I bought an '86 crown victoria for less than one thousand dollars and it never ceases to amaze me. It's got a V8, a 5 liter engine, and over one hundred and fifty horse power. This car might be old but it can definitely kick some but. It has a great pick up.
I have ran into a couple of problems with this car including: windows not working, alternator not working, A/C not cold enough, and some little minor problems. But the car is 14 years old and it is bound to have some problems. I have had the car for about 2 years now and I have only brought it into the shop twice. Most of the problems that occur with this car are minor things that can be fixed without taking it to the shop. I love this car. It is a tank. I don't have to worry about dying in a car wreck in this car. You could probably run into a brick wall at 50 miles per hour and still walk away. It isn't hard at all to park, and it has a great suspension system. The speakers weren't too good though so I got them replaced, ad I put in a CD player. Other than that everything about my 'Vic is cool.
I love this car. I am going to keep it until I die or until it quits on me. I don't know which will come first.
It has tons of space also. Good for long distances.
