Furthermore, I looked up about the Chevy Caprice, it was so popular among police agencies and public in general that it was sold even overseas. Especially in the Persian Gulf countries like Saudi Arabia almost everyone had a Caprice. The people who lived the days of its sales, especially cops, said that the Caprice had an authoritarian look that prevented it to go around unseen. In particular, some people who are retired police officers, when they see a Caprice, they remember the days when they used them, and they would exclaim: "Back when cop cars were cop cars!". Despite they're at least 30 years old, I noticed they still are on the road up to this day. And even people from younger generations love them. In my case, as an European 23 year old guy, I have a 1990 Chevrolet Caprice 9C1, I love my beast! PS: I know it's a GTA V in-game picture, but it's just to show you how much I like these American box body cars.

I’ve recently seen some movies, more exactly chase scenes and footage in general in 1980s movies. Especially the ones set in California, I saw so many Caprices used by LAPD, CHP and many other agencies. Was that the period GM took over Ford and Chrysler? I remember there were LTD Crown Vics and Diplomats, but not so many like the Caprices. Why did they select Caprices over other cars? I found out that wasn’t like today, with Ford dominating the police fleets with the Crown Vics.
