Awesome Corvette Police Cruiser Seized In 2013 METH BUST To Be Auctioned

A Chevrolet Corvette that came into the possession of the New Braunfels Police Department as a seizure in a massive meth bust in 2013, will now most likely be sold at auction.

Sadly, the black and white police-skinned 2007 Corvette Z06 — with aftermarket modifications for racing — never got a chance to race down criminals as it was mostly used in local parades, school events and other community events. Cops deemed the flashy supercar too “high profile” for use as a regular patrol or for undercover work.

The money from the sale is destine to be returned to the department’s seizure fund, which will then be used to continue their community outreach programs, professional training and equipment purchases.

The car was seized during a large meth raid in June 2011 conducted by the DEA and Comal County Narcotics Task Force. The department says the raid broke up a large meth trafficking cell linked to La Familia Michoacana, which NBPD describes as a Christian-fundamentalist narco gang infamous for meth smuggling, beheading and dismembering their enemies, including police and soldiers. h/t

The department announced the plans on its Facebook page Wednesday. They say all the funds used to wrap the vehicle, add police lights and engine maintenance came from the seizure fund.
