I have always been a big fan of police and fire vehicles of all scales, and lately I have been adding quite a few in 1:64 scale. One of the features that really make these pop is that they typically use translucent plastic parts for the headlights and taillights (rather than just dabs of paint as you find on most vehicles in this scale).
I included a taxi to call attention to the blog that is advertised on the roof signage. That is a legitimate database for 1:64 police vehicles. It is a Chinese site, and appears to be safe; I did not get any security warnings when I went there. It can also be translated to English. sgat.home.blog
These are all made by either MK Miniatures, Rollin, or 596. Enjoy!

Thanks for photos. To see these and many more 1/64 scale cars the toycargeek site is an excellent place to check. There is a wide range of models and price points. The only problem is controling your purchases.

596 is especially good at capturing the proper look of service vehicles. 😎 😎 😎

My LA County Coroner van just arrived last night! One of my favorite things about 596 Models is the box they come in. Reminds me of getting a new Matchbox car!

LoL - right, however, imagine telling Mom, "I want that LA County coroner's van, can I have it, please, can I have it, please... can I have it..." 😆 😆 😆

@chris Your mom might be a bit concerned about your mental state.

HOLY CRAP! That Coroner van is huge! Do they only go out and collect the bodies once a month??? 🤣 🤣 🤣
(Yes, I am aware that it is a Special Ops Unit, but I couldn't resist...)
