the police have a wide array of under cover cars nowadays....I always look for dark tinted windows adn usually a couple of small antennas on the back....if you're gonna get stopped more than likely it will be a trap so you won't see the car....if you're gonna drive 10-15 over the speed limit I would definately have a radar detector...

I used to live in AZ and I've seen pickups, the regular Crown Vics, a Camero, etc... here in Austin they have super-sneaky cars and I'd imagine that other states have similar setups. They are dark gray Chargers that have no lights readily visible, dark tinted windows and the lettering on the doors is almost a ghost type of lettering, you can only see it clearly at certain angles.
