2008 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor Sedan 4-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
Manlius, New York, United States
Up for you’re consideration is a dark gray 2008 Ford Police Interceptor. This is not your typical high mileage / high idle hour beat up ex-police cruiser so please read the description in its entirety. This vehicle was purchased NEW by me in early 2008 from a Sheriff’s Deputy in MA and is highly optioned. He had ordered the vehicle along with several others for a private security firm that he runs on the side. After purchasing the vehicle, his firm decided to go with SUV’s. Subsequently, this Crown Vic and several others like it were released for sale to the public. That is how I came about purchasing this vehicle which at the time only had 1,100 miles and fewer than 5 idle hours (ONLY HAS 300 idle hours NOW - THREE HUNDRED). I still have the original eBay listing for this vehicle, bill of sale, copy of the MA title, and original window sticker with a breakdown of all the extra options (cruise, carpet, CD player, etc). I also have a list of service records dating back to when the car had its first transmission service done at 20K miles. This vehicle is ALL ORIGINAL. I stacked the mileage on pretty quickly because I commute a long distance to three different jobs utilizing the NYS thruway (40+ miles one way to each job). Most all of the mileage on this car was done on the highway; very little stop and go driving and very little idle time. I have maintained a very strict service schedule with this vehicle since I have owned it using only AMSOIL full synthetic fluids in the engine, transmission, power steering, and rear differential. The engine oil is changed every 5K-10K and the transmission receives a full service every 20K (flush w/ AMSOIL ATF and WIX filter).
Now for the good stuff - Not only is this car in mint condition for a 6 year old vehicle, but it is also moded with the following: Stainless Works long tube headers w/ catted lead pipes hooked up to the factory exhaust system, new OEM ported upper intake plenum, MSD ignition coils, new NKG iridium spark plugs, steeda under drive pulleys, EMP performance water pump, Ford 180* thermostat, B&M deep ATF pan with drain plug (holds 3 extra quarts of ATF) new Goodyear gatorback serpentine belt, and DiabloSport tuner ($2,700 in mods). The tuner is included with the sale along with all of the factory items that were replaced with the above performance items (factory catalytic converters not included, only the factory headers). This car has NEVER been abused or beaten on. I was not planning on selling this car which is why I sank so much money into it. My end goal was to make it similar in performance to a Mercury Marauder. The mods have only been in the car for about a thousand miles and let me tell yah, she hauls arse and gets 20+ MPG doing it! Also included in this sale are 3 additional sets of rims, 1 set are re-conditioned factory LX sport rims with Goodyear Assurance touring tires (60% tread), the other set are the original steel police rims that came with the car (I also have the OEM wheel covers). I replaced the original steel rims with after market steel rims because they got rusty from having the wheel covers on them. I now have the new rims on the car with General Arctic winter tires (60-70% tread). The wheel sensors are attached to the LX sport rims so the tire pressure light is currently on. The brake pads and rotors are NEW. The rotors are from Brake Performance and are slotted (lifetime warranty against warping & defects). The fuel filter is new. I just performed the following maintenance: Fresh Amsoil synthetic fluid in the engine with Amsoil filter, fresh Amsoil ATF fluid, coolant system flush at the Ford dealer, new Odyssey Extreme battery ($300.00 battery). THIS CAR NEEDS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. The interior is absolutely mint with no stains, odors, tears / rips, or holes from removal of police equipment. The back seats were sat in less than a dozen times. The carpet is like new as are the factory floor mats. The exterior is in immaculate condition and was just recently “touched up” by a professional (Brush guard along bottom of doors and around wheel wells, new front and rear bumper, new front windshield). The undercarriage is very clean with minimal surface rust and no damage of any kind. I always make a point in the winter to have the undercarriage washed at least once a week.
NADA private party retail price for a base model Police Interceptor of exact mileage and model year is $7,100. Being as this is NOT a base model interceptor and comes with 2 sets of tires, 3 sets of rims, and more, I have set the opening bid at 7K. The price is not negotiable! I am selling this vehicle because I have just purchased a 2013 Ford Police Interceptor Utility as it better suites my needs. If you want a like new police package Crown Vic that is in mint condition, highly optioned, and never in police service, this may be one of you’re last opportunities as Ford is no longer producing these vehicles. Don’t let the mileage scare you, this vehicle is not even half way through its life span yet. I have seen and driven abused patrol cars and former taxis with over 200K miles on them; original engines and transmissions, with thousands of idle hours that are still going strong. This car is LIKE NEW. Fly in and drive across country.
If you have a question regarding something that has NOT been mentioned above, please don’t hesitate to ask. Buyer is responsible for shipping of vehicle if unable to drive home. A $500 deposit is due within 48 hours of auction close. Full payment is due within 7 days of auction close. If you are fairly close and would like to set up a time to inspect the vehicle or take it for a test drive, let me know and arrangements will be made. Mileage will be slightly higher at time of sale as I drive this car from time to time so it’s not sitting. Vehicle is also for sale locally. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. If you have negative feedback or no feedback you must contact me before placing a bid. Remember, you’re bid is a contract and this is a bid-to-own auction. Non-paying bidders will be dealt with accordingly. I have 100% feedback for a reason. This car was described accurately! Bid with confidence! |

Expert: 54.5 mpg CAFE standard can be reached without many plug-ins
Sat, Jan 18 2014Johnson Controls executive Brian Kesseler isn't likely to get any holiday presents this year from Nissan chief Carlos Ghosn or Tesla Motors head Elon Musk, but lots of other folks might be happy with what he has to say about automakers' efforts to reach stricter fleetwide fuel-economy standards. Speaking at the Automotive News World Congress, Kesseler said automakers wouldn't need to sell an extensive number of plug-in vehicles in order to meet the 54.5 mile per gallon Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard the US government set in 2012 for 2025 model-year vehicles. In fact, he said, components such as stop-start engine technology, turbochargers and direct injection may actually do the trick. Already, things like smaller engine sizes and lighter cars are already playing major roles in spurring fuel-efficiency gains. Of course, Johnson Controls sells batteries specially built for stop-start systems, so Kesseler does have a bit of skin in this game. The 54.5-mpg CAFE standard equates to about a 40-mpg "real world" fuel-efficiency level. To put that into perspective, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said in a report late last year that model-year 2013 average fuel economy was an even 24 mpg. That was up from 23.6 mpg for the 2012 model year and 22.4 mpg for 2011.

Ford Focus ST checks into Jay Leno's Garage
Mon, 23 Sep 2013In a change of pace from the high-end vehicles that often appear in Jay Leno's Garage, Ford sends its hottest hatchback (in the US, at least), the 252-horsepower Focus ST, to be featured on Leno's show. Accompanying the five-door hatch is its chief engineer, Jamal Hameedi.
Riding on stylish 18-inch wheels with summer tires and with a spoiler that doubles as a lunch tray, Hameedi and Leno walk us through the finer points of what makes the ST special, which also includes bigger brakes, torque vectoring, a manual transmission and, of course, 252 hp and 270 pound-feet of torque from the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder engine, which is made possible by 21 psi of turbocharged boost.
Watch the video below to see what Leno thinks of the global Focus ST.
Evo grabs Ford's Fiesta R5 rally car by the scruff
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Evo and host Henry Catchpole were thinking of excuses reasons to borrow the bonkers Ford Fiesta R5 rally car for a day or two, when it struck them: the car is street legal. With access to the R5, some of the world's most beautiful driving roads in the English Lake Country nearby, and a handy video crewing hanging around, the plan seemed to write itself.
Based on the resulting video, it was a good plan. Without spoiling the video for you - something we can't really do in text as the best part is listening to the rally car run - Catchpole finds the Fiesta to be sublimely quick and massively satisfying. Even taking the car for a spin on a pseudo rally stage, after leaving the English countryside, does nothing but add to his assessment of the beastly little Ford. Scroll on below to see for yourself, and enjoy the ride.
