2001 mercury grand marquis review this car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale. Live simply, live well. introductionthe grand marquis is surely the most conservative car on the planet. We don't mean conservative politically, but in just about every other nuance of the word, from the engineering that went into the car to the lifestyle and attitude it projects. Grand marquis is about living well, frugally. grand marquis is one of the last surviving rear-wheel-drive, v8-powered full-size cars built on a separate frame. Its ostensible competitors, buick lesabre, chrysler concorde, pontiac bonneville, and toyota avalon, are all more modern in concept, with front-wheel drive, v6 engines, shorter wheelbases, and unitbody construction. Both are powered by a 4. 6-liter v8 coupled to a 4-speed automatic overdrive transmission. ls adds luxury equipment, including a premium stereo, premium cloth upholstery, power lumbar support, an illuminated keyless entry system, chrome wheel covers, a light group, and pinstripes. Gs and ls models are sold with a slightly higher level of standard equipment, and at slightly higher prices, in california and hawaii than in the other 48 states. mercury has re-tuned the grand marquis engine for 2001. It now produces more peak horsepower, and delivers its peak torque at higher rpm. In standard, single-exhaust form, that translates to 220 horsepower at 4750 rpm, and 265 pound-feet of torque at 4000 rpm. With dual exhausts, which are optional on gs and standard on ls, those numbers rise to 235 horsepower and 275 pound-feet of torque. option packages have been streamlined, which simplifies life for everyone. The premium package is available separately for $1,120 and includes alloy wheels, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, electronic climate control, a power passenger seat, an auto-dimming mirror with compass, and power-adjustable pedals. The adjustable pedals are a new feature for 2001, and can also be ordered by themselves for $120. (they are standard on the ls in hawaii and california.) the anti-lock brake system is also available as a stand-alone option for $600. We highly recommend it as it allows the driver to maintain steering control during emergency braking maneuvers. The traction control uses the anti-lock brake system to reduce wheel spin -- a big benefit when accelerating on slippery roads. walkaroundgrand marquis a big, roomy car. It boasts a curb weight over 3900 pounds, a 114-inch wheelbase and an overall length of 212 inches. The grand marquis retains that big-car feel many of us grew up with. The interior is spacious, with plenty of room for long legs, broad shoulders and gangly arms, and it will comfortably seat six adults. The grand marquis provides more front and rear headroom than a buick lesabre. despite the car's size, there's enough fore-aft seat adjustment to accommodate the petite. One minor annoyance: the hump running down the center of the floor for the driveshaft reduces foot space for anyone sitting in the center. It is the single largest drawback in the grand marquis' rear-drive design. rear-seat roominess and comfort are at the top of the class. Trunk capacity is rated at nearly 21 cubic feet. Fit and finish inside the car are superb, and the choice of materials is excellent. all controls and instruments are arrayed in a logical, intuitive, and spacious manner; nothing seems out of place. For 2001, the traction control switch has moved to a more logical location on the dashboard. also new for 2001 is mercury's personal safety system, which senses the severity of a crash and deploys the air bag with the appropriate force. driving impressionthe grand marquis' 4. 6-liter single overhead-cam v8 is one of the best engines ford has ever built in terms of quality and durability. It is smooth and quiet, yet delivers strong acceleration with plenty of power for quick passing. It features a coil-on-plug ignition system that is simple and reliable. Thanks largely to its strong v8, grand marquis is rated to tow 2000 pounds. the transmission delivers smooth, precise, quick shifts. It is stable at high speeds and in crosswinds. Better yet, with the suspension alterations made in 1999, this is the best-handling big mercury we've ever driven. Mercury engineers refined the grand marquis in 1999 to produce a car that rides and handles better than its predecessor. The rear trailing arms were redesigned and relocated to provide better control of vertical wheel motions. A three-piece watt's link was added; it provides more precise lateral location than would be possible with the single-piece panhard rod or track bar usually used in live-axle setups. the car does float over undulating pavement, though not at uncomfortable levels. The steering is a bit light at higher speeds, but the power assist makes it easy to maneuver the big car in crowded parking lots. braking performance is surprisingly good for such a large car. The brakes were enlarged and upgraded for 1999 as well, with larger, thicker rotors and dual-piston calipers on the front discs. Those changes improved braking performance and reduced the chance of brake fade when descending steep mountain grades. Steel 16-inch wheels are standard, while aluminum alloy wheels are optional. An optional handling package 855) includes a completely retuned suspension with rear air springs and a larger rear stabilizer bar, plus a quicker 3. 55:1 axle ratio, special 16-inch alloy wheels and goodyear high-performance tires. On gs models, the handling package also includes the dual-exhaust engine. The handling package sharpens cornering response and improves acceleration. At the same time, it doesn't degrade the ride quality. summarymercury's grand marquis is a wonderful sedan for covering a lot of territory on wide-open north american highways.
