I have owned a Grand Marquis for 23 years and just purchased my 7th one, a 2009. The care still rides and handles very well and looks good. I was disappointed to find they have removed the compass, the automatic parking brake release and the Home Link.
Disapointed

We have a 2003 Crown Victoria that we have loved. We just bought a 2008 Grand Marquis with the new 17 inch wheels and I hate it. The car seems to have a mind of it's own when you are on the open highway. This is where the 2003 Crown Vic. is the most fun to drive but the 2008 Grand Marquis wants to drift all over the road. I think the problem may be that the front end is set up for the old 16 inch wheels and with the 17 inch wheels you are getting a wider bite of the road which causes it to want to drift. The high beams are also pretty useless. They do a great job of illuminating signs and trees but don't put much good adding light to the roadway. This may also be a 16" vs 17" setup issue.
Update after 3 yrs of use

I am updating my review from 3 yrs ago. The car is running great, it is still extremely comfortable but the paint is peeling off everywhere; very disappointing. It has already been repaired under warranty once and I will have to take it back to the dealer again for the same reason. It's really sad; such a beautiful car with such lousy workmanship. I hate to admit: I was wrong praising it.
Lov e my Grande Marquis

I currently own 2 Grande Marquis, a 1998 and a 2008 both of which I bought new. I have had no major problems with either. The 98 has 132,000 miles and the 08 62,000 miles. Both have been properly maintained. I had the front end rebuilt on the 98 and tires and batteries only. I do have electrical problems with the door locks. The 98 had an AC problem that cost over $500 to repair. I use Michelin tires and the ride is great. When I bought the 08, I decided I was not going to let the dealer shaft me. We negotiated the price. I then told them I had a Ford employee discount (my wife's brother), I owned another Ford product and received the Ford loyalty discount and since the 2009s were out I received an end of the year discount. I then surprised them by not having a trade in (they had already looked at my 98 and I did not tell them I was not going to trade it in. I then really surprised them when I said I would write a check for it. I received a chunk off the MSRP. and felt like I won. While they were assembling the paper work I was reading brochures on the coffee table and kind of liked the paint sealing system. They said it would cost $400. But what was attractive was they said I could bring it back each year on the anniversary and they would redo it for $99. I bought it. At the end of the year I brought it back and when I picked it up the total was $299. I loudly complained and the said the had to "detail" the car first. I said detail hell! it sits in the garage most of the time (we drive the 98) and has 4400 miles on it. They said it was company policy. They got me in the end and I will never patronize them again. As a side note I am a member of the local Sheriff Merit Board and to the man, the deputies, who are driving the newer police cars, said they wished they had their Crown Vics back even with the high mileage. I am 84 years old and I intend to keep both GMs and I do not intend to purchase bany more vehicles
