Gone are the days when cops roll around town in beat up Crown Victorias. Today, you can find police officers patrolling the streets in everything from Lamborghinis to Aston Martins. Even the more run-of-the-mill Fords look impressive.

We’ver rounded up the craziest, most impressive police cars from around the world. Some of them are so awesome, we’d consider getting arrested just to take a ride in the back seat.

In 2008, the Italian automaker gave a Gallardo LP560-4 (pictured above) to the Italian State Police. It came with gun racks and a video recording system, according to Autoblog.

The Brits kept things domestic when they added seven specially-equipped Jaguar XF to their fleet. The 3.0-liter diesel engine that sends the vehicle from 0 to 60 mph in 5.9 seconds and gets an impressive 34.5 miles per gallon, according to Motor Authority.

Jaguar Land Rover

In 2012, Ford introduced the new Police Interceptor sedan and SUV. They’re certified for rear-end crashes at 75 mph, and the front doors come with ballistic panels to protect the occupants from gunfire.

Aston Martin made only 77 units of its One-77 supercar, so it’s an especially impressive addition to the fleet. That may make it the world’s most impressive police car.
