Found this forum a few weeks ago and decided to join up...glad to be here! I've owned several Grand Marquis and Crown Vic's over the years - 1994 GMarq (used), 2000 GMarq (used), 2004 Crown Vic (new) and the ones I currently have.
At the moment I've got a 2001 Grand Marquis LS in Chestnut Brown metallic and our most recent acquisition a P2011 Grand Marquis LS Ultimate Edition in Vibrant White. The 2011 car only has a little over 34K miles (still smells new inside!) and was purchased from the estate of a local funeral director via his son. His Dad factory ordered this as his Mom's car back in late 2010 (he passed away 10 months later) and she drove it until she went into the nursing home in Fall 2018 (she passed away last Spring). The car was serviced every 2-3000 miles (more so due to time, rather than mileage). After bringing it home I discovered the owners manual contained the original window sticker carefully folded up inside it and there was also a factory tube of touchup paint unopened there too! One of the rear seatbelts even had the original foam factory protective sleeves on it that the dealer must have forgotten to take off in dealer prep. I've been wanting to find one this "new" for quite a few years and finally found it!!
I hope to contribute some good info gleaned from my experiences with these cars as well as check out what everyone else has to say about these cars in general.
Here are some photos....
