When you thought Gallardo cop car was not enough

[EJK]

The Italian police has got two Gallardo cop cars (one is off the road now). They are very fast but there's a little problem... No back seat when they capture the bad boys. So the British went ahead and got themselves the latest, fastest (almost), sports car (almost) they can buy...... with two bad boys' seats.

The Porsche Panamera Turbo.

On a freezing December day, a camera team from Performance Direct went to experience what could be the British Polices latest, and most potent, weapon in the fight against speeding: an Oakley designed Porsche Panamera.

Lowered, lightened and modified with carbon fibre, the Porsche Panamera is capable of over 200mph and is rumoured to move from 0-60 in less than 4 seconds!

The super fast Porsche Police Car is the subject of the first Performance Direct Motoring News report, our regular video blog which takes a sidelong look at all thats interesting in motoring. As a modified car insurance specialist, Performance Direct often hears of interesting super cars, high performance bikes and other amazing vehicles. So check back for more amazing motoring news.

Depending upon the relative skills of the operators and the traffic density... yes.

Lol, well as it stands stock, depending on traffic, woudln't they both max out about the same, anyway?

[nodrog:Me]

the fastest i have seen a bus go was 317kph, but that was on nitrous, and 200mph (which it states that car can go over) = 321kph, but those euro cars go around corners.

Where would you take a bike to 400km/h, even if it could. And who would have the ability to do so? The car would be beaten to say 150mp/h (maye a pinch more) then the superior aerodynamics and higher power output would push the car past the bike. And then when it comes to braking and cornering, I'm sorry but you can't beat 4 large contact patches and a highly engineered chassis and suspension/tyres/brakes to match.
