1985 Ford Crown Victoria review from North America
"A sleeper shocker"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing yet.
General comments?
REALLY impressed. This big ol boat actually outruns my Firebird (305, holley, flowmaster). Not by much, but imagine my shock when my wife started pulling away from me wih a big ol grin.
Fuel mileage sucks when launching.
Got it free in showroom condition. Kinda went hoo boy, but now really amazed. I drive it more than my Firebird.
