Ford_Guy ◊ 2012-10-29 03:45	What do you mean?
jettalover ◊ 2012-10-29 04:13	9C1s have a keyhole on the trunklid to manually unlock the trunk. Civilans Impalas don't have them. It's placed near where the blue numbers/letters are. Maybe non 9C1s are used by police.
carcrasher88 ◊ 2012-10-29 04:23	^Exactly. One of the best ways to tell a 9C1 apart from a civilian/fleet/rental Impala, and probably the best way to tell from behind. All 2006+ non-9C1 Impalas come standard with remote trunk release, a feature that would actually be a hindrance for police/emergency personnel for a couple reasons, like losing the remote, or having the battery run out of power when it's needed most.
Ford_Guy ◊ 2012-10-29 05:33	I see what you mean. Well, by the looks of it, it doesn't appear that the CPD ordered their vehicles with the keyhole. This is a real 9C1 and a real Chicago Police Department car by what I can tell, including the wheels and the spotlight. Here's a picture of a CPD Impala, without the keyhole: http://policecarwebsite.net/fc/pcarsite/chic249.jpg
