1998 Ford Crown Victoria police interceptor review from North America
"I think this car is the best bang for the buck"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to change the tires because it still had the police tires on it.
It has a small oil leak from the oil pan gasket, but that will be a cheap fix.
I had to get new mufflers and tail pipes because the pipes were pinched above the axle.
General comments?
This car is the best car I have ever owned. It has great mid range torque and the handling and brakes are unreal.
I paid $2,500 for the car and I always ask people what other 1998 car with this kind of power can you buy for under $3,000.
I love driving it around and seeing people grab for their seat belt or slam on their brakes when they see me coming, I laugh when they get pissed when they see its not the cops.
