Dubai imagines a Bugatti Veyron as its latest useless cop car

After acquiring a Lamborghini Aventador, Ferrari FF and an Aston-Martin One-77 for its overexposed police force, Dubai public safety officials revealed last week that they'd soon snap up the only supercar left out of their set: a Bugatti Veryon, which starts at $1.4 million and goes from there. If only they could find some spare change to hire competent Photoshop artists.

The composite picture above had been circulating a few days before it was shared on Twitter today by the lieutenant general of the Dubai police force. Last week, another official said the fleet would be stationed around Dubai's top tourist attractions — such as the Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building scaled by Tom Cruise in "Mission: Impossible 4" — with both men and women patrol officers, mainly as an advertisement for the city's urbanity: "One of our top priorities is to introduce things that are in line with the UAE (United Arab Emirates) and Dubai’s reputation."
