Is that for real? I mean $200,000 for a patrol car?? Tell me this is just a sponsorship or something like that.

Sorry, I should have explained for out of state people. The CHP gets people to loan them the latest and greatest and the put stickers on the car for auto shows. Officers will have their picture taken with kids. Overall, I think its a nice PR thing for the CHP to do. Carlson is a local p-car dealer here. I believe they arranged for this.

On the other hand, this show is right by I-280/Sand Hill Road area which is notorious for, uh, fast ultra-exotic cars going very fast. So, maybe this is the latest edition to the CHP chase car fleet...

Not only are they here, but that one might also be used!

Carlsen has had a couple on the shelf for a few weeks, they must be coming close to their sell by date. Not as hot as they expected!
