Used 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis Consumer Reviews
Ultimate Grand Marquis
This is an excellent automobile for the consumer looking for confort at an affordable price. The gas mileage is acceptable as it averages about 20 mpg on regular fuel and around 28 mpg on the highway. It has plenty of power for passing and driving in mountains. I personally prefer the rear wheel drive over frontwheel drive as it handles much better. The rear air suspension really smooths the ride. It is so quiet that the driver hears hardly any wind or road noise. The only thing I would change are the inside door handles. They should be chromed metal and not the hard plastic, after all this is the ultimate Grand Marquis. .

DOWSHIFTS ARE FAR TOO AGRESSIVE, AS COMPARED TO A 93 CHEVROLET LTZ
WOW!!
I went from an '85 Crown Vickie to this 2003 Grand Marquis LS Convenience. What a difference! The '03 handles like a car 1000 pounds lighter. The non-air suspension offered in this model offers just enough "road-feel" to make it fun to drive. Considering its' size, frontal area & mass, the fuel economy isn't bad!(22 MPG avg-mixed city/hiway, ~26 pure hiway) My heart sunk when I realized I had left the windows open one evening during a moderate rain, yet the leather wiped off perfectly. So far, it's about the BEST car overall, I've ever owned; I consider it a mini- Lincoln! Ford-this one's a keeper!
great value
You can't go wrong for the money.
