    Wow, nice one off, truly unique.
    Apart from the Dutch orange coloring combined with German text POLIZEI, this is a truly international car with the US spec lamps front and back that were not used in Europe where these cars operated. I guess done for the show at the time to allow the American public to recognize it as the latest 911?
    Why the red light though? The B/W picture does not help; was it fitted later or already mounted at the time of the show back then?

    The Swedish Police also had Coupe's. I think they came in black and white.

    Here a picture I got from Thomas Lundevall

    Are you really sure that we ever had red policecars in Germany? I never saw such a paint. Policecars have been white or white-green but I´ve never seen a white-red Policecar.

    Have a nice Weekend

    Hi Bernd,

    I think PSS (see top of page) was already on to that; no, German policecars had green/white and Dutch police cars had this orange/white colourcombo.
