Expert 2007 Ford Crown Victoria review

our expert's take
Our expert's take
By Steven Cole Smith
Full article
our expert's take


Last year, an Oklahoma writer named John Hiner wrote a book called The Car I Couldn’t Wear Out. That car: A 2003 Ford Crown Victoria had, at the time, 465,015 miles. He replaced a wheel bearing at 110,000 miles, but never even changed the spark plugs.

I don’t know if Hiner needs a new Crown Victoria, but if he does, he’d best act now. Some Ford dealers have a handful of 2007 Crown Victorias left, and others are already sold out. There will be no more.

Not for us civilians, at least: Ford will still market a basic Crown Victoria to police and taxicab fleets. And Mercury will continue to sell the Crown Vic’s cousin, the Grand Marquis, for another year or so. But with the end of this model year, there will be no more retail Crown Vics. Ford is so anxious to distance itself from the Crown Victoria’s decades of service that the company has already broomed the car from its official consumer Web site.

All this makes me a little sad. The Crown Victoria is a legitimate dinosaur, a soon-to-be-missing link connected to the way they used to build cars: V-8 engine up front, driving the wheels in the back, big four-door body bolted to a separate frame.

Essentially unchanged since its last major redesign — in 1992! — the 2007 Crown Victoria is, nonetheless, updated with some moderately recent technology. The LX test car had traction control, power adjustable pedals and side airbags, all options. The price: $30,860. But suffice to say you could do a whole lot better than that.

Under the hood is the 4.6-liter, 224-horsepower V-8. Feel free to go looking for one of those high-powered Crown Victoria Police Interceptor models, but they only have 239 horsepower, 11 fewer than a Kia minivan.

But the good news is that when your V-8 is pumping out only 224 horses, it’s so understressed that these engines tend to run for, well, a long time. The four-speed automatic transmission shifts grudgingly — this whole car feels as if it’s ready for a siesta. The energy it’s conserving translates into mediocre fuel mileage, an EPA-rated 17 miles per gallon city, 25 mpg highway, and regular is fine, thanks. This engine would probably run on lighter fluid. It does, in fact, run on E85 ethanol.

The Crown Victoria LX’s suspension is built for comfort. Drive too fast into a corner and you get substantial body roll, punctuated with squeals from the 16-inch radial tires. But on the highway, this is a pretty comfortable car, though the rigid rear axle tends to be alarmed by potholes.

There are, of course, much more technologically up-to-date big cars, but I respect the single-minded honesty of this big beast — it’s built to go, and go, and go, and now that it’s almost gone, I’ll miss it.

  • 196,000k miles and counting

    Bought a 2007 cvpi from an online auction , was originally a Columbus Ohio airport police car with 5000-5500+ hours on the engine and 100,000 or so miles . Still runs like a top. Just hit 196,000 miles the other day. Major repairs have been replacing fuel pump, front end tie rods, and a control arm replacement. This car was made for police so it has an enhanced steering system and reliability and level of safety not found with most civilian cars. This engine is so well made I once drove for around 10,000 miles without an oil change, and went into a oil change shop to get it changed and they said it looked fine, they didn't even change the oil after that. Most miles I ever got was 25 MPG going 60 on the highway with cruise control. I drive 110 miles a day now driving 70-80 and burn about 5-6 gallons a day. Huge car plenty of room. Giant trunk. The white paint never last with these cars. No biggie, that's why you can get good deals on them

  • I've never owned a vehicle this reliable.

    For a huge car, it's very nimble, handles very nicely and predictable, winter driving requires winter tires and weight in trunk if you have the police interceptor, which has a more aggressive rear wheel drive system due to the limited slip differential . I've had mines since 2013, here I am in 2020 only about $1500 in repairs since I first bought it. Not too expensive to have repairs done, really havent had any major issues with it. It rides very smooth yet firm, I cant see myself owning any other type of car ever, honestly, unless I become a millionaire. Your good to it, itll be good to you.

  • AN AMERICAN ICON

    i have owned many ford crown victorias over the years 3 1993s 2 2006s 1 2008 and 4 2011s not only is it the most iconic police car in american history it's actually a great family car it drive smoothly has a great suspention system and it's really comfortable on those long vacation drives it also comes in handy when it's time to take the pets to the vet but it's the smile on your face and the overall feeling of owning one that makes it worth every penny it's a shame nowadays that they are slowly becoming retired from police departments these cars take beatings and still ask for more i currently own my 4th 2011 ford crown victoria fully restored fully detailed and was a 1 owner car it's really an amazing car and a true stapled icon of our great country KUDOS to my fellow FCV owners and to those who are lucky enough to score one GOOD LUCK AND GOOD CHOICE

  • The most crash worthy vehicle I have ever driven..

    The Crown Victoria was the best police vehicle “hands down” and saved many officers lives. I drove a new one every year! They were road ready.

  • This is one of the most reliable cars I've ever ow

    This is a great car I would highly recommend it but be careful when you are buying one like the old police package can tend to have more wear than the traditional Crown Victoria LX but the interceptors are really good if you find one that has been treated well

  • Most reliable car I've owned.

    This car meets all my needs. Handles great. Very reliable. Very comfortable. I have owned this vehicle for 10 years and have had no issues just regular maintenance. It is showing minor wear a tear on the interior but still looks great.
