What is amazing is that these Ithaca police department cars are obviously copies of the idea of the car used by Ithaca's favorite local ice cream parlor (Purity Ice Cream).
However, Purity's advertiseing car which can been seen on th streets of ithaca and at the parlor itself is a bright red bug. Purity's car engenders attention, awe and solumn respectwhen seen. This police car is well---yellow.
Really, a bug does not inspire fear, unless you're a racer and its got a big "53" on every corner... Now a Crown Victoria, that will give any would be ne'er do well the heebie jeebies.
Song appropraite fot the Ithaca cops driving this bug:
"I've got those yellowstain blues, from my head to my shoes...."
