    Nowhere. I read about the BMW connection in an article on the internets.

    The article makes me think that it's American. But, is it? As we all know from one of the many Fleet500 vs. world threads, American police buy American cars.
    "Kimi, can you improve on your [race] finish?"
    "No. My Finnish is fine; I am from Finland. Do you have any water?"

    the front is aggressive, but the profile is very bland
    and i don't really see any specialties other than the built in bull bars and lights

    Didn't ford come out with something like this a number of years ago? I believe it looked quite a bit like a crown vic but I thought there were a number of significant changes

    Yes, Ford did have an interceptor concept:


    One of Ford's leading areas is commercial sales so it makes sense for them to look in that direction. Not sure what happened to it though. This was from 2002. What is confusing is in 2007, they had a new 'Interceptor concept' that had nothing to do with police vehicles. It was good looking, but I don't think we heard more out of that one either.

    But who will they be selling the cars to?

    Both Ford and GM both want to put out cars to police departments. I like GM's offering better than Ford, Ford's using the Taurus. Yuck.
