and of course, you can't talk about police cars on tv or in the movies 
without mentioning the fabulous Dodge Monaco 440 ...

Elwood: "It's got a cop motor, a 440 cubic inch plant, it's got cop
          tires, cop suspension, cop shocks, it's a model made before
          catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas.  What
          do you say, is it the new Bluesmobile or what?"
   Jake: "Fix the cigarette lighter."
