Over the past few weeks, the greatest police force in the history of humanity has been assembled down in the deserts of Dubai. For a city that's streets are filled with millions of dollars of the highest luxury and performance cars in the world at all times, this might not seem like a huge deal, but to the rest of us, this is huge. The Dubai Police Force has assembled an Avengers car team that includes a Lamborghini Aventador and an Aston Martin One-77. Get to know these and the other cars of Dubai's $2.5 Million Supercar Police Fleet.

Lamborghini Aventador
Msrp: $397500
Engine: 6.5L V12
Transmission: 7-speed semi-automatic
Horsepower: 700
Torque: 507
0-62 Time: 2.9 seconds
Drive Configuration: All-wheel
Let's start off with the fastest of the bunch, the Aventador. It's a little sad that this car has become so associated with so many celebrities. It kind of takes away from some of the exclusivity of a vehicle with such incredible performance. These types of supercars are everywhere in Dubai, so it could actually be justified that they would need something like this to catch people like Justin Bieber over there.
Ferrari FF
Msrp: $295,000
Engine: 6.3L V12
Transmission: 7-speed semi-automatic
Horsepower: 651
Torque: 504
0-62 Time: 3.7 seconds
Drive Configuration: Four-wheel
You might actually be able to fit a criminal in the back of an FF, with its four-seat, four-wheel-drive set up. Yes, FF stands for Ferrari Four.
Chevrolet Camaro SS
Msrp: $34,220
Engine: 6.2L V8
Transmission: 6-speed manual
Horsepower: 426
Torque: 420
0-62 Time: 4.2 seconds
Drive Configuration: Rear-wheel
The Camaro is the only TRUE manual on this list, which we love. It's pretty sad that stick shifts are going by the wayside, but the paddles techincially are safer and more efficient. This is also the only American car on the fleet.
Bentley Continental GT
Msrp: $175,500
Engine: 6.0L W12
Transmission: 8-speed semi-automatic
Horsepower: 567
Torque: 516
0-62 Time: 4.4 seconds
Drive Configuration: All-wheel
The Bentley GT stands out because of its engine. Rather than rolling six deep, the Continental has two threes side by side.
Hyundai Genesis R-Spec
Msrp: $46,800
Engine: 5.0L V8
Transmission: 8-speed automatic
Horsepower: 429
Torque: 376
0-62 Time: 4.9 seconds
Drive Configuration: Rear-wheel
This is one that kind of slipped through the cracks among all these supercars, but it's still worth noting. It's got more horsepower than that Camaro SS, it's got an eight-speed trans, and it's a Hyundai. The fact that th Dubai Police want one of these is impressive.
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG
Msrp: $199,500
Engine: 6.3L V8
Transmission: 7-speed semi-automatic
Horsepower: 571
Torque: 487
0-62 Time: 3.8 seconds
Drive Configuration: Rear-wheel
You didn't think they'd go without a gullwing in the crew, did you? We'd probably say this is the most beautiful car of the bunch. Either this or ... (click to see the next one)
Aston Martin One-77
Msrp: $1,400,000
Engine: 7.3L V12
Transmission: 6-speed semi-automatic
Horsepower: 750
Torque: 553
0-62 Time: 3.7 seconds
Drive Configuration: Rear-wheel
This. How many celebrities have you seen driving an Aston Martin One-77? Huh? ... Right, none. This car is so rare that it's a shock when publications are even able to get access. Only 77 exist, and one of them is now in the possession of a police force. That just seems wrong.
