Singaporeans love Japanese-made saloon cars like Toyota, Honda and Nissan. And the Singapore Police Force (SPF) is not an exception too. The SPF land division’s deployment of so-called Fast Response Car patrols helps to “effectively response and manage security incidents in the public land transport system.” If you take a look at the SPF’s car garage, Subaru Impreza and Toyota Corolla Altis are the most powerful and the probably the “elite” ones among the entire fleet of rapid-deployment vehicles.

But frankly speaking, they are slow (top speed 195 km/h), ugly and cheap (SGD 50,000 excluding COE) as compared to those European police cars from Italy, Germany, Holland and Austria. The police officers at these European countries are so damn fortunate as they can roam around the streets of Rome, driving super cars from notable companies like Porsche, BMW and Lamborghini, and boasting their driving skills.

Let’s start off with cars specs and pricing of Singapore’s Police Force Fast Response Cars followed by the fast and sleek super cars depolyed by several rich European countries like Italy and Germany.

I’m still hesitating whether to accept the sponsorship request or not. Of course, everything in life comes with an advantage and downside. What I will benefit from this is that I get to make more money to pay for mine web hosting fees. But unfortunately, Starhub isn’t a worldwide recognized brand. It isn’t as influential or popular as Singapore Airlines or Temasek Holdings.

My tech blog (TechXav) garners thousands of tech-savvy readers all over the world, most of which are from The United States of America and Europe. As such, it puts Starhub is an disadvantage since their main objective is to target Asians, especially Singaporeans to purchase their products or subscribe to their services. If the marketing teams at AT&T, Verizon, Vodafone or Orange approach me to promote their services, then of course I definitely would be delighted to help in return of money.

Anyway here’s the screenshot of the email Laura (the person-in-charge) has sent to me yesterday. I’ve blurred some personal data such as full name, email address, and telephone number for privacy issues. The image has been squeezed to fit the size of the content wrapper. If you’ve myopia or some weird problems with your eyesight, then here’s the link of the original screenshot.
