Official: Stock looking C55

hi all.

As some of you have know, Crown Vic owners and impala owners usually tint their windows 5% black to give off that "cop car" kinda look right!?

have you guys seen a COP pose?

I spotted this dude in chinatown today, looked at me, and I laughed, and nodded.

Yes. This guy parked in a "no parking" zone, why? because hes a cop, and has that thing displayed on his dash.

The official, most stock looking. C55 AMG. Yes. I'm busting his chops. atleast pose as a C32. lol

Parking in the red zone = infraction; Conning the public = misdemeanor

After I parked, which was a block down. If I wasn't in a rush, I'd so whip out the nikon and do a photoshoot for that car. lol
