Either Dodge Diplomats or Plymouth Gran Fury's. |

Lighting couldn't be more studio, could it? |

That building in the background doesn't exist in real life, (that is, if this supposed to be New York City, which I think it is) |

Could be Chicago... Still, it's only a set, so it doesn't have to be anything... |

Except that the Chicago PD didn't have those colors on their police cars when these cars were made, and NYPD did. |

Well, I don't think THIS scene was filmed in Bangkok, Thailand  |

Most of it was filmed here where I live ... |

I know, I just wanted to make it clear that since this is SUPPOSED to be New York, then it must have been filmed either in New York or in the Screem Gems Studios in Wilmingtion, NC. |

Only scenes I recognized were the Port. Everything else I think was NY and probably done on a set. |
|

Yes indeed, the Port sticks out like a sore thumb ... |

I believe that the inner grill panels on the police package Diplomat were black while they were grey on the police package Gran Fury. So, I say these are Dodge Diplomats. |

The grille on the first one looks like it reads Dodge |
