My new 2002 GS Conv is second to 95. NO BETTER VALUE. Interesting to see changes over years, adding anti-lock brakes, driver's power lumbar, cornering lamps, keyless entry (part of conv group and includes moveable pedals), bigger battery, improved AC, front reading lamps, but removed illuminated front door "lamp reflectors" (side of door when you open door, replaced by reflectors), reduced gas tank (21 to 19), deleted trunk toplid carpeting and glove compartment damper (it just falls now, instead of a soft opening), return of locking gas lid (95 had it, but eliminated through 01 and returned in 02), removal of a separate trunk key and locking trunk remote release.
Not an LS, But An LSE

I have an LSE, which was available in 2002; bucket seats, center console, 235 hp engine, dual exhaust, handling suspension and 3.27 rear end gearing. Had a 94 Grand Marquis that was so bulletproof, I bought another Grand Marquis. This one has been flawless as well, other than the driver's door speaker needs replaced or tightened. Starts, runs, and drives without any complaints. The car is much quicker and handles better than the 94, but the exhaust is noisier, the ride is firmer, and the steering much less isolated from the road. Not sure which I prefer, but the basic goodness is still there.
Wish my Dad could have enjoyed this car

I can't say enough good things about this beautiful car. I bought mine in February 2009 with only 56,000 miles on it and lots of garage time, so it is immaculate. What a pleasure to drive. Mine is the LS with the billboard size digital dashboard readings and all the bells and whistles. Though it is seven years old, everything works perfectly. Never and oil leak or a squeek or a squak. The ride will nearly put ya' to sleep. My worst MPG is 21.6 mpg and my best is 25.8. Nuttin' wrong with that. Love this car, and just wish Daddy could have seen it, as he loved Mercs! This is my first one after owning Dodges, Buicks, Olds, and Pontiacs.
Cushy gas hog has issues

We were so excited to get into this buttery ride only to have our Marquis buzz killed when the fuel pump went out at 47,000 miles after only having it a month & one 400 mile trip under our belts. Another surprise was the terrible city mileage, much lower than the stated 17 mpg, around 10 mpg. Highway ok w/25 mpg. As I've seen mentioned I have to agree the lack of a center console leaves one stuffing everything into the paltry pockets given in the front seats or on the floor. So despite the wonderful smooth ride the overall economy leaves me wishing we'd shelled out for a Camry etc. PS.Loaner car during fuel pump was a Sable '05. It was a gas hog also (15mph?!). Ford/Mercury needs to wake up
Value for the Dollar

After much shopping around looking at comparitable cars, I chose the Grand Marquis because of its size, V8 engine, and rear wheel drive. This car was thousands cheaper than comparable cars with the same equipment and platform. The car has plenty of smooth, quiet power coupled with a turnpike ride that suits my tastes. While it doesn't shine in fuel economy, it still gets much better milage than a 64 Dodge Dart I had with a 273 V8. Overall; I think the Grand Marquies and the Ford Crown Victoria are two of the best values for full size cars in todays market.
