    Pair of Grand Marquis'

    If one is good, two has to be better. Right? That's what I tell my wife.
    New to this forum, but not to forums. Hopefully my signature works.
    The white one is the coveted unicorn LSE

      I just put those mustang rims on my Town Car. They look nice. I have a new take off set of the original fan blade rims for the LSE, I thought I would use them as winter rims on the Marauder then decided I could not run it in salt so never used the rims.

        I got the rims and new tires for $400. I still have the original LSE wheels and tires stacked and covered in my garage. Utah is also a salt state. I don't use these cars during the winter. They're covered and stored. I actually show these cars at my local community car shows during the summer. I did 9 shows this year.

          Welcome! Agreed that you have a really nice pair of Grand Marquis there.
          Signature shows up no problem and clearly you've been around panthers a while.

              Green one is number two, the white is number three. I had a 93 years ago, could never get the CEL to go out, so I ditched it.

              Green one is 2011-2012 Mustang GT/CS 19X8.5 wheels with 255/40 R19 Kumos
              White One is 2005 Mustang GT 17X8 Bullet with 245/50 R17 Off brand tires.

              Interiors are stock with no sagging headliners. The white LSE is an odd duck. Has an ungly brown interior. Not a fan! Both cars are under 100K miles.​​

                Nice Mercs.I like the wheels on the 03 LS. I have been to Utah a few times. Nice except during the summer. 80 mph speed limit though on the Interstate seems like that would do the cars in before any rust. One vehicle I rented was a Chevy Traverse with a 4 cyl. Coming up the mountains in southern Utah at the speed limit was a real chore.

                  Besides the speed limit, I can't stand the 15 freeway. Don't know why, just don't care for it. I'm not from Utah, I just live here. Job brought me here in 2002. I can't stand the heat or the snow. If I had it my way, I'd be out on the Oregon coast. Ugh!
