Summary
We liked the Grand Marquis LS, finding it somewhat comparable to a Lincoln sedan but at a lower price. It also compared very favorably to the Chevrolet Caprice Classic LS. The two models we tested were very close in price: The Caprice was slightly more expensive but offered ABS as standard and an optional 5.7-liter V8 with sport suspension.There were some things we liked better on the Grand Marquis, though, such as the transmission and the interior. And its exterior has been modified Just enough to make things interesting, while maintaining the traditional feel that has made the Grand Marquis a success for two decades.
