That's a nice unit. Grand marquis is a working man's town car

I worked at Osman Lincoln Mercury in Melbourne Florida 2001-2003 and sold hundreds of these. GS, LS, Custom Tops you name it. It was and still is the best bang for the buck. many bought these over the new Town car because they did not like the rounded town car revamp at the time. Great times, great cars great people.

What is the reason that made them neglect the Panther platforms in terms of updating the engine, automatic transmission, an advanced suspension system, and some modern technologies, as Toyota did with the Lexus ls and Mercedes with the S and E-class and BMW 7-class, Audi and Infiniti??? Because it doesn't make sense for them to update the Ford Expedition, Explorer, Mustang, Taurus, F150, Focus, Mendeo, Continental, Edge, Fusion, and Ranger. And then they neglect the Panther platforms. It doesn't make sense for them to update all Ford cars except for the Crown Vic, Marquis, and Town Car. Why did they make these cars die? From 1991 - 2011 with the same 4.6L engine and transmission!!! Why did they kill the symbol of American sedans?

I love my Mercury Grand Marquis "Park Lane" Edition. I've bought 6 "Park Lane" Editions over the last 27 years. Always one "elderly" owner with low miles. Beautiful comfortable trouble-free cars. I love them.

Neil, I have a 2007 TownCar but I’m wondering what is the true difference between a Grand Marquis and a TownCar? My understanding it’s just some materials and a few features. In Canada, where I live…TownCars are getting more scarce and would consider a Grand Marquis if it’d run out of availability from TownCars.

Hey Anthony & Papa Bear, this Mercury in very nice & very well equipped!!! To me it's a junior Town Car & probably rides like one. It's priced right & I'm sure that it will sell quickly!!! Thanks for sharing this fun video!!! 👍👍🙂

Anthony, I am an old guy and love your videos. I traded in my 2004 Town Car about 5 years ago and have regretted it since. I have a neighbor who has a Grand Marquis, but it isn't nearly as nice as this one.

6 k not bad at all

It’s clean for sure…

You can buy a car from Anthony and know you've been told everything. Good deal. Sure do wish Ford woulda put a 5.8 in the Panther platform. But at least that 4.6 is dead reliable. Pretty hard to find a car that clean for 6k.

My Uncle used to visit Schilling Lincoln Mercury dealership in downtown Memphis TN and they had Mercurys and Lincolns in every unique way until they closed operations. They were the largest Lincoln Mercury dealership in the Southeast United States and all the new cars were on the second floor in the indoor lot behind the showroom.

Anthony , yes ,you are correct on model's being unique . I am an autophile .Back in 2000 , few people had monies to buy one of those units. They bought lots of GSs . Some did not nor were ready for digital anything. NICE car . You have teased me well. thanks Bill

What a beautiful car!!! Rare limited trim...they have the center arm rest storage!! Also the very rare for 2001 wooden steering wheel with the Redundant audio and climate controls...this steering wheel was a late availability option for 2001s LS trims...

The intake manifold gasket let go on my 97 Town Car two years ago. I use the car everyday for work, and mostly drive on the highway. I don't remember the exact mileage, but right now it has 135k miles on it. One of the best thing's about following your site is looking at all of car's you've sold over the year's.

I wish I I was a lot closer to you cause you have the best cars!

Hey Anthony, So glad that you finally got the title for this car after all this time. If I wasn’t in such a hurry to get another car, I would have waited for her. We won’t see another one like this one guys. I had the opportunity to see it a few weeks ago, and you will NOT find another one like this perfect unit. You’ll never see one like this again. They are getting more and more rare as time goes on. Now’s the time to invest in her!!

I love that Florida born car, love the color combination and that interior!! Keep up the great work Anthony and Papa Bear!!

Dude I want to do business with you. You are a salt of the Earth kind of person! Thank you for being you 🤠

If people were transparent like you are when selling a car people would have grand experiences. I watched this video with great interest. I have never heard of a Mercury Grand Marquis LS Limited. It must have been a special trim level. You are right it is loaded like a Lincoln Town Car. People do not realize the Grand Marquis has been like that for years. The car has a lot of features for the money. The only thing I did not like were the headlights. Those one headlight on each of the grille headlight designs on cars like this make me cringe because why would they put a economy car headlight design on cars like this. Town Car had it, and I can name many new cars that have it too. I like the headlight design on the 1993-1996 better. I like the wheels, the instrumentation panel, the seats, and the steering wheel controls. Thank you for sharing.

Great looking and great riding car!

Looks factory fresh to me.

The interior looks worn for 54K miles. Have you verified the mileage ?

Great lookin car! I've owned 3 of these & loved them

Love it!

One of the most beautiful cars I have owned and I still keep from 2005 until now Grand Marquis 98 Gold🌸❤️👍🏻

Im gonna keep an eye out on your upcoming town cars. I have one myself now my cousin and brother wants one

WOW! I can't stand Fords, but I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS CAR!

I love that color car, I actually had one in that color, it was a 2002, GS model and came with leather seats and the mercury emblem stitched on the front seats

Fantastic job. Very informative video 👌🏾

That interior is a much better design than the same year Town Car

Spray silicone spray around rubber window tracks and that window will fly up and down. P.s.a.- do not use wd-40 around window track because rubber becomes soft- degrades and binds up. I'm sure there is a billion videos on this subject but just adding my 2 cents.

Nice ride Anthony . Hello PA PA Bear 🐻

nice, if I needed another car this one would be it!

You are really a genius. Everyone could have a Panther FoMoCo model....

I want a trunk rack for my MGM so bad

Beautiful car

No Kidding - you have a Limited package!? Extra rare. It's close to fully optioned, but not 100%. Like you said, missing the HPP package. Limited model just had Special floor mats, stitching on the leather, and armrests that open. Some dry silicone (key) spray from 3M on the window track would help that window out. A DIY guy could easily take care of some of the quibbles with ease. Excellent canvas if someone wants to take it to the next level.

Really like that car. I know you're a big lincoln guy, but I think this is a really nice car. This year of Marquis has in my opinion the nicest grill. I love that grill way nicer then newer models.

Nice looking car. Great price

A little trick on the slow windows. Put a little wd-40 on the tracks! (on the felt grooves) Works every time!

Beautiful ride..i.owned an 01...definitely change the plastic intake ..doesn't matter how you drive...they will definitely crack with time

Being a hasty person isn’t always a good thing. I passed up on this beautiful Mercury because I wanted another car yesterday. You won’t find another one like this one. Don’t make the same mistake that I did. Grab it before it’s gone. For short money, you’ll be driving this gorgeous Mercury for many years to come!!

I'll take it!

Those climate control thumb wheels wear out. I replaced one on my Marauder. I had another climate control unit and just replaced it. It could be the blower control module too....Don't get an after market one either.......

Two years ago, bought an 03 LS with a little over 100K miles from a retiring coworker. it's white with the same cloth top, but in navy blue. I don't have the digital instrument cluster, the BBS style wheels, nor do i have the wooden steering wheel. everything else, however, is the same. I picked it up for $1000, as a starter car for my newly licensed son. He had to pry the keys from me because the car rides so comfortably. Oh, I almost forgot to mention how rock-solid reliable it's been.

I recently purchased a 2005 Grand Marquis with only 50,000 original miles

A nice Grand Marquis! I'm not a huge fan of that color top, if it had a black top (like my 95 Cartier had) it would be better. I do like the olive color of the paint. The dash reminds me of the 95-97 Town Cars which I always liked. That car should sell pretty quick!!

Loved this car EXCEPT luggage rack. Had to keep myself from making offer. Love the panther platform. I was a bowtie until I die kinda guy, but my wife insisted on a grand marquis about 10 years ago and fell in love with these cars! Unfortunately, a huge deer put an unceremoniously end to that car. But I bought a 99 crown vic in 2013 with extremely low one owner miles and drive daily 75 miles to work. Currently it has 172,000 miles on it and drives like a champion. I am keeping my eye on a Lincoln town car from you that spent its low mile life in da south and hope to make a deal with you. About how much can I expect to pay to have it shipped to marlow, ok?

I'm very interested in this car, if you have any other like this please let me know.

Nice ride looking to replace my 1992 signature town car that was totaled had only 56,000 miles on it.. you wouldn't have any in your inventory would you?

Dude this car is from by me! That place is in commack. I wanna bring it back home to Long Island. Do you know if it lived on LI it's whole life?

Hey Anthony, I know you mess with alot of Lincolns! You have any radios off of 97 youd get rid of?

Where do you buy your white wall tires? I have an '02 Grand Marquis with the Michelin Symmetry tires and I need to replace them but I want white walls and I can't find them.

Btw...what does the badging say on the cloth top behind each of the rear doors

😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

Looks like a great car. Oil change isn’t a time issue or expense. Drive it after immediately doing a Lube oil and filter . Do the ball joints and shocks in a short month or so , and this should give many years of service . No worries on no air suspension; it’s less to get repaired later. If it handles right then great but sway bars can be added. It’s not a race car , just a high quality family sedan. Good looking grampa car .
