A friend of mine back in '96 or so was a police officer. He said he loved that Caprice and really disliked the Crown Vic they replaced it with.

The LT1 was a great engine for it's time and had boat-loads of torque compared to Ford's SOHC 4.6L, further, the 9C1 had a much more capable suspension than the Crown Vic, IMO. The transmission in the Caprice was also much better. All-in-all, much better car.
