Hi Everyone! I just bought a 2006 Crown Victoria P71 with 68,200 Miles, 436 Idle Hours, And 26xx total Ignition on hours. Im assuming its SAP? Its got cushy cloth seats with arm rests, Cup holder wasnt ripped out, Barely noticeable holes in dash that were filled, Last owner had super dark tint installed on back windows, and tad lighter on front windows. Ive only owned trucks and im glad to call this my first car.

Welcome from the Garden State.
Sounds like a nice, low mile, low hour CV

Welcome from PA
Try flickr for photos, pretty easy copy paste


Or get rid of the text after .jpg


Sweet car

Yay im not a total Idiot!Thank you Wags!Now i know why we have Noobie Sections

My two Babys

Thank you Joee! Its a really nice car, Im glad i bought it, I look under the hood and im proud, I look under the hood of a f150 and im like Who The Hell would own this? Its so nice to have a "car" that easy to work on

Welcome from Miami Beach and Astoria Queens!!

Looks awesome..Nice color..Nice find!!

Thanks Miami Dade! I didnt want the car at first because of the color, But as soon i saw how clean the car was i couldn't pass it up, Sad thing is though the car was victory white and previous owner had a crappy paint job on it, Its flaking in the passenger door well where the weatherstripping rubs against it, A flake or two on both bumpers and chipping above the outside door trim above the windows, Im afraid to take it to a car wash and have it become worse.

Welcome. Very nice looking Crown Victoria. The red paint looks nice, even if it's a repaint.

yeah, but if it was still white you would be very disappointed with how it flaked all off and was crappy looking, which is probably why the PO had it painted.



trust me, the crown vic is the closest car that comes to a truck. lol

Anyways, Vic looks great, did you put those wheels on there or did the PO? Welcome to CVN, post some interior shots.

Okay got some interior shots!

I love these Seats! Driver side is power while passenger is manual. And my ridiculous 12Ft Aux Cable, Now in its third vehicle.


You can Barely see holes on the passenger side of AC controls


So many of these fine automobiles had the cup holders ruthlessly ripped out, I always keep it in though as it has come to thoroughly know my knee cap on many occasions


Sexy..... I want a dash mat though


These seats are just... heaven, so soft and fuzzy lmao




Cobra CDR-840 Dash Cam and Whistler Cr-65 (JunK)


It even came with a pioneer Deck ready for my amp and Subs! All speakers are OEM ford, but sound great once a high pass filter is tuned right!

I placed them up so i can put my frozen pizza in and not damage my early hearing loss devices

How i used to have subs placed, but this gives you a view of the amp and what not, Not to shabby, But now the whole i can carry X amount of dead bodies in the trunk argument is now pointless



First thing i checked when i got in the car and started it (After turning on the A/C) At this point i was convinced, red paint job or not.





Sorry for the dark picture, this was mounted under the steering wheel kick panel facing the floor, took me forever to get a clear shot.


Not sure this front tint is legal, But im loving it, Its a must, PO had the same rear door tint on the back window, Windshield is the only piece without tint


And about that paint job....








Im so glad I have a P71 that looks like Grandmas Crown Victoria, No Spotlights, And the Wheel and Rims came with the car, They are factory Ford Rims.


The lack of a PI Badge is just icing on the cake, The LX Package (Futurama Joke/Reference) is the cherry on top. Enjoy guys! Please i want everyones 2c!!!

Sweet Vic and welcome!

very NICE !!

i've bought two from this seller before, recommended to me here on CVN by another member. His dash mats are of great quality, and fit perfectly.. generous price too

click on 2008 P73 in my sig to see a picture of it inside my '08.

Even with the paint flaws, the car looks like it was very well taken care of before you got it. Congrats on the car.

That is a nice dashmat! Very clean! Will definitely consider that next once im done with changing all my fluids.



Thank you!







Interior and exterior wise yes the car is great, wanting a CVPI i expected either the bucket seats, plastic hubcaps, spot light(s), pushbar or all of the above, I found this car while looking at a listing for a 2009 with 12,000mi Unknown Hours but they had sold it so i was like well ill look at this red p71 ive been ignoring for a few weeks, They didnt show any pictures of the interior on the website so i had no idea what i was in for.

Drivetrain wise is a different story, oil was darker than i wanted it to be, FoMoCo filter look like it had been on it awhile, called my stealership, last oil change was over a year ago wasnt smart enough to ask at what mileage, did find out that a steering wheel recall fix was done as well, Antifreeze was the color of light urine, Trans fluid was a little dark same for PS system, When i dropped my trans pan, the filter came with it while the grommet was stuck in the body, I didnt see that yellow plug looking thing so im assuming its been changed, And the rear diff was, putrid. Oh what a nightmare
