1993 4.6L Mercury Grand Marquis. Don't look at this post if you don't understand what conditions these cars are usually in. 90% of them are beat to shit. I've personally owned 2 crown vics and 2 grand marquis. I can tell you every problem these cars could and would have, and its not much. Best condition 20 year old grand marquis on the market.
Where do I start? This car is unbelievable. BRAND NEW TOYO TIRES!!!!!! The frame is black. Black as in not a spot of rust. Exhaust isn't even rusty, cats aren't even rusty. When I say black frame I mean southern car, garage kept. The body has little dots of rust under the car. little tiny beginner rust for a 20 year old car. Not flaking rust, not even remotely close. Immaculate. The car has 83,000 miles. Transmission is FLAWLESS and overdrive WORKS. The engine is a 4.6L V8 with an aluminum intake manifold (not plastic like 1995+ and newer models!! Which causes them to leak coolant into the engine!!) perfect radiator, perfect steering, perfect suspension, brake lines are NOT RUSTED! Fuel lines are NOT RUSTED!! underbody is UNBELIEVABLE. comes with alloy rims and DIGITAL DASH! Gets 20mpg! AC is ICE COLD. Heat is HOT. POWER EVERYTHING.
This car was owned by an older lady for 53,000 miles, and then a very up-tight rich fellow I bought it from who kept records on the entire car with a binder. His 22 year old son drove the car. All he did was change the alternator and he has receipts for every oil change.
Now what's wrong with it?
1) Vacuum line leak. Very normal for crown vics and grand marquis. Easy fix, couple hours of labor. Doesn't affect ANYTHING. You can hear it when you open the hood ONLY.
2) Drivers seat is torn. The kid drove with his shirt off and stretched and tore the leather. $150-200 for a seat on Ebay. Easy fix, unbolt, unplug, remove, plug it in and rebolt. 1 hour of labor. Seat is full power.
3) Driver side AND passenger window motors bad. $50 fix. 1 hour of labor. Glass is still perfect. Again, a very common problem for any car 20 years old.
4) Small paint scrapes on rear and front bumper.
That's all that's wrong. Not a dent in the body, 83,000 original miles. If you want to put 100,000+ miles on a car for cheap, with low maintenance, a car that will ALWAYS get you through the winter, a car that will ALWAYS start, always get you to your destination and never leave you stranded. A 4.6L is Fords equivalent of the Chevy 5.7L, and it gets 10mpg better gas mileage. Grand Marquis and Crown Victorias are very high, if not TOP on the list of the most reliable cars out on the market. I'm not asking much, but I'm not letting this go for a steal. All it needs is a seat and 2 window motors. These cars hold their value very well for their age if you want to buy it for your kid to drive, or want a car for the time-being and want to sell it later.
Happy bidding, this car is a gem.

Ford finally issues recall for 230K minivans over rust problems
Sun, 10 Mar 2013The rust issue in the rear wheel wells of 2004-2007 Ford Freestar and Mercury Monterey minivans has finally led to a recall. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration began an investigation into the matter in 2011, said investigation being upgraded to an engineering analysis a year later while NHTSA tried to figure out how many model years should be included in the assessment.
Ford has decided to recall all of the 230,000 minivans potentially affected, namely those sold in salt-belt states and countries like Canada. The excess rust in the rear wheel wells was also able to prevent the third-row seats from locking to the floor of the minivan. To repair the problem, owners can take their minivans to dealers, and the dealers will place new panels in the wheel wells, replace the third-row seat mounting brackets and relocate the latches to an area away from any corrosion.
Ford says it will begin notifying owners during the last week of March.
Ford recalls Five Hundred, Mercury Montego sedans over fuel tank woes
Mon, 18 Jul 2011Ford has announced through the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that it is recalling nearly 3,000 examples of its Five Hundred and Mercury Montego (pictured) sedans from the 2007 model year.
The action, which affects 2,945 vehicles, is due to potentially defective welds between the filler neck and the fuel tank, a condition that could result in a fuel leak or the smell of gasoline reaching the occupants. In the worst-case scenario, a leak could cause a fire. Cars with the affected fuel tank problem could see an illuminated dashboard warning light as a result of the evaporative emissions leak being detected.
Ford will inspect and replace the fuel tank at no cost to owners (those who have already had the procedure done at-cost can apply for reimbursement), and the Dearborn automaker will begin notifying Five Hundred and Montego owners beginning August 15. Check out the official NHTSA press release after the jump for further details.
Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman
Wed, 17 Nov 2010Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!
