There are at least two things wrong with this alleged cruiser - actually just a prop for a movie being filmed in Southie. See if you can spot them. If not, Greg MacKay, who took the photo, provides the answers. Actually, one of the errors might be a bit hard to see; MacKay provides a larger version for you to examine.
Meanwhile, M@tty1378 spies a New Jersey cruiser in front of the Legal Seafood at the Burlington Mall.

It's a frickin' Chevy. What, did they paint a rental car?
I could spot that dud in my rear-view mirror at 100 yards. It doesn't even look like a police car. At least they could have used a Charger if not a proper Crown Vic.
It's parked in a marked space?

I also wonder if the extras who get to sit in the idling cars get paid double overtime.

G-8? I don't think so.
Also, the cruiser spotted at the Burlington Mall is not from New York. West Orange is a town in northern NJ. And yes, their cruisers do look like that.

It's not idling next to a hole in the street?
No license plate on the front?

Sitting at my desk right now I'm trying to recall whether Boston cop cars have plates on the front...
