Short answer: Not a good first car Great Project/fun car
Long Answer:
These cars are heavy on gas in stop & go driving and due to age require a lot of initial prep work & checking to keep you from having unexpected problems.
If you are okay with that then they are awesome slab of a car & are fun as hell.
It's not fast, but its torquey. Insanely roomy & comfy, feels like you're driving a goddamn tank.
With a decent set of springs, shocks and tires it's actually a good handling car for it's size.
If you can get a carbed one with a 351 it has a much better powerband & has way more potential if you want to have fun with it than the 302 does.
I had an 86 Crown Vic as a dd back in 2010 & it was an awesome car, but ultimately the transmission shat out due to me driving like an asshole & the car was rusting to pieces after just a few years.
So if you plan on keeping it, make sure you oilspray the fucker every year otherwise road salt will eat that car alive at a pretty quick rate.

If you can't enjoy an old American land barge for what it Is, you're either a soyboi faggot, or you've never had the pleasure of driving long distance in one.
Nobody here is claiming they're something that they're not.
They're slow, big, and hard on fuel compared to a new shitbox, it doesn't mean they can't be enjoyed. Anything vintage or antique has character. Unlike any normiebox you could go finance

>$2595 Let me guess. It's an old man's car who kept it in a garage and thinks its worth alot because its clean and well taken care of. I'll bet the left turn signal has been on since he left the dealer's lot.

This thread is still here? I paid the same for my 85 GrandMarquis with 60 k miles 25 years ago. This is not what you want for your first car.
I liked it as a car but can't recommend today.

First panic brake stop, every brake hose is going to crap itself. and then after they're replaced, the rear brake cylinders will crap themselves.
