1992 Ford Crown Victoria P75 Touring Sedan, Very Low Miles, Detective Unmarked on 2040-cars
Brighton, Michigan, United States
FOMOCO's “Special” Crown Victoria … The 1992 Touring Sedan (P75) This is a rare opportunity to win
what could be the lowest mile Ford Crown Victoria P75 Touring Sedan in the
country. If you’re NOT familiar with this 1 year only Special from the Ford
Motor company, read the description “P75
history…” at the end of the description. This is not your standard P71 interceptor !!! I bought this vehicle several years back from
a retired Police detective in Buffalo New York who managed to rack up only 29 300
miles. This was his private car and never served detective duty. I’m a car
collector and couldn’t resist buying it. I hardly drove (less than 200 mls)
it over the last 6 years to preserve it’s low mileage. It was stored away, I
just kept the fluids topped off and started it regularly. The car appears to be stock except a
few tasteful, modifications done by the previous owner which seem to reflect his
police background: · Like new dual Flowmaster mufflers and turndowns before the rear
axle (they still look like new). They add a nice rumble without causing
resonance or drone in the interior · Upgraded Pioneer stereo (must have been done in the 90’s since it is an AM FM casette unit) · Various P75 & Interceptor commemorative emblems /decals
(They are all 3M adhesive emblems and could be removed for a stock look) I do
have all original body emblems. · Ford Racing cold air intake According
to a sticker on the driver side rear window, the car has been “super sealed”
(rust prevention treatment similar to Ziebart) when new and it shows. I don’t
see any rust on the body. However, I wouldn’t describe this Crown Vic as flawless show car,
it’s a 22 year old automobile with little marks here and there, but very little
effort could turn this into one of the cleanest, probably lowest mile
P75’s in the country. Or
you just enjoy it for what it is, a powerful rear wheel drive fully loaded V8
police interceptor with less than 30.000 mls! They don’t build them like this
anymore. I
have the clear title in my hands, but currently registration is expired. You’re
welcome to come by and inspect the car in person, or inquire about details in
writing through Ebay. I
reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Interior: I
rate it 8 out of 10. Very clean, flawless headliner, minor stains on carpet,
new floor mats. Rear bench and passenger seat are like new. Driver seat has
slight discoloration seems a shade darker as the rest, however it is the
original (P75 exclusive seat) I tried to capture it but you can’t see it on the
photos. The P75’s had every factory
option available in 1992: ·
Power Steering ·
Power Seats with lumbar support ·
Power windows ·
Power lock ·
Power doors ·
Power Mirrors ·
Power Antenna ·
Keyless entry ·
Air condition ·
Anti lock brakes ·
Remote trunk and fuel door release ·
Traction control ·
Rear air suspension ·
Full leather interior All Power options work except the remote trunk
release occasionally cut’s out but the key always works.
AC has been converted to R134 and blows ice-cold. Airbag light blinks. Exterior: I
rate it a 7 out of 10. Car is 22 years old and has minor nicks and here and
there. There are too small to show on the photos however. All P75’s came in a
two tone color scheme. Glass is flawless. Door edges and wheel wells look
extremely clean. Headlight and taillight lenses are clear. Good rubber parts.
Original alloys have some clear coat peeling. Engine, Transmission: 29
528 original miles. Not much else to say. I changed all fluids this week. Engine oil +
filter Transmission fluid + filter, brakefluid, rear axle fluid. No noises or
leaks. The P75’s has all the P71 Interceptor heavy duty parts (springs, shocks,
brakes, cooling, quick ratio steering, swaybars, traction control, dual exhaust
etc.). Tires, Brakes, Suspension: Tires are old and should be replaced if used as a driver, however they have between 30 and 50% thread left.. Brakes are strong, pads seem to be new. The emergency brake cable seized since it was never used and was removed. Air suspension and load levelling work as intended. Steering is tight and direct, no leaks or noises. The P75 history… The 1992 Ford Crown Victoria Touring
Sedan P75 is truly a unique and eclectic car. In fact these are so rare, I did
not even know they existed until I did some homework on the models. Most
people, like myself, that are fans of the Crown Victoria know of the P71
(Police Car), and the other “P” designations of the many base and enhanced
models of Crown Victorias. For only one year in 1992, these few limited
production cars were built as the Crown Victoria Touring Sedan under the P75
VIN Designation. 1992 is also the first year of the newer crown vic with the
4.6 engine. I am assuming due to the 30% extra price over base and the fact
these were more “performance” type cars than the general Crown Vic crowd
attracted, the orders were not many thus it was only made one year. I would say
this was really the first version of what Chevy did with the Impala SS. I would
also say that the total productions of these Touring Sedans are about a % of
the Impala SS too. I really have not been able to find out how many of these
were actually made. What this car is, is essentially a P71 with every available option
known to the Ford Lineup designated under the one time used P75 VIN ID. Later
Crown Vic’s would see things like the HPP package, sport package and special
ordered version of the car per unit, but not to this loaded out level as a
“Touring Sedan” package like the P75. The Touring Sedan has the suspension
of the P71 with the higher rate springs, larger sway bars, quicker ratio
steering, etc plus all the luxury items found on a loaded out Town Car. The
Touring Sedan also boasts the 3.27 rear gear ratio with traction control, 4 wheel
disk brakes, dual exhaust higher performance engine (210HP), heavy duty
cooling, power steering cooling, extra transmission cooling, gauges, larger
wheels and performance tires, ABS, Traction, etc. It had a top speed said to hit in the 130s. (same as P71) Of course things like power windows, power seats with recliners and lumbar, power mirrors, power antenna Door keypad system. The door panels and leather seats are special to the Touring Sedan along with the dark wood trim inside. I do not believe there is an option available that is not on this car. It has it all. I also believe that all touring sedans are a two tone color combination. |

Honda poised for growth, Detroit to hold steady, Car Wars study says
Fri, Jun 5 2015The automotive industry is expected to keep booming in the US over the next several years, but the train might start running out of steam in the long term, according to 2015's Car Wars report from Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy. The forecast focuses on changes between the 2016 and 2019 model years, and the latest trends appear similar in some cases to the past predictions. Sales are expected to keep growing and reach a peak of 20 million in 2018, according to the Detroit Free Press. The expansion is projected to come from a quick pace of vehicle launches, with an average of 48 introductions a year – 26 percent more than in 1996. Crossovers are expected to make up a third of these, maintaining their strong popularity. However, Murphy predicts a decline, as well. By 2025, total sales could fall to around 15 million units. As of May 2015, the seasonally adjusted annual rate for this year stands at 17.71 million. Like last year, Honda is predicted to be a big winner in the future thanks to products like the next-gen Civic. "Honda should be the biggest market share gainer," Murphy said when presenting the report, according to Free Press. Meanwhile, in a situation similar to Car Wars from 2012, a lack of many new vehicles is expected to cause a drop for Hyundai, Kia, and Nissan. Based on this forecast, Ford, General Motors, and FCA US will all generally maintain market share for the coming years. The report does make some future product predictions, though. The next Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra might come in 2019, which is earlier than expected. Also, Lincoln could get a Mustang-based coupe for 2017, a compact sedan for 2018 and an Explorer-based model in 2019, according to the Free Press.

Feds looking into Ford Explorer exhaust leak complaints
Fri, 20 Jun 2014There may be a burgeoning problem with exhaust leaks in the 2011-2014 model year Ford Explorer. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is examining multiple complaints of a gasoline smell in the cabin of these SUVs. However, the exact cause of this problem is still unknown.
"The agency is reviewing all available data and will take appropriate action as warranted," said a NHTSA spokesperson in an email to Automotive News. Owners seem to generally complain on the regulator's website of the smell entering the cabin through the air vents. At this time, the government organization has not yet opened an official investigation into the problem, though. When it does begin inspecting vehicles, NHTSA posts a detailed breakdown of its public data online.
Similar problems have been reported about the Explorer in the past, though. In 2013, Ford issued a recall for the 2013 model year of the SUV due to a fuel leak that could cause drivers to smell a gasoline odor and repaired them again later for another possible leak. In response to Autoblog's questions, Ford responded via email: "We are not aware of a NHTSA investigation. We are currently reviewing the case and in the event that any action is required, we will address it promptly."
Ford Recalls '13 Escape For 11th Time
Fri, Aug 15 2014Only in dealer showrooms for two years now, the 2013 Ford Escape has already been recalled for safety hazards 11 times. The most recent recall for the beleaguered vehicle came Friday, when the company announced it was recalling almost 160,000 Escapes and Focus ST hatchbacks from the '13 and '14 model years because of a wiring problem that could cause the engine to stall. Caused by a faulty wiring harness, Ford said the defect could result in reduced power, hesitation or outright stalling. The company said it knew of no crashes or injuries caused by the flaw. Customers affected will be notified by mail. It was the latest problem for a vehicle beset by recalls from the moment it started rolling off the assembly lines. Starting on July 6, 2012, the '13 Escapes have been recalled for an assortment of problems, including multiple hazards with fuel lines that could result in engine fires, fluid leaks in the engine that could also result in fires, problems with engines overheating, delays in airbags deploying and more.
