Delete the side bulge which makes it look like a pregnant weasel and replace the "Ford" engine with the 300 hp 4.6. After all, you don't see a Chevy powered Caddie. Giving the TC more running ability may just prevent it from being caught by an oversexed Weasel.

I am tempted to ask when and why you have observed pregnant weasels, but some things it is just best not to know....

were part of our college lab experiments as were frogs, rabbits, cats, mice, rats, & other rodents. Now you know and don't you feel better for it? Non science majors usually just take Chem 101 or Bact 210 and get by with a BA.

Thanks. I do feel better now. And I feel better knowing the Panther cars are going to be around a bit longer, even though I do love my Ford Five Hundred with AWD. Wonder if the Panther will ever get AWD?

the 500 looks to be a nice car; the only rap on it is that they say it's underpowered. do you feel that thats an accurate statement?

Does anybody have any pics of the redone 06' Crown Vic or Grand Marquis. I am particularly interested in the LX Sport.

Crown Victoria SVT by lexusrocks

Ford should seriously consider building an SVT Crown Victoria with at least 300hp. If they don't Ford will lose the large performance sedan market to the new Cadillac STS, Dodge Charger, Chrylser 300C and the new Chevrolet Impala. If the Australians can get the really cool Ford Falcon, why can't we get a Ford sport sedan? Ford should also incorporate more technology, such as a nav system in the new model. If they can do this, the Crown Victoria could become Ford's most desirbale model. At the same time all this happening, I also feel the Ford Five Hundred needs a new engine, preferably one with at least 250hp.

Been on a 2000 mile trip + with the Five Hundred.
 
Anyway, the car could definitely use a bit more power. Then again, I averaged over 30 mpg on the trip, with AWD nonetheless....
 
So, even I am conflicted! I love the CVT. Feel free to join us over at the Five Hundred forum here...

Yeah, Ford also fells the same. And that's why the new Duratec 3.5L engine will be added to the 500 next year.
 
I also think that the CV needs a boost to compete with the others on the market. The need to improve the powertrain, the interior, and a few other minor stuff.
