The overview
A classic highway cruiser, the rear-wheel-drive Grand Marquis is built on a full frame and is powered by a 4.6-liter V8. A compliant ride, a huge trunk, and substantial trailer-towing capability are its major advantages. Handling is fairly clumsy and the steering feels light. The front seat is a bench. The rear seat is not as roomy as you might expect in a car of this size. For 2001, the Grand Marquis picked up more power and optional adjustable pedals. 2003 brought a pseudo-sporty version called Marauder, which was quicker but felt little different from the regular model.

Behind the data
Latest source update: September 11, 2026
Vehicle summaries, specifications, pricing and ratings come from Consumer Reports vehicle records. Auto Guide groups these records by model and reported generation start year.
Available years are listed explicitly. Gaps do not imply that a model was discontinued. Prices are source estimates, not live offers. No first-hand road test by Auto Guide is claimed.
