Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. |

That is to say they're painted in what might or might not be the authentic Saudi police colour scheme. |

Yeah, that would be a better way of putting it. The movie wasn't filmed in Saudi Arabia, so they're definitely fake. However, they do look pretty darn close to their actual cars: http://peacecorpsonline.org/messages/imagefolder/jeddahconsulate.jpg |

Yeah, CVPIs are/were often used as cop cars in the Middle East. Example of a Bahrani one: https://www.reddit.com/r/PoliceVehicles/comments/164cuo4/bahraini_cvpi/ -- Last edit: 2023-10-23 16:41:53 |

Didn't expect to see my photo here but you're correct. Surprisingly, Saudi Arabia still operates few Crown Vics based on my recent trip to Riyadh. Usually in more passive roles and/or away from larger cities but they haven't fully retired them yet. -- Last edit: 2023-11-07 21:56:14 |
