That's good because the 2V 4.6 is not up to it...
If ever a car screamed for a 5.4 Boss or S/C 5.0 it's the Crown Vic.
There was a really cool front done for a middle eastern version, like a
chrome Lattice Grille, that would make a nice addition to a modded CV.

You're the 3rd person so far that i know of that wants one....maybe we can use that to get a discount on the RHD conversion!

But yeah, will look into it further down the track, the EL is a money sponge right now

I guess it does, but as long as you don't spend every morning commuting in congested city traffic, it is a great highway car.

Yeah sure buddy, lets just hope they don't make an awful job out of the RHD conversion - I have seen many terrible ones in my time! Even Chrysler, such a big brand, kinda failed on their RHD conversion on the Grand Voyager for selling on European markets.

But what I say is - whatever you spend extra on fuel for the vic, you will save from maintenance no doubt.

@jpd80 That grill looks tasty, really like the look of it.

I knew I couldn't be the only person in Australia who wants a Crown Vic....
Lets try and get a three for one export and RHD conversion deal... ;)

Yeah gotta agree. But i guess if were paying heaps for a conversion it better be damn good.

Well my commute doesnt include traffic fortunatly So ill be sweet either way!

I've been driving my 2001 Police Interceptor since I bought it new in 2001. I've got almost 90,000 miles on it now.

In 2005 I added an AED supercharger. It uses an Eaton M90 6 psi blower. That low-end torque is great for the street!

I toured the St. Thomas Assembly Plant this past June. It was fun, but sad. A large group of us from http://www.crownvic.net went there. Check out the group picture on the front page of that site.
