Brabus builds Mercedes-Benz B63S - 700 Widestar for Dubai Police

It's not about catching the bad guy, it's about driving something so cool that the bad guy pulls over just to stare in awe at your police cruiser.

Well, we suspect that the bar for most spectacular police vehicle has been raised once again with the delivery of the 700-hp Brabus B63S - 700 Widestar G-class to the Dubai police and its appearance at the Dubai Motor Show.
