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.

  I like the key pad door locks - 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By KitGerhart - July 26 - 12:26 am

  Im a "snow bird" and leave this car in Florida year round and drive another car back and forth from Indiana. The Grand Marquis has been reliable so far, and is comfortable. The steering feels kind of numb, but the handling is ok for such a big tank, helped by the handling package on my car. Considering the size of the car and my many short trips, it gets decent gas mileage, 17-18 ave. I get 25 on the highway, better than most 6 cylinder SUVs.

  My 3rd Grand Marquis! - 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By Rob Hepler - April 28 - 4:57 am

  For the money, its difficult to beat. Very reliable, comfortable, handles well, not bad on gas, and repairs/parts are affordable. I highly recommend them.

  buy used! - 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis
  By aguywhoiswritingthis - April 16 - 10:00 am

  Compared to 1992 it replaced it has better construction quality, I think. But, worse ride, (still very good) more unattractive, smaller gas tank,(a mere 350 mile range) and an oddly shaped, although still large trunk.

  excellent ls - 2000 Mercury Grand Marquis
  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
