LAST DAY FOR SUBMISSIONS
ARLINGTON ASCENDANT HSPV 303
In 2009, Arlington stopped including its legendary 303-cubic-inch engine in passenger offerings. The advent of direct injection on the fourth-generation CamTech V8 architecture and a horsepower war on the horizon forced the company to rethink its mid-level V8 offering, punching out the bore an extra .12in due to siamesing.
This did not, however, work for fleet applications, which needed a mid-level V8 without the complexities of the new architecture; as a result, the company ended up keeping the 303 for police use. This new “Use until obsolete” 303 combined the linerless block of the newer engines with the old bore and port injection for bulletproof reliability, and generated an adequate 380 hp.
Arlington’s Ascendant HSPV cruiser - the first unibody pursuit vehicle produced by Arlington - proudly continues the 303 legacy. Easy to use and abuse, this bear of a pursuit sedan makes up its lack of bang for buck (the package comes in at a costly $34,000) by being very intuitive to drive, very grippy on the road, and utterly, utterly unkillable. It’s also decently light for a cruiser at under 3900 lbs, meaning that even its somewhat compromised power output is still enough for a 5-second dash to 60 and a limited 168 mph top speed - which exceeds over 90% of recorded instances of sustained speeding by reckless drivers.
The HSPV comes ready for duty, with a pre-installed interior shield and a flat center console ready for all manners of mounted equipment. The base civilian center stack is retained but the screen will work with any plug-in police computer. The 7-speed automatic transmission can be controlled manually via the standard paddle shifters, though it’s already well-calibrated to deliver sharp and timely shifts, prioritizing them massively over economy.
And, of course, the back seats get nothing. Because that’s where the perps go.

Can you try to finish this one? It’s been closed for a while. At least a short writeup determining the winner

I mean, since this isn’t a continuous challenge, can’t you just take it up when you have time? Better than dropping it altogether when people have actually put time and work into entries.
