PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS NOT A GRAND MARQUIS.. THIS IS A PARK LANE EDITION. PLEASE KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!
BUYERS, PLEASE NOTE: I HAVE JUST LOWERED THE PRICE OF THIS BEAUTIFUL CAR TO $5,495.- AND I HAD THIS CAR FOR SALE BEGINNING AT $7,295.00. I DID LOWER THE PRICE TO $6,200.- WHICH ACCORDING TO KELLY BLUE BOOK, A REGULAR GRAND MARQUIS WITH HIGHER MILES IS SUPPOSED TO SELL FOR $4,899.- TO $$5,200.- .. BUT,THIS IS THE FACTORY UPGRADED PARK LANE VERSION OF A GRAND MARQUIS, WHICH ACCORDING TO THE DEALERSHIP, IS AN ADD ON OF ABOUT $1,250.- $1,500.-, ON TOP OF THE HIGH RETAIL OF $5,500.- FOR A GRAND MARQUIS ONLY..
THIS IS THE PARK LANE ...WHICH ADDS UP TO $6.750.00 - $6,800.00, HIGH RETAIL FOR A CAR LIKE THIS WITH 64,200 MILES.
BUT NOW MY PRICE IS $ 5, 4 9 5. ----
THIS CAR IS 1 STEP BELOW THE LINCOLN TOWN-CAR, HAS THE SAME MOTOR ETC., AND THIS OPPORTUNITY ONLY COMES AROUND ONCE IN A BLUE MOON...
THEREFORE , I KNOW $5,495.- IS A VERY FAIR PRICE.... PLEASE, NO TIRE KICKERS, AND NO ALIBI IKE'S WANTED !!
I HAVE NOW PRICED THIS CAR TO SELL. IF ASKED TO GO MUCH LOWER, I'LL KEEP IT FOR MY SUNDAY CHURCH RIDE!
THE REASON IS BECAUSE YOU WILL NOT FIND ANOTHER WITH 64,000 ORIGINAL MILES IN THIS CONDITION, FOR THE SAME PRICE. GO TO THE DEALERSHIP AND SEE WHAT THEY ARE ASKING FOR A CAR IDENTICAL TO THIS.
USE YOUR COMMON SENSE. MY DAD PAID $13,000 FOR THIS CAR IN MAY/JUNE - 2005. NOW, MY PRICE IS LESS THAN HALF OF WHAT HE PAID, AND HE PUT LESS THAN 15,000 MILES ON THIS CAR FROM 2005 THRU 2010.
UP FOR SALE IS A 2000 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS LS/PARK LANE EDITION, WITH 64,200 ORIGINAL MILES, LEATHER INTERIOR, AIR-RIDE, KNEE DEEP IN NEW RUBBER TIRES, ALUMINUM ALLOY WHEELS, MINT INTERIOR/EXTERIOR, 4.6 LITER ENGINE, AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WITH "PRECISIONTRAC", TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM, DIGITAL AUTO CLIMATE CONTROL WITH ICE COLD A/C, DIGITAL DASHBOARD, AND WITH THE $1,200 - $1,500 DEALER INSTALLED PARK LANE EDITION PACKAGE, AND VERY WELL MAINTAINED BY MY DAD, MYSELF, AND THE LOCAL LINCOLN/MERCURY DEALERSHIP.

THIS CAR IS IMMACULATE!! PRISTINE !!! DURING SNOW STORMS, THIS CAR NEVER SAW THE SALT ROADWAYS...
AND I DOUBT THE BACK SEAT WAS EVER SAT IN. NOBODY HAS EVER SMOKED IN THIS CAR, AS MY DAD PROHIBITED SMOKING IN HIS CAR. AND YOU CAN CHECK THE ASHTRAYS AND SMELL THE INTERIOR FOR YOURSELF.
PERHAPS IF I TOLD YOU THAT MY DAD WAS A FORMER UNITED STATES NAVAL AVIATOR/PILOT, IT WOULD EXPLAIN ALL OF THE ABOVE, OR WHY HE WAS VERY FUSSY AND PARTICULAR ABOUT HIS CAR.
HONESTLY, I THINK IF A DEALER BOUGHT THIS CAR... HE WOULD NOT BE AFRAID TO PUT THIS CAR IN HIS SHOWROOM... OR KEEP IT HIMSELF! BECAUSE IT IS THAT NICE!!!
THIS CAR HAS NO EXCUSES, AND THEREFORE NEEDS NO APOLOGIES.
I CALLED A FEW LOCAL LINCOLN/FORD/MERCURY DEALERS IN AUGUST, 2012 AND ONE OF THE DEALERS HAD THE IDENTICAL VEHICLE WITH 54,000 MILES AND I WAS SHOCKED THAT HE WAS ASKING $9,800. I THOUGHT THAT WAS WAY TOO MUCH $$$$. BUT, YOU CAN BUY MINE WITH ONLY 64,000 ORIGINAL MILES FOR THOUSANDS LESS... AT $5,495.00, MY ASKING PRICE IS QUITE REASONABLE WHEN YOU COMPARE IT TO A DEALER'S PRICE FOR THE SAME CAR!!! SO WHY GO TO A DEALER AND PAY HIGH RETAIL, OR SPEND MORE OF YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY, WHEN I HAVE THE SAME AUTOMOBILE FOR MUCH LESS MONEY??? ESPECIALLY SO, WHEN YOU COMPARE CONDITION AND OPTIONS THAT THIS AUTOMOBILE HAS, I KNOW IT IS PRICED RIGHT !!!
NOW I HAVE LOWERED THE PRICE TO $5,495.00 . BLAMING THE ECONOMY IS NO ALIBI. BESIDES, THE STOCK MARKET IS BACK UP OVER 15,000!!!
OH YA.. I ALMOST FORGOT... TIRE KICKERS WILL SAY THAT THIS IS A BIG CAR AND GETS LOUSY GAS MILEAGE....
NOT TRUE!! THIS CAR HAS THE SMALLER V8, VERY DESIRED AND RELIABLE, 4.6 LITER, 281 CUBIC INCH, FUEL INJECTED MOTOR, AND GETS BETWEEN 22 - 24 AVG. HIGHWAY MPG!!!
SURE... THIS IS NOT A 30 MPG CAR... BUT, THIS CAR WAS BUILT FOR COMFORT AND TOURING... SO YOU WILL GET THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS!!!
THIS CAR IS PERFECT FOR A FAMILY VEHICLE.... OR CAB COMPANY'S .. OR THOSE WHO ARE TRANSPORTERS WHO WANT TO ADD A FRONT-LINE VEHICLE TO YOUR BUSINESS.
THIS CAR CAN BE YOURS SIMPLY BY CALLING MY CELL # 978-884-4312, BETWEEN 9 AM AND 9 PM , EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK, AND MAKING AN APPOINTMENT TO VIEW THE CAR.... THANK YOU.
PS: PREFER "CAR DEALERS" NOT BID OR CALL, BECAUSE PAST EXPERIENCE HAS PROVEN DEALERS WANT SOMETHING AS NICE AS THIS CAR FOR AS NEXT TO NOTHING AS POSSIBLE. NO THANK YOU. I DON'T NEED A DEALER TO BE MY PARTNER, OR SHOW ME HOW TO SELL A CAR, OR ADVERTISE IT ON EBAY. THANK YOU.
THIS CAR IS FOR SALE LOCALLY, AND I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS AUCTION AT ANYTIME.

NHTSA upgrades Ford floor mat unintended acceleration probe
Mon, 17 Dec 2012According to a Bloomberg report, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has upgraded an investigation into complaints of unintended acceleration lodged against Ford vehicles. The investigation began in June of 2010 when just three complaints had been received and it only concerned the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan, but this was at a time when the phrase "unintended acceleration" made grown men go pale. With 49 additional complaints received since then, the investigation has been reclassified as an engineering analysis - the last phase before a recall - and it has been expanded to include the Lincoln MKZ, making for a total of "around 480,000" units affected between the three sedans from the 2008 to 2010 model years.
The ostensible cause is that floor mats are trapping the accelerator pedal, but according to a Ford statement at the time, the entrapment is due to owners placing the optional all-weather floor mats, or aftermarket floor mats, on top of the car's standard floor mats. NHTSA has backed up that assessment, pinning the blame on "unsecured or double stacked floor mats."
On the face of it, it would appear that NHTSA has upgraded the status not because of Ford's error, but owner error, and Ford has stated publicly that it is "disappointed" in NHTSA's move. On top of NHTSA still being skittish after that other unintended acceleration debacle, it could be seen to be taking its time investigating all of the variables: it's reported that Ford changed its accelerator pedal design in 2010, a "heel blocker" in the floorpan has been considered a potential culprit in how the floor mats could be trapping the pedal, some drivers have said the floor mats weren't anywhere near the pedal, and according to a report in the LA Times, in "a letter sent by Ford to NHTSA in August 2010, the automaker said it found three injuries and one fatality that 'may have resulted from the alleged defect.'"
Ford announces bevy of recalls, 2 of which are recalls on recalls
Tue, 04 Nov 2014
Ford has announced five separate recalls, affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
It's not been a great couple of weeks for Ford. On October 30, the company announced a 205,000-unit recall, and yesterday, it was revealed that the Ford brand's year-over-year sales were down over 5,000 units while the company itself was down 3,000 units over through October. Now, the company has announced five separate recalls affecting 202,000 vehicles built between 2005 and 2014.
Junkyard Gem: 1993 Mercury Topaz GS Sedan
Sat, Aug 13 2022As long as the Mercury brand existed — a period spanning the 1939 through 2011 model years — nearly every Mercury sold in the United States was more or less a redecorated Ford model. The Torino had its Montego sibling, the Crown Victoria had the Grand Marquis, the Cougar was based on everything from the Mustang to the Mondeo, and so on. Naturally, when the folks in Dearborn developed the Ford Tempo compact, a Mercury version had to be created. This was the Topaz, with the official launch of both cars taking place on the deck of the aircraft carrier often referred to as the USS Decrepit. You can't make this stuff up! The Tempo/Topaz, also known as the Tempaz, has largely faded from our collective automotive memory by now, since it broke no significant new engineering or styling ground (this story would be much different if Ford had only put the amazing straight-eight "T-Drive" Tempaz powertrain into production) and didn't have any endearing features other than being a cheap domestic competitor to the Toyota Corolla and Nissan Sentra. Still, close to 3 million Tempazes left North American Ford and Lincoln-Mercury showrooms during the 1984-1994 period. As you'd expect, most of these disposable cars disappeared from both the street and the car graveyard long ago. It takes a very special Tempaz for me to break out my camera while I'm patrolling my local wrecking yards; generally, this means an ultra-rare all-wheel-drive version or at least a very early model in super-clean condition. Today's Junkyard Gem is neither, but I took one look at this spectacular Bordello Red crypto-velour-and-slippery-plastic interior and recognized that this was no ordinary junkyard Mercury. It appears that Mercury had dropped the idea of clever names for base-grade seat fabrics by the time of the Topaz, referring to this stuff as just "cloth" in all the brochures I could find. That's too bad, because Mercurys had cool names for upholstery (e.g., Chromatex) in the old days. The interior is in very good condition but the steering wheel shows substantial wear, so I think this is a high-mile Topaz that got meticulous care from its owner or owners. Ford used five-digit odometers on these cars until the end of production, however, so we'll never know if this reading indicates 65,404 miles or 365,404 miles. The body is very straight, but there's some nasty corrosion behind the right front wheelwell.
