Carbon E7 Purpose Built Police Car

Carbon Motors is a car manufacturing company that seems to have taken the job of making the perfect police car into their own hands. After they made extensive research including talking with all kinds of law enforcement people they started building the first purpose built police car: the Carbon E7.

The car can sprint up to 65 mph in under 7 seconds via a 300 HP diesel engine and brush-off small arms fire thanks to bullet proof panels. The cars price range will be $20k-$70k depending on options, but with a 250,000 durability spec, suicide rear doors, and more LED lights than a Caddy, it seems worth it.
