Reviewing: 2006 Used Mercury Grand Marquis LS Premium

If you took this car, slap some chrome bumpers on and take out the CD player and stick in the middle of the 70's, it would fit right in. It's got a V8, rear wheel drive, body-on-frame chassis, seats six and has a huge trunk. The engine is just a toned down Mustang engine. The rest of it is pretty much just a dressed up cop car.

I've drag raced it and autocrossed it and to most people's surprise, did fairly well for a two ton land yacht. The ride is smoother than most cars, but isn't the smoothest that I've driven (Lincoln Town Car). It has plenty of leather and chrome; Classic American Luxury. If you want an older, bigger car, but need the practicality of a new car, look at the Grand Marquis.

P.S. Mine was originally a Hertz rental car and was in an accident before I bought it, so it has had a few problems, but the Grand Marquis' record on reliability is as good as any Japanese car.

Pros — Size, Smooth ride, V8, Sleeper, Highway driving
Cons — Has been virtually unchanged in 10 years, so Car and Driver, etc. don't take it seriously. Also, it's primary sales base are seniors, so no one takes it serious (until you autocross it).
