I'm not pulling over if it's an unmarked cop car. What if it's some douchebag trying to impersonate a cop?

lol from the link above,

The California Highway Patrol is weaning itself off its fleet of now-discontinued Chevrolet Camaro pursuit cars, switching to new Porsche 987 Boxsters. As a spokesman for the CHP bizarrely put it, "The Camaros were at the end of their useful life, and were never able to be used fully given that CHP officers are prohibited from wearing mullets while on duty."

it was a hoax.....it's a SHOW ONLY CAR


it says right at the bottom of the article

[Update: Man, we're dumb. We so wanted to believe that this was true, that we got burned. Apparently Mr. Nowwegotcha has a better sense of humor than we thought. The mullet joke was too good to be true. Yeesch. The photo is of the CHP's show car, likely taken at the 2005 Palo Alto Concours d'Elegance.]
