Seeing an unmarked bluegray Dodge Intrepid pull someone over right in front of me was one of the scariest moments I've had, short of actually getting a ticket. I had no idea they were running Intrepids up until that day.

It was witnessing that incident which made me start checking license plate tags. Because with that car, the license plate tags are the only way I would have been able to detect it until he hit the light switch.

I've seen several stealth CSPD vehicles here lately, all with normal Colorado license plates, complete with the tags. All the old stealth vehicles still had the external spotlight, but all of the ones I have seen recently have no distinct difference, until the lights are on.

Of course there is also the possibility that any of these stealth cars could be fake. Most of the news agencies ran stories about this after the Lacy Miller killing last month.
