VALUE
Another one just like this one but with 92,000 miles that was located close to me just sold on Ebay 6 days ago for $5500.00 and it was not as nice.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
This is a very nice 2005 Crown Victoria that is completely stock with no aftermarket modifications and has not been beat up or raced to death like some of these models have. It is loaded with the usual power options including power windows, power drivers seat, and cruise control. Everything works properly and the air conditioning blows ice cold even in 100 degree weather which it was when we drove it the other day.
It also has the Police Interceptor High Performance option which is identified in the VIN by the digits "P71". It is a "Civilian" model which means it was not a Police pursuit vehicle. It is simply a luxurious Crown Victoria that was ordered with the high performance package. The differential gear ratio is 3.27. Information regarding the Police Interceptor option is posted further below.
It is an original Southern California automobile that has been well cared for and garaged when not being driven and has never been stored near the ocean or driven on salted roads etc, which accounts for the nice condition that the entire automobile is in. It runs and drives like new and is actually the fastest car in its class by far for 2005 and it will leave a standard Crown Victoria in the dust just in case you need to get somewhere in a hurry. It also handles and corners far better than a standard Crown Vic just in case you ever felt like entering it in a local Nascar race!
It has the original title and has never been transferred and it is NOT salvaged. It also has a clean Carfax/Autocheck report which I can email to anyone that is interested in seeing it.
CRUISE CONTROL
Most of these Crown Victoria Police Interceptor models DO NOT have cruise control like this one does, so if you want cruise control be sure to ask the seller if it has it, otherwise your right foot might get pretty tired on long trips.
FUEL ECONOMY
Contrary to what you may have heard, the Crown Victoria's with the Police Interceptor upgrade get slightly BETTER mileage than the ones without it if both vehicles are driven the same way. This is due to the dual exhaust and high flow air box and special ignition timing.
SERVICE HISTORY
It was inspected and serviced every 6 months regardless of mileage and it was just serviced which included fluid changes and suspension lubrication.
MANUALS
It has all the original manuals and safety cards which are in new condition. It also has the original plastic envelope they originally came in which has the Ford part number on it.
EMISSIONS TEST
It just easily passed the stringent California emissions test.
SAFETY WARNING LIGHTS
There are no lights on.
INTERIOR
It is light gray cloth almost like a short velour and is in xlnt condition. There are no holes or other wear marks on the seats. There are a couple very small and fairly light marks which may easily clean off although I have not tried yet because they are not bad enough to bother me. The headliner looks like new. The dash and door panels are very nice and are not faded or scratched up. The steering wheel is like new with no wear and is not dried out from being exposed to the sun. It has brand new original factory carpeted floor mats from Ford.
As can be seen in the photos, the carpet is in xlnt condition even in the drivers area which gets the most use. It had floor mats in it since it was new. I just replaced the original floor mats with the exact same brand new original ones from Ford.
There is absolutely zero wear on the brake pedal and accelerator pedal which means the mileage was mostly highway and not much stop and go traffic.
BODY
There are 2 or 3 tiny thumb sized dings on it which are barely noticeable which a paintless dent person could remove but they aren't bad enough to remove in my opinion and might not even show up in a close up photo. There is zero rust and it has never been driven on salted roads or stored near the ocean where the salt air could corrode it. There are no waves or ripples in sides of the body and I posted side angle photos to show how straight it is. The white reflection in these photos is a white fence.
UNDERCARRIAGE
As can be seen in the close up photos, the undercarriage is also very clean and not caked up with mud or oil or road grime etc and there isn't even any surface rust on the bottom side. All I did was wipe down the floor pan with quick detailer to remove the dust before I took the photo.
PAINT
All the paint is original and it has an excellent shine and there is zero peeling, lifting, or heavy fading. There are a few small scratches on the bumpers but no gouges in them, and there are a few extremely small chips mainly on the left rear door, but nothing big enough to detract from the general appearance as you can see in the photos.
There is some light checking (which looks like tiny scratches) in the paint on the hood which is typically from engine heat because these cars do not use a hood insulator pad, however, you have to be within 5 feet of the hood to even see them and even then you have to intentionally be looking for them to notice them. Most of these cars have these faint marks in the hood paint but most people won't tell you about it so it might be best to ask.
The door jambs are very clean as can be seen in the photos.
Overall, the paint still looks very nice, especially for being black and 12 years old.
TIRES
They are the high performance 225/60/16 Goodyear Eagle RS-A models which are V rated for 150 mph. They have around 40% life left. If you ever need tires for any vehicle, Walmart has the best prices of anyone.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT
It is absolutely spotless with no grease or oil or dirt etc and looks like it nearly just rolled off the showroom floor. Nothing under the hood has been repainted to try and make it look better. There are no leaks and all the factory decals are still there and still look like new. The plating on all the hardware is still in good condition.
It also still has the large factory plastic engine cover which seems to be missing on some of these so look at the engine photos of any other Crown Victoria's you might be interested in to see if it has this. If any don't have it, I would ask if any other parts might be missing.
The engine compartment is easily nice enough for local shows if you ever wanted to take it to one and display the engine etc.
P71 POLICE INTERCEPTOR OPTION INFORMATION
My apologies for the long post but I thought it would be helpful for those that are not familiar with what the P71 Police Interceptor option means/is so I will just mention the major differences.
In general, it has more power and far quicker acceleration than the standard Crown Vic's which is partially due to the different gear ratio they have. It also has handles and corners far better than a standard Crown Victoria, plus it is built to take excessive abuse and will therefore outlast a standard model by a fair margin. The Crown Victoria's have been known to typically go over 350,000 miles with just basic routine maintenance are are used as Taxis in many areas because they run for so many miles.
REINFORCED FRAME - Not available on any other model.
DUAL EXHAUST - This is available on other models, however, it is very uncommon, plus the dual exhaust on other models has resonators to quiet the exhaust and these reduce power slightly . This system on other models is made from standard steel which will eventually rust out. The Police Interceptor system does not have resonators, plus, it is made from stainless steel so it will basically never go bad.
HIGH OUTPUT ALTERNATOR - Not available on other models. It puts out a whopping 130 amps at idle and 200 peak amps.
ENGINE OIL COOLER - Not available on other models. This cooler increases the life of the oil and the life of the engine.
TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER - Not available on other models. This cooler increases the life of the oil and the life of the transmission.
POWER STEERING COOLER - Not available as an option on the base model.
ALUMINUM DRIVESHAFT - Not available on other models. This increases the acceleration rate and top speed slightly.
TOP SPEED LIMITER - This is set to 135 mph. It is set to only 106 on all other models.
HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTER PROGRAM - Not available on other models. This provides more horsepower and slightly later and firmer transmission shifts.
TRANSMISSION - Upgraded parts not available on standard model.
DIFFERENTIAL RATIO - Both 3.27 and 3.55 were available for the Police Interceptor. Standard Crown Vic's have 2.80 and other ratios are not available for them.
ENGINE POWER - 250 HP @ 4900 RPM, 287 TQ @ 4100 RPM VS 224 HP @ 4800, 275 TQ @ 4000.
INSPECTION
I encourage people to see and drive the car before bidding so they can see first hand how nice it looks and drives and and I am available to show it most anytime.
