I like how them old school Grand Marquis are so similar to the LTD Crown Victorias in every way (have an '89 LX), only slightly more luxurious. Beautiful, great condition Mercury.
Really nice car. These looked so much better with the optional formal brougham roof which you have. I remember looking at this exact model on the dealer lot and wanting either a Light Titanium or Dark Titanium LS. This was the best color.
@@paulparoma That roof was optional on the Grand Marquis beginning around 1982 and Ford later made it available on the Crown Victoria a year or so later. I would estimate that one quarter or less of the production of both Fords and Mercurys had this option. It's a shame because I think the car looks so much better with it. The treatment includes an extra cap that is welded into the rear window opening which extends the roofline a little bit, makes the C-pillar fatter and more upright, and makes the rear window more upright and smaller.
@@AlexanderCrump Oh, I see what you mean. Yes, that was certainly optional and not often seen. My '86 Grand Marquis had it, and I've always liked that more-formal look.
@@borisratnik9032 Was Cinnabar more of a pink metallic? I remember it. I also liked some '80s sedans without the vinyl roof. I always wanted a Cadillac de Ville without the vinyl top but those were pretty rare. Same with the Electra and Ninety-Eight. I think it was standard on all boxy Town Cars.
By the way, your car is Beautiful, that color Titanium, the clothes, etc. They bring back fabulous memories, hearing that engine purr is fantasy music. Congratulations.
I was fortunate to be able to purchase in January of this year a 1989 Mercury Grand Marquis LS 50th Anniversary Edition one of only 250 built with this trim package in dark blue metallic with full blue carriage roof and gold exterior trim and trunk lid luggage rack in showroom condition with only 67,000.0 miles. I am the second owner and it is the most comfortable car I have ever owned.
I've had well over 30 cars and none of them could ever match the joy and comfort of this grand marquis. Boy did the leather seats heat up in the summer though 😅
Thank you very much. I recently purchased a 1997 Thunderbird with 80k miles and a 4.6 V8. It drives better than a Mustang due to the IRS rear end which i will be restoring due to sun damage in the paint.
@@ze_german2921 last year of that style too I think! That or 98 was… I almost had a 97 thunderbird lx fully loaded for my first car it was nice. That was years ago but I do like them still
Hi Z_German, I live in Mexico and I want to soon acquire a Ford Mercury Gran Marquis Made in the USA like this one that you kindly show us or a Gran Torino, because I had one years ago and I love big cars. Could you tell me the price of your car to get an idea of its cost in the US. Thanks for your kind attention.
@@ze_german2921 the lights close to the front tires at the bottom work only when you click your turning signal. I can see them in this car since this trim is highest. They don't come with basic trim. Anyway, they're history now, no car maker have them.
They are called cornering lamps because they are intended to light the roadway in the direction of a turn. I doubt they were ever very useful, but I loved the look of them on higher-end luxury cars.
Thanks for sharing
I remember riding in this car when I was kid I thought it was so fly.
Nice car, I’m driving a ‘08 grand marquis and I’m looking forward to getting one of these oldies!

They make very nice Road Trip cars.
@@ze_german2921 And muscle cars, too, if modified correctly, since it has the 5.0L Windsor V8.
It's prounounced "Mar-KEE."

I believe the roof was standard on all models. A very nice feature.

Cinnabar Metallic for me, with NO vinyl roof. I wanted to MARRY that car . . . all I could afford was a Ford Festiva at the dealer across the street.

Gorgeous, I just got an 89, love it.
Congrats!

91 Grand Marquis I Remember These Body styles the Leather Seats looks Awesome
This was the best looking grand marquis Ford ever made.
I've had well over 30 cars and none of them could ever match the joy and comfort of this grand marquis. Boy did the leather seats heat up in the summer though 😅
Turn it volume up all the way when he touches the leather. Nice sound effects.

BEAUTIFUL CAR
These had luxury details some modern cars are just starting to have
Hermoso el Marqueton Compadre !!!!!!!!
I’d love to drive that !
Beutiful. Last year old that style

Hello! Where did you get this headlamps? What is correct brand for it?
Very nice.
what a beauty machine.
Bellissima......
🤩🤩
It is Grand Marquis, no "e" at the end and it is pronounced "mar-kee".
I just bought a 91, 35k original miles. In really good shape.
Very Nice! Did you get a good deal?
@@ze_german2921 $1,600
Have you sold it and how much did you sell it for where can I find one like this I am in California
I Haven't Seen this in a while
Beautiful car. It does seem though that everyone nowadays needs halogen lights, led lights, etc. I guess strong healthy eyes are a thing of the past.

What do you call the lights at the front bottom of the fender? The ones that turn on (steady ) when you click the turn signal?
I call them running lights, because they always run.

Super clean. Nice color. Have you sold it?
Yes I have
I can smell the interior just by looking at the video
Still for sale,?
how much did u get this for
Could you kindly swap out the chime in this Grand Marquis with one from a 1987-90 Chevy Caprice Classic?
Isoldthis beauty but I had a plan to install a LS5.3 Liter with Ford Valve Covers and a4L60E transmission. Ford AOD transmission are terrible.
Not sure if they are interchangeable. I think GM and Ford sourced these components differently and they have different pin arrangements.
@@ze_german2921 They were jerky and did not shift as smoothly as the GM TH200-4R.
Where can I buy a car like that
Raise the antenna, then tune the radio.
Where is the engine?
Que presio y lugar y millas
Price?
For sale?
Sold
Is this for sale
Im really intrested
Oh my gosh. That is what that thing between the rear seats were for an armrest. Not a value biggie slush. Lol.
