The same guys who set the “legit” record before the shutdown in the E63 made another run in an S6 made to look like a Taurus police cruiser

Yup, that’s V inWiki. They’ve actually had some extremely interesting people on in the past. Randy Pobst has done a few.

I’m pretty “meh” on all the cannonball stuff though. (on this channel and in real life)

Rich guy went illegally fast across america in a car, other rich guys who’ve done the same will now question how valid this is since there was less traffic

How do you make an Audi look like a Ford? According to some videos of actual market research studies with real people that I've seen, it's only Chevys that can be easily mistaken for Audis.

Cannonball: for people who insist on buying military-approved camuflage clothing to wear in the local gun range.

Cannonball: for people that insist on golden chandeliers in their recently built macmansion in the exurbs

The Ford 500 that turned back into the Taurus totally stole the A6 roofline.

Does anyone even care about the Cannonball anymore? It hasn’t really been competitive or entertaining since Don Don Cann eloni and J.J. McClure retired and died.

That one, yeah, but Ford was still selling Crown Victoria Police Interceptors during that generation.

Go look up the Audi A6 and Ford Five Hundred. J Mays changed jobs and took the same design template with him, only way crappier :)

I guess from a distance most average people could be fooled.

Yeah, but they didn't really market those much as police cars, since the CVPI completely overlapped with that generation, and they also didn't sell many of them at all. And they disappeared from the roads pretty damn quick once production ended.

I don’t think I ever saw that generation of 500/Taurus as a cop car...just making the Audi/Ford connection.

I think most people just don’t pay that much attention, or they see someone driving like an ass and the car looks like a drug seizure or one-off fleet car for pursuits. I know I’d probably just let it slide, and I’ve actually called the cops on the cops for terrible driving before.
