2003 Ford Crown Victoria Review Summaries

What reviewers liked most about the Ford Crown Victoria:

Unchanged are the large interiors, huge trunks, and double five-star crash-survivability ratings awarded by NHTSA.

-- Car and Driver

Despite its size, the two-ton Crown Victoria is no slouch in terms of acceleration thanks to its 4.6-liter V8 engine that pumps out 224 horsepower and 265 pound-feet of torque.

-- Edmunds.com

From a distance, its considerable rear overhang marks it as a sedan of the past, but as you approach, you realize that its basic shape is still a pleasant thing, and Ford has kept it that way with just the right nips and tucks.

-- New Car Test Drive

Ford Crown Victoria Comparisons:

Ford's full-size, rear-wheel-drive V8 sedan shares its design with Mercury's Grand Marquis, though Crown Vic has no counterpart to the high-performance Mercury Marauder.
