    New from Florida.

    New guy to this forum, but I have been around a bit. I own a 2010 Grand Marquis that I bought in May from an old lady’s estate, she bought from a dealer in South Georgia that bought it in early 2012 from a rental company in NYC. I’ve made a few changes to the car since I got it, but nothing that can’t be reversed with a good day’s work.

    Obvious changes are the Dodge Charger rims and 20% tint, but I also have a HPP dual exhaust I added from the junkyard (150 in parts and a couple welds), a P71 airbox and zip tube (no tune yet), also from the junkyard ($40 in parts), new speakers, and a couple 10” subs in the trunk.

    Welcome. Sounds like a nice car. perhaps you might consider a heavy(er) rear sway bar as a handling improver.

          Been told that a lot actually. I actually really like the boatiness, believe it or not. Originally bought the car because parents said I can’t take the Thunderbird to school and I was looking for a similar driving experience.
