The few Porsche, the German police has today- mainly in the area of Stuttgart- are given by the Porsche-company.
Decades ago, there were indeed some Porsche officially in use. So 356 -even a few convertibles- had been in the German police-fleet, also several early 911 (for the Autobahn-police, too).
Once I've seen a big photo, hanging in the police-headquarter of Dortmund. It was a 924 in full police-trim (and with an MES-plate, so an early one from the mid-70ies). On my question "Wow, you are driving Porsche!" I got the -pinched- answer: "This was a long time ago. Porsche was getting too expensive. Now we are proud Opel-users."
