The statistics on sanity are that one out of every four Americans is suffering from some form of mental illness. Think of your three best friends. If they're okay, then it's you.

What planet are you on?
A Civic Type-R (Si to you) would do the job with double the performance for two thirds of the economy and about 5x the handling quotient.

As much as I hate diesels they do a good job as police cars.

Or maybe the Euro Civic Type-S, with 158bhp and 5 doors
Of course... the criminals will run out of fuel before you do

So just follow them patiently...In the back, duh

They might as well want to drive an Audi A2 1.2 TDI... just in case...

No... go the whole hog... Audi A8 4.2 TDi, with an engine nicked out of a luxury yachtThey might as well want to drive an Audi A2 1.2 TDI... just in case...

That's gold, I love it."This is the police. Keep driving. You're up Shit Creek."
"Congratulations sir, you're nicked. Now please stop, turn around, and follow me to the station"

And in which U.S. policemen prefer not to have to cram the criminals into the back seat of an econobox.
They also prefer the comfort and smooth ride of a Crown Victoria compared to a subcompact bouncing them up and down.

I should also point out that the CVs used by the police have heavy duty suspension, therefore saying that a Civic has "about 5x the handling quotient" is a ridiculous claim.

Whoop-de-do, heavy duty suspension. The CV is still a floppy BOF heavy sedan. Upgrading the suspension on them is like sticking a silencer on a revolver.....

I'm assuming you got the wrong end of the stick here, as handling does not exist on a CV
I was talking about when you push the steering wheel through your hands to turn corners. In a chase, a Civic would kick the crap out of any CV.
And who knows- stick a couple of ram bars on the front, get 'heavy duty suspension' () and then the cops can enjoy catching more criminals...
And as for shoving them in the back- who gives a shit about how well they fit? They're cons. You want them comfortable?
And 22mpg is ridiculous. In Britain we have cars that can achieve 53mpg ona 'highway' and still get from 0-60 in 9.4 secs (Honda Accord iCDTi, FYI...).
