They have standard XR6T engines and most of them get the premium brakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They now have the bigger (territory) brakes standard on the BF which is all they use on the cop cars, side bags, reverse sensors and a alloy spare.

There is also a unmarked bionic with orange stripes.I have pictures of a T from last years Indy, the copper said it was the most popular chaser on the force. The guys like the torque and handling over the XR8/SS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The T's are prefferd as they handle better and quicker off the mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
