Weiman the reason for those roof rails is bc that gives the Police cars a higher top speed than with the lightbar bonded/glued to the roof. Those roof lights really cut down on the car's top speed & acceleration. I don't know what the v-max is with the roof rails... but I am sure its better bc the air car move under the light bar.



Btw... a German Polizei car model costs about 35% more than a standard car. It's also normal to see these police cars still in service. That always blows me away when I see an e39 or e46 police car live on the streets today.



Dackel Yep, those red and yellow buttons are placed in the i-Drive controller for easy & quick access of the lights and siren modes.the reason for those roof rails is bc that gives the Police cars a higher top speed than with the lightbar bonded/glued to the roof.
