I went and done it.

I've never bought a car sight-unseen or -undriven but in my very limited range I gave it a shot.

I'll post how the whole thing goes down. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you:

The U.S.S. Lincoln.

I hope you've already made appropriate plans to "pimp your ride."

My uncle had one of those, his was an 86, 87, or 88 model, can't recall right now, but he spent something like $200 on it for repairs over 100K+ miles, needless to say, he was pleased.

Rotflmao!!! After the neon ground effects and coffee can muffler I've planned 13 subwoofers with 1 tweeter. Great quality sound is important too.

Truth! I've owned 3 box Grand Marquis and two went over 200K without batting a - tranny?

(the 3rd I didn't like). MUCH more reliable than my current 97 Grand Marquis. Bulletproof and comfortable. Looking over the hood's like a Rolls. I'm really looking forward to it.
