The Dubai Police have an impressive stable of law enforcement vehicles, which includes the number nine car on our list – the Nissan GT-R. Outrunning the Police in this Emirati state is no mean feat. This 2-door 2+2 sports car was unveiled by Nissan, in 2007. It is a four-wheel drive with a twin-turbo 6 cylinder engine and feature’s Nissan’s signature four round tail lights. The car looks great, painted in the colours of the United Arab Emirates’ flag and it is entirely standard apart from the addition of a siren system. This gives the Dubai Police an added edge in tackling crime, the fast way, with a 478bhp at 6400rpm, 434lb ft of torque at 3200 rpm and the ability to go from zero to 60mph, in just under 4 seconds – 3.8 seconds, if you’re counting!

Despite being kitted with red and blue LED roof lights and painted with Police signage, the sleek profile and structural curves of this unique car are unmistakable. The New South Wales Police has taken delivery of a brand-new Porsche 911 to assist them with their crime-fighting endeavours. While the legendary car goes from zero to 100 kmh in 4.8 seconds the main aim behind including this car in the NSW’s list of Police vehicles was not to chase after criminals along the highways down under. Rather, the Police thought that it would help build community relations with disadvantaged youths. In fact, the custom Police decals on the car were designed by students hailing from the area. The car is more of a publicity stunt and is expected to attend a large number of local events, where police officers will be able to interact with the public.
