2008 Mercury Grand Marquis Ls Sedan 4-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
Maricopa, Arizona, United States
Offered is my wife’s 2008 Mercury Grand Marquis LS which is smoke and pet free. Options on car: WSW Tires, FULL size spare tire on black steel wheel. Premium 6 CD/Satellite (Sat receiver not installed) Radio–with aftermarket iPod Adapter for YOUR iPod connected via SAT button on radio, California Emissions, wheel locks and locking gas/fuel cap. Many standard items on this car including dual 6 way seats with lower back support, power door and trunk lock, fog lights, adjustable brake/gas pedals, rear air spring suspension. Car was never involved in any accident. As with any 80,000 mile vehicle, there are some minor paint touch ups. I will include the touch up paint for your future use. The tires are about 70% worn which is reflected in the price. It didn’t pay to install new tires as the warranty would be voided to a new owner. Other than that, this is a turn key car meaning there are no known problems as everything works as designed. This car has NEVER been exposed to rock salt, snow or ice, therefore there is no rot. Interior and trunk lighting has been upgraded to white LEDs. This can revert back to factory style lighting easily. I did change the front seat armrests for ones with storage compartments. They were the wrong shade of gray, so I dyed them. The leftover dye will be included as it matched the interior color. Please note that the upgraded armrests made this car into a 5 passenger vehicle. If you do not like or want them, I am willing to reinstall the factory units that have no storage. There is an external transmission oil filter installed to make sure the transmission fluid is clean. I used Mobil 1 engine oil from day one. When I changed/flushed the transmission fluid, I used Mobil 1 synthetic transmission fluid. I kept this car under a severe usage maintenance schedule due to some dust in my area. Most likely that was not required but I wanted to be sure. The air filter was changed every 10,000 miles--far earlier than the usual 30,000 miles. I have included my maintenance records to show what and when service was done. If you have question about this car, ask me a question as I am hiding nothing. My wife is the second owner of this car. A business friend owned the car for just a few months as she was transferred to Europe and didn’t take the car. We learned about that after she returned the car to the Dealership. Since we liked the car, we purchased it right away with 3,875 miles on it in May 2008. I recommend to have a professional to inspect this car as I have nothing to hide. I usually do not allow unknown persons to test drive my cars as I do not know that person’s driving skills or intent. The only thing that should show up on any Internet check of this car is a case of vandalism–the tires were ice picked at a local mall in 2009. All of the tires were replaced and are filled with nitrogen. Interior windows were tinted and all door windows have vent covers on them--easy to remove if you don't like them. No personal items that are visible in photos are included. I can store car at my location for a few weeks if paid in full. For out of State or Country purchaser, arrangements can be made for your pick up at the SkyHarbor, Phoenix AZ Airport. You must have a PayPal account to bid on this vehicle. IF YOUR FEEDBACK RATING IS LESS THAN 10, YOU ARE REQUIRED TO CONTACT ME FIRST BEFORE BIDDING. OTHERWISE, I’LL REMOVE/CANCEL YOUR BID. I've been an eBay seller for over ten years with a 100% feedback rating. My 2007 Town Car was sold on eBay in December 2013 and is now in Germany. A 2008 Mercury Grand Marquis with posted maintenance records is hard to find. Please view all of the posted photos. I even took one while washing the car to show how the water beads up due to the waxing of this vehicle. This car was garaged kept and is in very good condition with a Kelly Blue Book value of $9,266 2008 Mercury Grand Marquis 2MEHM75V58X616633 April 17, 2014 Oil & Filter changes 05/14/08 Oil and Filter changed Mobil 1 5W20 6Qts.

Has the Mercury Marauder gotten better with age?
Fri, Oct 23 2015In the early 2000s Mercury desperately wanted to develop some edge for its brand – seemingly stuck between a quasi-premium, quasi-performance space in the Ford Universe. The Marauder is perhaps the most famous of the vehicles that resulted from those efforts, and is rapidly approaching Modern Classic status, today. Effectively a murdered out Grand Marquis with some updated trim pieces – what are company parts bins for, if not raiding? – the Marauder looked convincingly like a bad guy car. The 4.6-liter V8 under its hood that had been breathed on by engineers for a little more power, kicking out 302 horsepower and 318 pound-feet of torque from the factory. Not exactly Ferrari-baiting numbers, but it'd give your local cop's car a run for its money. Being a wild child of the last decade, of course our friends at MotorWeek had it on the program. What better way to test your mean-mugging muscle sedan than with John Davis' tanned and steady hands?
Kit Cat: Mercury Cougar makes perfect Bugatti Veyron substitute
Thu, 24 Feb 2011Bugatti Veyron kit car - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you've got a pulse in your wrist and a snapping brain cell in your head, chances are you wouldn't mind parking a Bugatti Veyron in your garage. But for most mere mortals, scrounging up the cash for a physics-bending piece of 16-cylinder glory would require all sorts of unpalatable tasks. Fortunately for those who want to look the part without having to participate in human trafficking, the kit car universe has stepped in to save the day. All you need is a 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, a boat load of fiberglass and a little patience.
Oh, and $89,000.
Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
