[VIDEO] Fake Corvette Z06 Police Car Goes on a Donut Run

We know cops are supposed to like doughnuts, but this Corvette driver carried that clichÃ© to a new level. The owner of this C6 Z06 decorated his car up to look like a police car, complete with “Call 911″ on the side, as he took part in the Streetgasm Tour, a Gumball-style rally that covered 2,000 miles in Germany. He may have tricked a few of the slower police officers over there, all in good

Corvette Stingray Police Car for Sale in Sweden

Ya, in Sweden!

That’s where you’ll find one of the most unlikeliest Black and Whites around.

Of course we’re talking about this 2014 Corvette Stingray, dressed in black with white doors and the word “POLICE” emblazoned on the doors and hood.

The police car livery is similar to and may have been inspired by Barricade, the Saleen Mustang Decepticon police car in the last Transformers movie.

That car also has similar markings to the “Barricade” Mustang including the “911 Emergency Response” and the good-guys catch phrase “to protect and serve”. However, this Corvette Stingray police car has giant Stingray graphics on the door and hood while its missing the Decepticon badges from the movie car.

The Stingray is listed for sale for the steep price of 780,000 Swedish Krona which translates to 87,180 Euros or $120,177 US dollars. It comes equipped with the Z51 performance package, but other than that, everything else looks fairly standard on the car.

So why does the Corvette have the black and white police livery? We have no idea but think it’s cool none the less. Check out the pics and imagine that feeling in your gut if you saw this Stingray in your rear-view mirrors!
