These folks just don't know what to do with their money, eh?
I'm surprised that they're not using M5's. :P

I kinda wanna go there, check out the city.

Well 1st of all those are old now (1st link) .. u can see them everywhere in dubai ... I think they will be driving the newer ones very soon still not in the roads yet .. but ... if ur not a UAE local ... u cannot join the police dep. also cameras are every where ... max speed limit is 130Km/h thats approx 80m/h I can only speed outside dubai on other areas highways ... also dubai is a very very busy place ... u cannot drive ur car in peak hours ... its better u don't ... last thing to say that cars here are hell cheeper than anywhere else ... I got my E34 535i with all the AC-Schnitzer kit for 4500 USD. but its nice to see a police department appricating BMWs :)

Here in Bahrain they have rebadged Holden Commodores. Those are some great looking cars.

That bumper package would be ideal for Connecticut traffic. I bet that's the last time the new ones see snow too....

well the answer is simple ... u know that Dubai police makes an auction every year for unique plate numbers ... example ... 1111 or 123 ... one indian ediot bought a number for 500,000 $ ... imagine how much they get. also they got M5s beofre ... but 530 now is powerfull enough. the ones you saw in the 1st link were 540's.
