Don't know how long this poor guy has left on the force. Its now sitting waiting for some action at the community police department located at a dying mall. (Coliseum Mall, Hampton, VA)
Probably doesn't have long because 1) they didn't re do the exterior with the new Hampton Police cop car design. and 2.) Caprices were out of production after 1996, this car has to be almost 10 years old, if it isn't already.
The color of the Hampton cop cars are "Minetti Blue" named after the police chief that retired a few years back.
I was doing an exterior photo shoot of the mall when I turned the corner and saw this and yelled outaloud "A Caprice pic for Brian!!!" (my online friend; Brian is a Caprice nut, he owns two of them)

My grandparents had a 1974 Impala (not the Caprice), but it was the same basic car as this one. Theirs was a green four-door sedan - a hardtop, if I remember correctly.
This convertible (spotted en route to my friend Mike's party last night) appeared to be in restorable condition.
