2000 Mercury Grand Marquis “the silver couch”
About the 1998–2011 Mercury Grand Marquis
from the generation archive
The Aero Panther Grand Marquis (1998-2011) proves it's far more than a fleet sedan — owners here are running autocross courses marked by orange cones, sporting racing numbers like 251 and 431, and building custom interiors with gauges and racing stripes. From a clean gold 2000 Grand Marquis with chrome accents and a black lower lip popped open on the grass to these full-blooded Panther platforms carving through cone courses at speed, this generation hub captures a community that takes these big-body sedans seriously.
The story
I bought this silver GS model in 2009 with 27,474 miles. This is my second panther replacing my 1997 dark toreador red LS. The mods so far are Eaton Detroit stock ride height heavy duty coil springs front and rear, Addco's front and rear sway bar package and 17 inch Crown Vic Sport wheels with Falcon ZE 512 tiresand after market centercaps so my merc doesnt say ford were you can easily see it. — pantherdriver2000
