Overview & Reviews

The Marquis receives additional safety features, including an emergency trunk release, child seat-anchor brackets and Mercury's Belt Minder system. The interior gets a new trim color, Dark Charcoal. One new exterior color will be offered, Tropic Green. The handling package's rear-axle ratio changes from 3.27 to 3.55. The Grand Marquis Limited will be offered later in the 2000 model year.

• Classic American V8 and rear-drive layout, considerable interior space, lots of luxury for a reasonable price.

• Lack of refinement, squishy ride unless the optional handling package is ordered.

  2000 Grand Marquis LS - 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By Fred Nelson - September 2 - 8:13 am

  I bought this car used in 2003 and it had only 9,200 miles on it. It now has 100,000 miles on it. The actual repair costs have been less than $1,000. I get 21 MPG around town and 25 MPG on the highway at 70 MPH. Its, without question, the best car I ever owned. I cant understand why Ford is discontinuing manufacture of the Mercury line. I guess they are trying to force us into "golf cart" cars.

  By budnbarb - October 21 - 10:00 am

  the ls is a wonderful car to travel in for driving vacations,im averaging over 25mpg on my trips overall with a normal dashboard computer readout od 27 mpg at 70 mph on the interstate highways.the ride comfort usually puts the passengers to sleep on all but the shortest trips and the interior room is greater than expected.

  Slunk - 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By SLUNK - September 5 - 1:40 am

  I think this is one of the best cars ever made. I have had many cars over years, this is 1st one I have complete faith in running all the time. Comfort is grand and mileage is 23 to 25 hwy and 20 to 22 city for v8 that is outstanding. I have 120,000 and still hold mileage rate high. I would recommend anyone to buy this model and never look back.

  2000 Grand Marquis LS - HPP - 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By Marquis HPP - July 16 - 2:46 am

  Well as if the Grand Marquis GS or LS was not great already. They did build a few that was even better. The HPP (handling & performance package ). Most dont know about these because there is no marking on the cars. They came with bigger swaybars,beefed-up trans,bigger brakes,air-ride,digital dash, dual exhaust,3.55 gears, leather wrap steering wheel, lacey spoke wheels, speed sensative steering and rated at 29HP more than the regular GS or LS. They are faster than the P71 (police car) with a better ride than the Towncar. I have 92,000 miles on mine and only had to do the basics to it (tires, brakes, wipers a battery and the license plate light. Not bad for a 9 year old car! The HPP gets 17, 25 hwy

  Finest Car out there - 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By Michael J. Salter - September 16 - 6:30 am

  I am 16 almost 17, and this is my first car, and it is awesome. I am the only one at my high school that drives a Grand Marquis, and all my friends that drive Mustangs and foreign cars are just in awe of this car. For a car that weighs 5,237 lbs it does an excellent job. I normally gets 22-25 MPG around town, and 27-35 MPG on the highway. The ride is just as good if not better that a Cadillac, because it just floats down the road. And as far as performance and handling it does really good. It has a 16V 4.6L V8 that produces around 233 HP stock. And the traction control is rather nice on icy mornings, beacuse I just put it down in first gear and its like there is no ice. This is a great car!
