Seen this before on eBay. It's not a Canadian car. It's just an S4 with lights and stickers.

Don't know, but I saw this car on eBay last year as well. I'm guessing it was imported to Canada and now for sale again. Hard to tell withou engine or underbelly pics. Plus pics in the dark, I call bull shift all around. If it was for real there would be more detail. Plus when I saw it for sale last year it was with the same pics.

The rear cover dual exhaust is a customer modification no such Porsche option anywhere.

The Florida car was used for traffic enforcement on one of the toll interstates for a brief period of time. I suspect that the maintenance costs were a shock...

It was then used in the public relations end (DARE, etc.) for a while. No idea what happened to it.

The tail pipe is routed from the left muffler across between the tank and bumper cover and then out the custom cut out.

Pretty cool:

•Custom fabricated heat-wrapped headers
•Custom built stainless dual exhaust system with matching polished tips
•Fabricated rear bumper cover to house dual exhaust and tips
•Aluminum under-engine tray

"THIS IS NO TOY. IT'S THE REAL DEAL. THE ONLY STREET LEGAL 928 POLIZEI IN THE WORLD. CUSTOM EVERYTHING EVEN GOLD PLATED BEZELS. NOT FOR THE AVERAGE BUYER. IF YOU LIKE SUPER CLEAN. I MEAN CONCOURS CONDITION. MUSEUM PIECE. SHOW READY. THIS IS THE ONE.



NEVER OFFERED BEFORE IN A PUBLIC AUCTION. FOR 7 DAYS ONLY DURING THE BUSIEST SHOPPING WEEK OF THE YEAR. DO NOT ASK ABOUT THE RESERVE BID. PREFER TO SELL TO ANOTHER COLLECTOR OR AGENT ACTING ON BEHALF OF A WELL-HEELED INVESTOR.




SITE WITH DETAILED DESCRIPTION AND PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. PLEASE AVOID MAKING CONTACT IF YOU ARE A CURIOUS SEEKER. THIS IS A NICELY APPOINTED 928 WITH DUAL HEATED AND POWER SEATS AND DUAL POWER LUMBAR FEATURE WITH FACTORY ALARM. IT BOASTS THE ORIGINAL LEATHER INTERIOR AND ORIGINAL EXTERIOR PAINT. ULTRA CLEAN. SPECIALTY CUSTOM.




THE FREE-FLOW EXHAUST IS LOUD TO VERY LOUD WHEN ACCELERATING. THE WAY AN UNRESTRICTED V8 SHOULD SOUND. IF WORDS LIKE UNIQUE, EXCLUSIVE, MEMBERS ONLY, ONE-OF-A-KIND ARE IN YOUR VOCABULARY, THEN THIS RIDE MIGHT BE FOR YOU.




I'M NOT BIG ON EXTRAVAGANT SALES PITCHES AND FLAMBOYANT ADS. THIS PORSCHE REALLY SELLS ITSELF. LOOKING TO MOVE ONE CAR OUT OF THE COLLECTION AND THIS MIGHT BE THE ONE IF A TRULY INTERESTED BUYER COMES ALONG."

The whole thing including the sales pitch does not look legit to me. I doubt the car was really a cop car which usually has many special equipment for law enforcement. I see a lot of bling bling stuffs on it. $0.02

I second that, it's a show car, that's it. No cop car would have gold plated accents, white wheels, hood liner, sub woofer, etc, etc.

And what serious collector would not at least take new photos in daylight to sell a car. The photo's used in the auction are old.

I bet that interior has been seriously hacked.

What good is a 928 that you can't drive on the street, isn't good for racing, and isn't really show-car quality?

Boy would that ever torque-off the dudly-do-rites in my town!! It's a nice quite town where nothing ever happens, really a great place to live, BUT if you're a cop it's PURE HELL! Imagine working in a town where catching a kid with half a joint is a major drug bust and gets the sargent off your *** for a month. A POLIZIE 928 would drive them nuts!! The German Federal Polizie had to buy some 928s to use as chase cars on the autobahn because their BMWs and AUDIs were blowing up trying to catch SHARKS!!!

What fun! From the looks of it, must have been out to Sproat Lake for some Paul Jaeger attention ... and I guess you'd call that an (elongated) RMB ?
