As you can imagine, there are some key differences from the standard CV


While the engines on cop cars aren't really upgraded froma regular Crown Vic, the suspensions are. The big thing is that the anti-sway bars are much bigger and thicker. That alone makes a big difference. Once I buy mine, if I like it, I'm going to upgrade the exhaust, rims and tires, and ... Well ...that's about it. I might buy a different springs to lower it just a little bit. but any performance mods you think about doing to the engine that would really make a difference or just too expensive. Like superchargers or dumb stuff like that. No sense in throwing that kind of money at a cheap car.
