Theres a Dark Green Ford Excursion in Barrie that pulls people over Ive seene it for the past couple years. Its big but it blends right in, no one slows down around it, never think it would be cops.

I thought it looked like rent-a-cop. New design looks stupid, the stealh cruisers are cool though.
There is zero advantage to this new design, other than feeding lucrative paint and body and vinyl contracts to people they probably know.
Just like OPP, with their black and whites...umm why? "Cause its more visible" to whom the color blind. And then they had all the OPP brass posing in front of the Ford Plant smilling and shaking hands...hmm ya think it was all smoke and mirrors to get some business for floundering Ford and the people in Ontario that work there?

The St Thomas plant is the source for Crown Vics, and the Crown Vic is still the most popular and proven general scout car platform there is.
Chevy's new Impala doesn't meet police flett requirements, and the Dodge Charger and Magnums haven't proven very popular because of limited interior space, poor visbility as a result of the high-beltline and "chopped" look greenhouse styling, and questionable durability under police fleet use conditions.
That dealt with - what's your next whine going to be?

^^^ Next whine is know-it-alls armed with only opinions on the internet.
Seriously though you didn't address, nor disprove that all that jazz about restyling the cop cars is a waste of tax payers money. And props up BS companies with sub-standard product...there was a big cover up about the stability of the Clown Vics at high speed, proven indeed.
So why aren't all cop cars black and white? If they are so uber visible. I'll say it again, just using up the budget and padding friends nests :-)
We all know studies proven over and over the scheme for UK cop cars is most visible from a distance and in all conditions.
EDIT: I actually had this debate with an OPP officer when they were flashing it around the auto show.
