This vehicle is the rare 2008 Chevrolet Impala 50th Anniversary Edition, which is based on the LT. This one in particular is painted in Black Granite Metallic color.

kind of odd for a Police vehicle isn't it?

Sure hope they didn't destroy it...and yes, very odd for a police car!

How did you know it’s a 50th Anniversary Edition? I’m certainly not doubting you, just want to know incase I see one, I’ll know what to look for.

I am curious too as I'd like to be able to spot one.

The vehicle was used quite extensively throughout the movie, including specific interior shots. The headrests had the special "50" stitching on them, which was pretty much the giveway. The 50th Anniversary edition is equipped with SS wheels and a spoiler, or something similar.

Ahh, okay, so no special exterior emblems ?

Not really. The Impala logo on the C-pillar was just modified a bit to include "50th Anniversary." Here's a good page on this special edition:

I like the subtlety of that Impala emblem.

The Motor Trend thumbnails show these Impalas had the same awesome "magic" folding rear seat as the Honda Fit.

The rear seat folds down in the EXACT same way as my 15 year old Isuzu.
