German Police is used to getting a Porsche cruiser once in a while, but it is the first time, to our knowledge, a Mercedes-Benz is poised to get the job. And what a Benz it is, the extremely sporty Mercedes AMG GT two-seater super car.
Even if this Mercedes AMG GT police car is wearing the livery just for the sake of the show, it is still a lot cooler than that other Mercedes super police car, which is Dubai Police’s SLS AMG. Despite being smaller and a lot more efficient, the AMG GT matches the SLS’ performance and beats it even when it comes to handling. Granted, the SLS is scarier looking which is a good quality for a cop car. But if we were a deputy and could choose between the two, we’d definitely go for the GT.
