2000 Mercury Grand Marquis Ls Sedan 4-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
Cranston, Rhode Island, United States
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.

NHTSA will investigate some Ford Fusion, Lincoln MKZ models for power steering issue
Tue, 07 Oct 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is opening an investigation into the 2010-2012 Ford Fusion, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ, the 2012 MKZ Hybrid and 2011 Mercury Milan because the agency has hundreds of complaints of electric power steering failure in these models.
According to NHTSA's data, it has received 508 complaints of the power steering allegedly suddenly malfunctioning and resulting in increased effort to turn the wheel. In four incidents, these failures resulted in loss of control and crashes. According to the reports, in some cases a power steering warning message came on as the fault occurred, and other times the system restored itself by turning off and then restarting the vehicle. NHTSA said it has also received further field report data from Ford, but that information hasn't been publicly released yet.
For the moment, there isn't a recall for this failure on these models. NHTSA is just investigating them to "assess the scope, frequency and safety consequences of the alleged defect," and the agency says an estimated 938,000 vehicles could potentially be affected.
Junkyard Gem: 1991 Mercury Capri
Mon, Sep 19 2016Ford has gotten a lot of use out of the Capri name in the United States. First, there was the Lincoln Capri in the 1950s, followed by the Ford Capri Mk1 (which was sold by Mercury dealers in the USA but never actually badged as a Mercury). Then came the 1979-1986 Mercury Capri, built on the very successful Fox Platform and essentially a clone of the Mustang. Finally, in 1991, the Australian Ford Capri came to the United States. Here is an example of this rare car that I spotted in a Northern California self-service yard not long ago. Mechanically speaking, the 1991-1994 Capri was a Mazda 323 under the skin, complete with a member of the same B-series engine family that went into such cars as the Miata and Ford Escort. So, for a few years in the early 1990s, car shoppers who wanted a sporty Mazda convertible could choose between a Miata and a Capri. The Capri had front-wheel-drive, but could be had with factory turbocharging. These cars were reliable and fun, but had a tough time competing with the Miata in the showroom battles. You'll see the occasional example now and then, but most of the 1991-1994 Capris have met the same fate that awaits this one. Related Video:
Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception
Tue, 25 Sep 2012It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.
