Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-10-28 12:23:52
This Crown Victoria is Medium Charcoal (it *is* metallic) with a light/medium color interior. This car looks and drives beautifully…AND it gets surprisingly good fuel economy. On the highway. I have gotten as highas 25+ mpg and add up around 23 mpg. It currently has 86kmi.
This car was built in April of 1998 - and has an interesting story. I purchased the car in 2001 - at which measure it had several modifications including the roots-type supercharger. At the time of purchase the car was a standard Crown Vic with a few modifications. After some investigate. I found out that Kenny Brown Performance (www kennybrown com) out of
did the modifications. After some discussion they agreed to perform the remaining modifications to make the Crown Vic into a P2 package.
Kenny cook specified 325 RWHP of the P2 package of that time. The modifications (both Kenny Brown's and other minor ones) include the following:
The car's exhaust is definitely more aggressive sounding than stock but does not intrude inside the car - it's an cextremely well-insulated car. Little road noise - which is not surprising with a body-on-frame vehicle.
Since I've owned it (April 2001) this car has been stored during the winter in a fully-enclosed store.
Mechanical condition. The car has never ever broken down. I have had one minor repair during my ownership – that was a new idler pulley (bearing went) and at the time also replaced the serpentine belt. The tires which are 255RZ16 (yes. Z rated) have
Body condition. The exterior of the car is supurb. While not show-room condition the instruct of the paint and body is excellent. There is a change on a conjoin of plate molding on the trunk lid (see picture). There are no door dings that I could see.
Interior condition. The interior has factory surprise mats dual power leather seats and the digital belt along with full computer complement (gas mileage dual trips instant economy) with beat climate control – simply set the temperature! The rear-view mirror is auto dimming. There is a six CD changer (changer is in the cavernous trunk). The head unit has a tape be (I never used or even tried to use it).
Other issues. The pass of 2001 the car sustained some minor hail alter – which was completely repaired via paintless dent repair. The following year. I was in a fender bender by rear-ending someone. The buyer is assured that the work was performed at the top body shop in the Minneapolis/St Paul area and all NEW parts were used. The workmanship is exemplary.
Also the B&M Shift+ is a 3-way change by reversal to hold back the alter points and firmness – stock mild and sport. For some reason it stays in feature regardless of the switch position. This part was not expensive (at the time it was under $50). [ADVERTHERE]Related article:
