2000 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS LS HPP 3.55 This is likely one of the nicest police handling package sedans you will find. Make no mistake, no bad guys have ever ridden in this one, but it would hold its own in a high speed ‘interceptor chase!
Up for sale is my 2000 GRAND MARQUIS LS HPP. It has 30,000 original pampered miles. That’s a little more than 2,000 miles a year!
This baby’s been babied, baby!
It has NEVER been rained on, in the rain or snow. A $29,000 car new. Undercarriage is in like new condition. This car has been a lifelong “garage queen” which was originally ordered by an older gentleman (retired law enforcement guy) who checked off virtually every option. Car is the extremely desirable color of Silver Frost, a spectacular color for this body style. Paint is in phenomenal shape except for a couple of small “grandpa rash” scratches on the front bumper cover. Featuring the bulletproof 4.6L V-8 used in everything from Lincoln Town Cars to Mustang GT’s, this beauty is LOADED with Options: · LS luxury model · Digital Dash Option · Trip Computer Feature (miles to empty, e.g.) · Leather Seats · Leather Steering Wheel · Stereo Cassette · Power Trunk · Upgraded Automatic Climate Control · Power Windows · Rear Defrost · Vanity Mirrors · Dual Power Mirrors · Dual Reclining Power Comfort Seats (It’s like driving your living room!) · Traction Control · Handling Package · Performance Package · 3.55 Rear End · Dual Exhaust (factory!) · Convenience Light Package · Electronic Cruise Control · Electronic Compass Rear View Mirror · Heavy Duty suspension · Heavy Duty Sway Bars · Heavy Duty Rear Air Suspension · Front and Rear ceiling mounted spot lights · Front Dual Arm Rests · Rear Arm Rest · Power Trunk Release · Traction Control Bypass Switch
Its engine compartment is immaculate as you can see. All service records since new, original window sticker, bill of sale, ALL PAPERWORK including the receipt for the FOUR GRAND NEW GOODYEAR EAGLE SPORT 225 60 16 ALL SEASON RADIALS mounted on the flawless 16 x 8 “lacy” wheels. Leather, carpets, headliner, trunk in fantastic condition - Always garaged in climate controlled garage. No sun fading, no rust. NEVER IN RAIN, SNOW, SALT. 18 MPG city, 24 MPG highway. This vehicle needs absolutely nothing but a new owner. It comes with all of the manuals, keys, e.g. This vehicle is garaged in Rhode Island and is sold as-is, where-is, with no warranty, expressed or implied. I am a private owner, not a dealer. Florida registration and I have clear title in my name.
This is one of the best cars ever made and they routinely go 300,000 miles with their bulletproof reliability. You would be hard pressed to find one as nice as this one and in my opinion, this series is nicer looking than the goofy 2003 and after models.
I require a nonrefundable deposit of $1000 immediately via PayPal at the conclusion of the auction, with the balance due in the form of a bank check in five business days. For HALF the price of a tired Accord or Camry, this car is a bargain which will only provide enjoyment and reliable, safe, rugged dependability in the years to come. These Ford and Mercury “panther” sedans are no longer made and few were built with these options. Needs nothing, just serviced – all fluids changed, four new tires, alignment, even a full tank of gas! It’s been waxed and detailed and looks new.
No joyrides. I will consider test drives scheduled at mutually convenient times only for bidders who've met reserve. I am not a dealer and my time is tight.

Ford finds flex-fuel engine design plays big role in emissions output
Mon, Jan 6 2014How bad is ethanol for your engine? There's been a lot of debate on this issue as the US considers upping the biofuel content in the national gasoline supply from 10 percent (E10) to 15 percent (E15). The ethanol industry and some scientists say higher ethanol blends show no "meaningful differences" in new engines while the oil industry says ethanol creates health risks. Researchers working at the Ford Research and Innovation Center decided to take a closer look at how a wide range of gas-ethanol blends - E0, E10, E20, E30, E40, E55 and E80 - affected the emissions coming out of a flex-fuel 2006 Mercury Grand Marquis. To see the full report, printed in the journal Environmental Science & Technology, requires payment, but there is an abstract and Green Car Congress has some more details. The gist is that, "with increasing ethanol content in the fuel, the tailpipe emissions of ethanol, acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, methane, and ammonia increased." At least NOx and NMHC emissions decreased. The researchers say that the effects are due to the fuel and "are expected for all FFVs," but that the way that a manufacturer calibrates the engine will affect NOx, THC, and NMOG emissions. It's this last bit that's important, since the researchers found, "Higher ethanol content in gasoline affects several fundamental fuel properties that can impact emissions. ... These changes can have positive or negative effects that can depend on engine design, hardware, and control strategy. In addition to direct emissions impacts, higher ethanol content fuel can also provide more efficient combustion and overall engine operation under part-load conditions and under knock-limited higher-load conditions." So, as we head towards more ethanol in our fuel supply (maybe), manufacturers are going to need to learn how to burn it most efficiently.
Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
Junkyard Gem: 1970 Mercury Cougar
Tue, Oct 10 2017The plot of the Mercury Cougar story took a lot of strange twists and turns during its 35 or so years, from ponycar to immense luxobarge to family sedan to station wagon to Integra competitor. Examples of the first Cougar generation are nearly extinct in American wrecking yards, so I was excited to spot this one in Denver. Lest you shed any tears over this car going to the crusher, know that it was suffering from the ravenous teeth of the Rust Monster long before it got here. The 1967-1970 Cougar was based on the Mustang platform of the same era, and so it was a sleeker and quicker cat than its successors. Still, the longer wheelbase, extra equipment and all the cool-looking bodywork added some heft; the 1970 Mustang hardtop with V8 scaled in at 2,923 pounds, while the 1970 Cougar weighed 3,307 pounds. The current Ford Focus would fit just between those two weights. There was also a mid-cycle refresh in that era, with the '67-'68 and '69-'70 having different exterior styling and interiors. The '69 and '70 had different front end styling as well, with the latter re-adopting the vertical grille slats featured on the earlier model years. The '69 has horizontal slats. The drivetrain and just about everything else of value has been shorn from this car, perhaps before it arrived in this yard. In 1970, a bewildering assortment of V8 engines was available in the Cougar, including a Boss 302, two completely different 351s, and a 335-horse Cobra Jet 428. The base engine was a 351 Windsor making 250 gross horsepower. Since car rooftops mostly don't rust, why would someone cut out this one? Sheet metal needed for patching a leaky shed roof, perhaps? This 2005-2006 Denver Nuggets window sticker indicates that the car was on the street (probably) as recently as 11 years ago. This content is hosted by a third party.
