2011 CHEVY CAPRICE PPV-6.0L V8-8600 MILES

Priced to Sell FAST!!!

$31,995.00

Decent rims is all this thing needs to be totally gangsta.

Design is dated. Interior is parts bin and old. Wtf pushrods engine!?

Someone remind me why these aren't more readily available again?

If I wound up with one I would have to swap those seats out for a set from a G8. That's my only beef with it.

It's nice to see the Caprice finally back, but this car is very dated looking and the interior is not up to current GM design and material standards. I would like to see this converted into an Impala SS, though at the end of the day, these can't hold a candle to the old B-bodies IMO.

How are these selling? I was told by a PA State police officer that PA will not be buying any for patrol car use because of their foreign-made status. I can understand that and I'm wondering, if GM did their market research, why GM didn't foresee that fact being an issue.

I would expect the driving dynamics to be much better than the B-bodies, though...this is a much newer platform... and the interior is a lot nicer...the last B-bodies were awfully cheap and plasticky inside, IMO...

This will be a problem for NJ State Police, as well.

If not for the entire NJ Police association. If I recall correctly, all police vehicles are approved by the state's police association. Chargers seem to be the hot ticket for local towns right now.

I was going to say that, because deep in the back of my memories, it was my understanding ALL police cars in NJ must be of either US or NA build... but I couldn't remember the details. And I remember the Crown Vic and Charger being built in Canada was a possible hitch in that concept.

But then again, times change. NJ used to be against photo enforcement, but the traffic light cameras are still moving in.

well about the interior, this isn't a regular production car, otherwise i'm sure it would be done up a bit nicer

Entirely true.

While I'm sure it's a fine car, I'm not sure it's a fine enough car for the price. That is very very gently used CPO CTS money.

I love the idea of a large V8 powered sedan like this. But I'd try to find a nice oldie in good shape for 1/4 the price.

True enough..this the super cheap basic police interior...needs Commodore Statesman leather trim, etc to dress it up..

No thanks....
