The Crown Victoria is well known as an old people's car or a cop car. Or, perhaps as a taxi. That's aboout it in a nutshell. But wait, there's that group of people who want a super heavy duty everything car that will hold 5 people, run a long time, has a trunk that can hold a month's groceries, or most of another family, and requires almost no maintenance. Yes, it does look like one or all of the above, but what a car. First off the Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, also known as the CVPI is not available to the general public. The closest thing available to regular fleets is the taxi and commercial model, which has most of the same equipment, but only has a single exhaust (239 HP vs 250) and doesn't have the 140 MPH calibrated speedometer. Of course you won't be getting it with the police lights, but that's another story. These vehicles have heavy duty everything. From the wheels, to the heavy duty frame, to steel bumper boxes rather than the crushable aluminum in your everyday driver. Transmission, power steering and engine oil coolers, as well as suspension that takes hits that would destroy normal vehicle parts fast. The CVPI and commercial/taxi vehicles do not differ much from the 2003-2007 model years, other than the wheel sizes (17 inch vs 16's for the earlier models)and some minor horsepower boosting. The closest thing in a civilian model is the LX Sport with the handling package which gives a reasonable ride and better interior and luxury. The CVPI is not a luxuruious car by any means, but it handles and drives great in any weather and will outlast just about any other full size car on the road.

Excellent choice for low budget buyers / owners. Low maintenance cost, reliable engine, plenty of space. Powerful, good acceleration, easy to handle car. Huge trunk and enough space for 3 adults in the back. Had it now for 7 month without the slightest issue with it.
