The 2003 Ford Crown Victoria is part of the long-respected line of full-size sedans from Ford. Two trims were available: the base Crown Victoria and the more luxurious Crown Victoria LX. Both editions are powered by a robust 4.6-liter V8 engine delivering 224 horsepower, coupled to a four-speed automatic transmission. The LX Sport trim offered later in the year, brings with it a raised power limit of 235HP. The Crown Victoria is distinguished by a traditional body-on-frame construction, offering a smooth sedan ride and rear-wheel drive. It offered considerable cabin space, a sizeable trunk, and comfortable accommodation for up to six occupants. Classic features included power windows, tilt steering, and air conditioning. Safety highlights included four-wheel disc brakes with anti-lock, dual front airbags, and an crash severity sensor system. Its infotainment system, although lacking modern amenities, was well-executed for its time.
