The City of Bloomfield Hills is auctioning off an out of service/decommissioned patrol vehicle for sale to the public. This was a police service unit that was fully marked for police service since new. It was removed from service in late 2013 and used as a code enforcement car for until recently. This car shows signs of wear consistent with a life as a police car, scratches, emergency equipment mounting holes and areas of duty use. It is equipped with vinyl flooring, vinyl rear seating, spot lamps, full size spare tire and all components now function as a retail vehicle. This car is sold as is and can been seen during business hours at the City of Bloomfield Hills by appointment only (email Lt Clason for appointment nclason@bloomfieldhillspolice.com). The City of Bloomfield Hills as well as the Public Safety Department are released from all liability once sold as this car comes as is. All maintenance records have been accurately held and the car sustained no major damage or repairs during service use. This car runs fine and has a solid engine with no leaks or mechanical problems. The transmission, brakes, exhaust and all mechanical areas of the vehicle are operational and fully functional. It is safe, drivable and safe for use. http://gmauthority.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/2010_Impala_Police.pdf The 9C1 and 9C3 models were based on the LS model, yet offered steel wheels or steel wheels with wheel covers, optional rubber flooring, preparation for police equipment such as sirens, radios, and lighting, special badging, and inoperable rear door handles, windows, and door locks. It also came with the option for a rear vinyl bench seat and front cloth bucket or bench seats, both cloth front and rear seats, or vinyl front and rear seats. It also offered preparation for a criminal cage to be installed between the front and rear seats. The foglamps seen on the LT, LTZ, & SS were optional in 2008 & stayed as an option until 2012 which did away with that option. The 9C1 & 9C3 also had the option of having the spoiler seen on the LT, & LTZ until being replaced by the spoiler that is on the SS & other models in 2009. The police sedans received the FlexFuel in 2008 feature to compete against the Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, which also received a similar feature allowing it to utilize E85. Also updated were the 9C1 and 9C3 trim levels for the Police Package models, which did not have the civilian SS's 303 horsepower (226 kW) V8 engine, but used the 3.9 liter (237 cu in) V6.[34] Police Sedans utilized the SS radiator and cooling system as an upgrade from the standard 3.9 liter engine (used in the Impala LTZ). GM did not wish to design a specific radiator and cooling system to equip a low-production V8 police vehicle. Also, the heavy-duty steel wheels were not redesigned, and as such, the Police Sedan used the original center caps or the older style wheel covers from the 8th generation model. The 9C1 and 9C3 were equipped with an external trunk lock tumbler starting in 2008. Neither feature was available for the civilian version of the car. The 9C1 and 9C3 police models had the standard wood grain for the 2006 model year until 2007 which was replaced by an aluminized interior trim. For the 2012 model year both the 9C1 & 9C3 have different end caps where the fog lamps are on the LT & LTZ trims on the front end bumper, received 17-inch wheels with new wheel covers, and the same LFX V6 that powers the civilian Impala. The Caprice PPV will succeed the Impala 9C1 when it concludes production in 2016. Until then, the Caprice and 9C1 will be offered simultaneously.
