2014 Caprice SS
Definitely a cool car either way. Ive always liked those. -Unless its behind me...
Unfortunately this isn't really the right forum to get answers to that kind of question. These aren't US / Chevy made vehicles- they're from Holden Australia. They dont have any relation at all to any generation Monte Carlo. You'd have a lot better luck on a forum for Holden sourced vehicles- G8 / SS / Caprice / GTO.
I wouldn't go so far as to call it a unicorn though. As we've seen with Monte Carlos through the years, people love to slap SS badges on all kinds of cars that didn't come with them stock. The badges you're showing here would be very quick and easy for anyone to add.
I will say, there is such thing as a Caprice SS - they did sell that as a trim level on the cars sold in the Middle East (although it wasn't particularly special, nor was it the highest trim). But you say its an ex police car, so it can't be one of those. As far as I know all US cars were PPV - either 9C1 or 9C3 trim code. The cars were pretty stripped down for police duty, so it wouldn't have made sense to build a real SS version. I think the chances its a real SS are very low.
