 ESSENTIALLY YOURS.

Rear-wheel drive, expansive room and V-8 power. These essentials

of a memorable road trip converge at one destination — the
2008 Mercury Grand Marquis. In GS, GSL (featuring 152.4 mm (6")
more rear-seat leg room), or LS trim, Mercury Grand Marquis
is perfectly suited to putting away long stretches of highway
with the cruise control on. Does there have to be a destination?

reputation for its full-size room, smooth ride and exceptional
level of comfort. Inside, the reasons are quite apparent. Six
adults can stretch out and relax in the lush, quiet cabin that is a
hallmark of Grand Marquis. A large trunk is spacious enough to

includes an AM/FM stereo/cassette with a single-CD player, gives
you the freedom to play cassettes or CD’s. Available Electronic
Automatic Temperature Control allows the driver and right-
front passenger to choose their own ideal temperature settings.
Underneath, the coil-over-shock setup of the front suspension
provides a quiet ride and crisp, sure handling.

stereo/cassette with a single-CD
player and 4 strategically placed
speakers is standard on all models.

 the power of 8.

Open road, blue skies, and the V-8 power of Mercury

Grand Marquis. For peak efficiency, just set it to “cruise”. With
its standard V-8 powerplant delivering 224 net horsepower
and 275 lb.‑ft. of net torque, Grand Marquis provides all the
muscle you’ll need for a trip across town or a cross-country
journey. For added stability, a power 4-wheel disc Anti-lock
Brake System (ABS) helps you maintain control during hard
or emergency braking, while the available All-Speed Traction
Control on Grand Marquis GS and LS models improves grip on
loose or slippery surfaces.

 SAFE AND SOUND.

When equipped with available front-seat side airbags, Mercury

Grand Marquis is the only vehicle in its class to receive the U.S.
government’s highest 5-Star crash test safety rating in all 5
categories — driver frontal impact, passenger frontal impact,
front-seat side impact, rear-seat side impact and rollover
resistance — an achievement it has garnered 4 years in a row
(2004-2007). Front and rear crumple zones absorb impact
forces and divert them away from occupants. Steel beams in
the side doors add structural stability, absorb energy, and help
reduce cabin intrusion in certain side impacts. And the Personal
Safety System® is always on guard. its sophisticated sensors
govern the deployment of the front airbags and the operation
of the safety belt pretensioners.

Standard on Grand Marquis LS and A standard 4-wheel disc Anti-lock

optional on GS and GSL models,
front-seat side airbags offer extra
chest protection for the driver and
right-front passenger in the event
of a side-impact collision.
Brake System (ABS) helps you
maintain control in adverse road
and weather conditions, while an
always-on-the-alert Tire Pressure
Monitoring System lets you know
if the pressure in any one tire falls
below a pre‑determined level.
