2005 Ford Crown Victoria Unmarked Police Interceptor, Mint, Low Miles, Gorgeous! on 2040-cars
Canal Winchester, Ohio, United States
This is one of the nicest examples of it's
kind available anywhere. This is a gorgeous, always unmarked United
States Federal Government unit that came out of service with the
Federal Bureau of Investigation in California in the fall of 2011 (at that time, it had only 18,000 miles on it). It now has only 31,379 miles. It was purchased by a meticulous enthusiast, and law-enforcement officer, here in Ohio and driven only in perfect conditions. It has never seen a winter, nor any salt or snow, and is absolutely rust and corrosion-free. It has been garage kept and is as close to new as you will find. It is finished in Silver Birch Clearcoat
Metallic, one of the most beautiful and rare colors available on the
Crown Victoria. If you are searching for the ultimate Crown Victoria
Police Interceptor, here you go...
You are viewing an absolutely beautiful, very low-mileage, always unmarked, loaded 2005 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor with the coveted "Street Appearance Package". Recently out of service from United States Federal Government, Federal Bureau of Investigation in California, where it was assigned to one agent for it's entire life, with only 31,379 actual, documented miles on it. This is a beautiful example of a very rare, hard to find car in a very rare and very desirable color. The finish is absolutely beautiful and this vehicle has an
absolutely spotless Carfax report. It has never been involved in any
accidents. This unit has never been in regular police service and has never had a lightbar or decals installed. This unit includes all of the options you would expect...traction control, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, factory auxiliary police dome lamp, power trunk release, factory AM/FM/CD stereo, cruise control, power split-bench velour cloth front and velour rear seating w/dual fold-down center armrests, full factory carpeting and a heavy-duty, 8.8" 3.27 ratio "Traction-Lok" limited-slip rear differential. These items, of course, are just the beginning of the list of equipment on this car. In my years of buying
and selling police vehicles, I have had very few cars that come close
to the condition of these units, they are extremely well maintained,
actually over-maintained, and typically need no repairs. This
was a one-driver car, assigned to one federal agent throughout the
entire life of the car. It was then sold to a meticulous, picky owner who BABIED this car over the past two and one-half years, putting only 13,000 miles on it in that time. For those of you who know, that makes all of the
difference in the world when it comes to how these cars are maintained
and treated. It has NEVER been smoked in, looks as close to new as you
will find and has virtually zero wear on the interior, even on the
seating. The rear seat appears to have never been used. All of the factory manuals are included with the vehicle, and are in place in the glove box. The trunk compartment is extremely clean, and the original full size spare tire is in place. This
unit is also equipped with, of course, the full "Police Interceptor"
package which includes the 4.6-liter H.O. engine, 4-speed overdrive
heavy-duty transmission, 3.27 rear "Traction-Lok" differential, lateral bow (roof) reinforcement, 245-50-18 ultra-high performance
radials that are in beautiful condition and mounted on a brand-new set of factory, 18 X 8 "Marauder" alloy wheels with correct-appearing "Ford" logos (instead of the Mercury logos), stainless-steel dual exhaust with factory crossover pipe,
police-only lightweight balanced aluminum driveshaft, special
police-spec heavy-duty frame, 4-wheel disc brakes, severe-duty
suspension, heavy-duty cooling, certified 140-mph speedometer and much, much more. For those of you who know Crown Victorias, you are probably already aware that the 2004-2011 models are the years to have...2004 was the first year for the higher-horsepower engine, and 2005 was the first year for the larger, heavy-duty 31-spline rear axles. All
Crown Victorias produced from 2004-onward utilized the new, improved,
250-horsepower 4.6 liter V8 engine and are the fastest Crown Victorias
produced due to many changes that were made, mainly in the intake
system. Previously, the Police Interceptor produced 239 horsepower, but
the 2004-newer Police Interceptor increased that number to 250
horsepower due to the addition of a new "Marauder" air intake setup.
This included a new airbox that resembles the Mercury Marauder airbox
(raised airbox lid, deeper bottom), with a new, larger, integrated 80 mm
(3.1 in) mass airflow (MAF) sensor that is part of the airbox lid. This
allows for much more precise flow calibration and reduces the chances
of air leakage. The P71 zip tube (the flexible rubber hose between the
throttle body and MAF outlet) is also used to reduce NVH (noise,
vibration, and harshness) as well as transfer air from the airbox to the
throttle body with minimal flow resistance. Crown
Victorias like this one are becoming nearly extinct, so here's your
opportunity if you've been looking for one of the nicest you will find
in a rare and desirable color combination with ultra-low mileage. These are the Crown Victorias aficionados lust after, and this is a GORGEOUS example. It is very responsive, smooth-shifting and, of course, very fast. This
unit is in absolutely excellent overall condition, has been very well-maintained
and has little to none of the normal wear and tear you would expect to find on a
used police vehicle. This vehicle, as most used vehicles do,
will have imperfections...this typically includes; scratches, chips,
nicks, dings, etc....that being said, this car has nothing of any consequence that I am aware of and no known mechanical
defects. It runs and drives excellent. Please, keep in mind, we
strive to find the nicest used vehicles possible, but they are still
used vehicles. This
2005 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor will sell to the high
bidder at the end of the auction, providing the low reserve is met.
Please complete all inspections BEFORE bidding...if you win the auction,
you own the vehicle. I
am a law-enforcement officer as well and as such, work long hours so
you are free to call me as late in the evening as you like. I can be
reached anytime at (614) 893-3857. I will take calls 24/7 up until the
end of the auction. |

Autoblog joins Elon Musk and Danica Patrick in accepting ALS Ice Bucket Challenge
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Unless you've been living in an off-the-grid cabin in the woods for the last couple of weeks or abstain entirely from social media activities, you've probably seen someone you know dump a bucket of ice and water over their own head recently. While the origins of the so-called Ice Bucket Challenge are shrouded in a history typical of Internet memes, its effectiveness in raising money and awareness for the ALS Association has been astonishing.
Celebrities from the worlds of entertainment, sports, technology and more have generated untold millions of video views in support of the organization that is helping patients with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, better known as Lou Gehrig's Disease), and generated a much needed influx of cash, as well. Recent reports have some $15.6M raised in the last two weeks.
Of course, the big-hearted world of automotive celebrities has taken part in the drenching charity effort as well. Follow on below for some of the biggest names on four wheels getting iced for charity, with a smattering of your favorite Autobloggers thrown in for good measure.
Detroit's new fleet of donated police cars have safety issues [w/video]
Wed, 23 Oct 2013In a show of generosity in mid-August, Detroit's business leaders donated $8 million to the Police Department and Fire Department in order to buy 100 new police vehicles and 23 EMS ambulances. But now officers have discovered - and complained - that the police vehicles have glaring safety issues, Deadline Detroit reports. It is not made clear what models of the fleet vehicles - which include police versions of the Ford Taurus, the Chevrolet Caprice and the Dodge Charger - are affected by the safety issues.
Officers reportedly have complained that the Plexiglass partition separating front-seat officers and back-seat prisoners is easily breached, and that the front passenger seat is installed too close to the dashboard. Prisoners who manage to writhe out of their handcuffs can bend the Plexiglass and reach into the cockpit, and sitting too close to the dashboard can render airbags more dangerous and make officers more vulnerable to injury in a crash.
Mark Diaz, president of the Detroit Police Officers Association, received the complaints and reportedly said the vehicles would get safety updates addressing the issues. But Deadline Detroit reports that it checked some of the offending police cars and, as of the last few days, they hadn't been updated.
European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
