2002 Ford Crown Victoria P71 Police Interceptor. This car has been in over 65 movies and tv shows in the last 2 years, so you know you can make money with it.
The big value in this car is that it's ready for a cheap lightbar and ready for movie work. Retired Police cars tend to all have their stickers removed by what I could only guess as a 4" metal grinder... (or a chainsaw in some cases LOL) Anyways, this is decent paint for movie work, otherwise repainting a decommissioned Police Car is around $1,300 and even more when it comes with body damage from sticker removal (Just go to a Police Auction and see the condition they are in!)
116,000 miles, STRONG motor and Automatic transmission. The wear issues with these cars have been resolved, as they are famous for having the heater hose port break off the intake manifold, so I replaced that last year.
The car WILL come with a Police Partition (Cage) and plastic prisoner seats, but I have a NEW rear seat if you wanna use the car as a commuter. 8 corner strobe lights are likely to come with the car, lots of Police Stuff if you wanna pay for it. (I got a 2008 that I'm switching everything over to.) If you wanna pay me fair market value for Police gear, I'll leave it on, saving you installation labor.
New stereo, with CD player but needs speakers
Paint it okay, rear doors are fresher paint, hood and trunk 2 years ago, but it's not as good as factory. There are a few small chips and scratches but ALL cop cars have those.
I upgraded to slotted and drilled front rotors and new pads 2 weeks ago, you can feel the difference in hard stopping, especially if repeated stops
Rear windows do not operate and I will be giving you rear door panels off my 2008, so they won't match color wise.
Driver's spotlight works great, I never got around to seeing why the passenger Side one isn't working.
Front windshield was replaced last year. Also replaced most of the pulleys and serpentine belt as well as the alternator last year.
The interior is that blue color, not too pretty, but for movie work it's fine. headliner will have some material removed when I pull the dash cam, and some damage from installing lights, switches, etc, Deal with it.
Most of my decals are magnetic, so you don't have to worry about removing them.
You will have a lot of hubcaps, the baby moons are on, and LAPD replica covers are over them. I also have about 7 spares that I can give you.
There's a nail in one of the tires, been there for a while, never been an issue, tires are okay, but probably need replacing by next winter.
There will be a few holes in the roof from 2 Antennas and my Arjent S2 LED lightbar that might be for sale.
Hit me up if you have any questions, don't be looking for a Beauty Queen, but it runs strong, gets good MPG and of course these cars run forever.
Come out and test drive it.

Rolling footage of the 2015 Ford Mustang hits YouTube [w/video]
Thu, 26 Dec 2013Just in time for the holidays: Ford took the 2015 Mustang to Route 66 to cook up rolling footage, and we've been given some of the leftovers ahead of the meal. There are no burnouts, no donuts, no revving, and thankfully, no music. It's just two minutes and 26 seconds of the new pony car running free in the desert.
So in case you needed more visualizing help, the video below will help you start imagining how you'll look in your 2014 Christmas present to yourself...
Ford opens 88 new dealerships in China in a single day
Mon, 23 Jun 2014"Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last year." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China during the first half of 2014." "Ford opened 88 dealerships in China last month." None of those statements - even the last one - would seem unbelievable. Saying "Ford opened up 88 dealerships in China last Thursday," though, is a bit more dramatic.
Yes, on June 19 alone, Ford opened the doors on nearly 100 showrooms in the People's Republic, boosting the Blue Oval's total presence in the country to 750 dealerships. Of course, while an overabundance of dealers in the US proved troublesome for American manufacturers back in 2008 and 2009, there's no such concern in China. Considering the country's huge population and the breakneck pace of the local auto industry, you could be forgiven for being surprised Ford only has 750 outlets at this stage.
What's notable about this most recent push, besides the sheer volume of new stores, is their location. Over three-quarters of the new dealerships are in so-called Tier 4 cities, which are smaller towns that still contain millions of people. This fits with Ford's strategy in China of avoiding the bigger battlegrounds that are already dominated by competitors and focusing on setting up shop in newer markets that may have been overlooked, according to Automotive News.
2016 Ford Focus RS may yet be AWD, US sales likely
Fri, 29 Aug 2014When it comes to forbidden fruit, few vehicles are spoken of in as hushed a tone as the Ford Focus RS. The turbocharged, five-cylinder hot hatch could only be seen from afar by American customers as it tore up the roads of Europe. And while it's safe to say that Ford's Yankee fans are quite happy to now be on equal footing with drivers in the old country thanks to the Focus ST, we doubt there'd be much protestation over a successor to the RS arriving stateside.
Of course, we've seen images of the new RS undergoing testing, but a new story by Road and Track aims to fill in some very large blanks in our knowledge of that car, thanks to a pair of mysterious insiders at the Ford. Chief among those is this - the RS will almost certainly make its way to the US, albeit in limited quantities. It gets better, though.
Under hood, the new RS is unsurprisingly expected to borrow the 2.3-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder from the 2015 Ford Mustang and 2015 Lincoln MKC. While that twin-scroll turbo produces 310 horsepower in the Mustang and 285 ponies in the MKC, R&T expects the RS to deliver quite a bit more firepower - 325 to 350 hp, with preference going to the higher output due to the limited-edition nature of the RS. This roughly fits with previous reports.
