How can I become a cop in Dubai?
Probably one of the most entertaining jobs in the world.

It's stupid. A police car is supposed to be roomy and such, not a sports coupe or sports car.

This is an interceptor, not a cruiser or paddy wagon - different cars for different purposes.

Perhaps you would elaborate on that? I don't know much about the police stuff, but how would they intercept in a high-speed chase (which in itself is very dangerous)? When they've caught up, would they just ram into the other car?

Makes sense. I have a friend that just deployed to Abu Dhabi (supposidly the richest city in the world) - and on his second day took an outing. He said he saw a Veyron, a couple Maybachs, Carrera GT, a couple Ferraris, etc. - all in the course of a couple hours. Can't really expect them to play catch up in a generic sedan - although I think something like an M5/AMG/whatever would be more suitable.
