I am sure Lambo does it on the house for name recognition.

The supercar, in State Police colours, with a siren and flashing lights on the roof, has been donated by the House of Sant’Agata Bolognese to the State Police on the occasion of its 152nd anniversary, held in the customary setting of the Piazza del Popolo in Rome on the 14th, 15th and 16th May 2004.

Well, when it comes to exotic Italians, someone sure knows his ****

Being Italian you do a large amount of of your communications by hand gestures, therefore making the police radio useless during a pursuit. If the radio becomes useless then you must have a fast car to catch the bad guys

Italian police to have supercar

Traffic police patrolling a motorway in southern Italy have a tough decision to take: who will get to drive the force's first Lamborghini Gallardo?

The gift from Lamborghini has been unveiled in all its blue and white glory, marked with the word "Polizia".

With a top speed of 309 kph (192 mph), it should have the edge in any chase on the Salerno-Reggio Calabria motorway.

However, the car is just as likely to be used for emergency deliveries such as human organs for transplant.

The sleek two-seater, topped with a flashing blue light, was put on display in Rome at a police event before entering service on the notorious motorway in the south.

It is a six-speed luxury vehicle with a 500-horsepower engine designed to go from zero to 100 kph (60 mph) in four seconds.

Donated by the Lamborghini factory in Bologna, its list price is US $165,000, probably making it unlikely that the Italian police force will actually buy any for its fleet.

Other traffic police forces which cannot boast a Lamborghini resort to devices of their own against speeders: in Russia, for example, officers have been known to shoot out the tyres of offenders with machine-guns.

I'd be a cop just to be able to wear that outfit... NOT!

Can you say Village People?

The Autobahn police in Germany have had Porsche Turbo 911's for years.
I was stopped by a 911 back in 1970 running no rear trailer lights going to Dusseldorf.....They helped by holding the flashlight while I fixed the umbilical.

Yeah...if the driver wrecks the car at high speed!

I agree it's a perfect piece of advertising although I doubt they're going to ticket other Lamborghini or Ferrari drivers.

For the factory it's an excellent testbed for endurance and continuous duty. Put in an extra capacity telemmetry logger and download it regularly.

Didn't the Spartanburn BMW plant give the police an E34 M5 awhile back?

A lot of our cops here wouldn't even be able to get in and out of that thing.
