Dubai officials continued their lavish spending on exotic vehicles for their police force by adding a Bugatti Veyron.
The Veyron would be the latest supercar acquisition that has also included a Lamborghini Aventador , Ferrari FF, and Aston-Martin One-77. Dubai Police also added a Chevrolet Camaro SS .
According to Yahoo's Motoramic blog, the supercar fleet will be stationed around Dubai's top tourist attractions, including the Burj Khalifa—the world's tallest building that was featured prominently in "Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol"—to highlight the city's urbanity.
The Bugatti Veyron, which carries a base price of approximately $1.4 million, is considered the fastest street-legal car in the world. It's powered by an 8.0-liter 16-cylinder quad-turbocharged engine mated to a seven-speed transmission. It's capabale of reaching a top speed of 267 mph, which may seriously limit the duration of any pursuits.
