so had said driver been sober he could have outrun without much problem the police cars, and hell i think even the police choppers would have had a problem keeping up, only problem is even on a full tank the diablo would end up empty within a few miles:)

although the police viehical stats are classified i do believe that most counties have squad cars for high speed pusuits. . .i know there are a few in LA and there are people in Europe who use porsches and i *think* lambo's to chase exceptionally fast speeders

There's a picture...

You're doing 85 in a 65 zone, you look in your mirror, and you see a Diablo with it's flashing lights on pulling you over!

Dutch police HAD Porsche 911 cabrio's.
They have undercover Volvo V70T5's, some VW Passat Syncro VR6 and a Subaru Impreza WRX.

German police has mercedes chase cars, probably AMG models but you can't see that from the outside

I have seen some police around here driving Camaro's and Mustang's and I'm willing to bet that they are for high speed pursuit.
