Used 1997 Mercury Grand Marquis Sedan Consumer Reviews
Great Quanity, Desire more quality.
Roominess for peole and luggage is the greatest feature. The seats are not as comfortable as in the '93 Grand Marquis. The engine runs well at 110,000, but several suspension parts needed replacement. Usually I do not need that type of repair. My Camry (with independent suspension) seems smoother on the highway and requires less maintenance.
Entry and exit is poor
Some how the designers forgot that people get into and out of the car. If you have older people then this car is not for you. Although is is a large car it is very hard to get into and out of if you are elderly. The car, however is excellent in every other way.
Great Car - No regrets
I bought this car as a "winter beater" but it is immaculate and a fantastic riding car. It performed admirably this past winter in NW PA. I just took a 220 mile trip and got 26.7 mpg - AWESOME for a car this size with a V8. I've always loved the Grand Marquis - my parents had a 1984 LS and we retired it with 221,000 miles on it. I'm hoping for a repeat performance with mine!

Car is a joy to drive, however I am in assisted living and no longer can drive
97 Mercury
this has been a wonderful car, I hate to sell it, but I have never kept a car 5 years. I do not use a car hard ( 78 year old widow) and I have had regular service. It never needed more. I had one parking lot accident, fender damaged.
