterday, and saw the a purple honda civic undercover.. I guess it had pulled over someone. From a distance, I thought it was just a show car or something with strobes.. and that maybe it hit the car in front of it.. but when I got closer and passed it by.. it had red and blue strobes in the front and rear windshield.. Anyone else seen any undercover cars that are out of the ordinary ?
Also.. I guess if there are Undercover Civic Cops out there.. look out for who you try to run on the street.

Usually some of the Undercover cars are owned by cops or detectives. My neighbor put Police Sirens, Strobes, Radio into his 325i. He was a detective, why he turned his personal car into Cop car.[HR][/HR]​
a LONG while ago i saw an undercover Audi 4000 Quattro cop car in Elmira, NY once. nobody believed me until they saw it too.

i love 4000s quattros. My brother has one for a beater and it's a blast. Replacing a bent control arm/blown wheel bearing is a pain though....

Re: Honda Civic Undercover ?! (NOT VTEC)

Its the real reson why to use purple Hondas etc as undecover cars, so as the general public doesnt recognize them or suspect that they are cop cars. Here in my town the nudercover cars are easy to detect as the cops dont do very much to disguise them. One is a 92 Camry with two big Hella fog lights stuck into the grill, you can see the blue bulbs a loooooong way. Then they have a 95 Mondeo (aka Contour) that everybody knows, there is hardly any car here in town that is so beat up and scratched as this Mondeo. It too has extra fog lights with blue bulbs, in adiition to the factory bumper fog lights. Then there is a Nissan Primera with Hella lights with blue buls and a Volvo 240 they had for years, this one also had Hella lights in the grille, complete with blue bulbs.
As if this wasnt enough, when the boys in blue wear their uniforms as well, who do they think they are fooling? Noone, as everybody knows what cars they drive

I have seen a green Honda Accord V6 EX sedan used as an undercover police car in my little town's highway. You won't noticed it until you see the yellow jacket that RCMP wears on duty.

Re: Honda Civic Undercover ?! (jaydub)

Saw an unmarked Chevy Trailblazer that had pulled someone over today. A week ago I saw a marked F-150. It was marked but thats the first time I've seen a cop in a pickup truck on the higway. I don't give pick-ups a second glance as far as whether or not its a cop, guess I will now.
Oh yeah.. this is in DC.

Re: Honda Civic Undercover ?! (MkIII)

A riced out Honda Civic would be the perfect unmarked cop car. Imagine the looks on the faces of little racer boys who try to bait an unmarked rice car onto a street race. Nobody would ever suspect it. If I were my Police Department, I'd start building these out. It would be even cooler if the only markings on the unmarked Civics are false Type-R badges.

Re: Honda Civic Undercover ?! (fastfour)

The weirdest cop car I've seen in Tucson was an unmark Jeep Cherokee. Not that weird, but suprising none the less.
They also have a totally slammed lowrider Caprice. Chrome wheels, crazy paint and everything. I think they just use it for promos and PR, not to pull people over though.
