Dubai Police Department gets a new Lexus RC F

It seems the Dubai Police Department has added yet another unconventional cop car to its ranks. But rather than an exotic, mid-engined supercar, it's the V8-powered Lexus RC F.

Finished in a white and green color scheme typical of Dubai's police force, the RC F was purchased alongside another Toyota product, a utilitarian Toyota Land Cruiser. While the off-road ready SUV's purpose seems clear, enforcing the emirate's laws in the areas outside the city, the 467bhp Lexus will likely follow in the lead of Dubai's other high-performance offerings, appearing more for publicity and public relations than actual law enforcement.
