Well you have to keep a few things in mind here...

1. While the Crown Vic is no speed demon, it def isn't slow by a long shot too. Many cities have guidelines and rules concerning high speed pursuits and limit how fast cop cars are suppose to travel; especially in urban areas. Notice that when he hit the highway, he pretty much opened the car flat out and let it breath.

2. LS has top end for days, and (if maintained properly) WILL top out @ 149. Have yet to see a cop car do that, especially since most states will end a pursuit @ 100 mph. You might outrun the car, but you will NEVER outrun that radio.

Trying to make a run for it, even in the new Camry which I know for a fact is faster than the ones' it replaced, while making a good show of it,,still would not do it. You may get a bit of a lead on the Vic, since these cars are in 2 different categories, but you WON't be leaving it TOO FAR behind you.
