Crown Victoria is a timeless classic offering an abundance of room, a remarkably smooth ride, and

generous power that makes owning one a rewarding experience. For 2005, Crown Victoria carries on

this heritage of uncompromised value. Its exceptional blend of V8 power, solid body-on-frame construction,

rear-wheel drive, and ample seating for up to 6 creates a highly esteemed environment. Sometimes it’s

the little things in life that are most appreciated. And sometimes it’s the big things as well.

>You’ll find few vehicles accommodate you quite as well as Crown Victoria. Here’s an opulent place where

you can stretch out and relax. Not only does it present you with bountiful space, it also includes numerous

amenities to make your driving experience a most pleasurable one. From the 8-way power driver’s seat

and the available driver and right-front-passenger power lumbar supports to the distinctive woodgrain-

appearance trim, the luxurious touches will delight all your senses.

Don’t Just Get Comfortable. Luxuriate. You’re In Command

Command Center — The available digital electronic instrumentation is bright and easy to read. And the available leather-wrapped steering wheel features secondary audio and climate controls.

Face The Music

AM/FM Stereo/Single-CD/Cassette Player — This available in-dash stereo produces crisp, clear sound and comes standard on LX Sport.

Fine-Tune Your Ride Comfort

Power-Adjustable Pedals — Now your driving comfort needn’t be compromised. These available pedals adjust back and forth to accommodate short and tall drivers alike.

>Behind the wheel of Crown Victoria LX Sport, you’re in total command. Driving enthusiasts will take pleasure in the

smooth, even ride. They’ll also appreciate the clear analog instrumentation, center console shifter, and the leather-

wrapped steering wheel with speed control and secondary audio and climate controls. There’s something for

everyone — luxurious leather trim, Dual-Media audio, Electronic Automatic Temperature Control, and woodgrain and

chrome accents. An overhead console features a compass and map lights.

Reward The Driver In You. Look Tough

Dual Exhaust — Crown Victoria LX Sport comes with a dual exhaust, which gives it a performance appearance.

Put It In Storage

Center Console — Here’s a space to put all the important items you need close at hand — sunglasses, cell phone, wallet — it can handle them all. And the chrome-accented shifter is also right at your side to add a sporty feel to the LX Sport interior.

Heads Up

Overhead Console — The handy overhead console includes a compass as well as individual map lights.

Bright Ideas

Large Gauges — Bright and easy to read, LX Sport’s standard analog instrumentation will certainly appeal to the driver in you.

>Crown Victoria has a well-earned reputation for safety. Here’s a vehicle that’s been engineered to provide

true peace of mind. Among its many safety and security features are the Personal Safety System,TM which

includes driver and front-passenger airbags. Side-impact airbags and an Anti-lock Brake System are also

available. Crown Victoria has received a 5-Star rating for both the driver and right-front-passenger seating

positions and has earned this best-in-class rating 9 years in a row.* That’s the kind of protection you deserve.*1996–2004.

An Outstanding Level Of Safety. We Take Your Safety Personally

Personal Safety SystemTM — Within milliseconds of a front collision, sensors calculate the driver’s seat position relative to the steering wheel, measure the front passenger’s weight, recognize if safety belts are used, determine the severity of the crash, and then set the proper level of airbag inflation. This system, along with its pre-designed crumple zones, puts Crown Victoria at the forefront of safety performance.

A Luxury Drive

Rear-Wheel Drive — It’s one of the reasons Crown Victoria has such smooth, predictable handling in a wide range of driving conditions. It equalizes the work performed by each set of wheels, eliminates torque steer, and provides superior front-to-rear weight balance.

Not Slippery When Wet

Available All-Speed Traction Control — This improves traction on slippery or loose surfaces by using a combination of brake and/or engine control to reduce wheel spin. It’s nice to have on a slippery road, when pulling out from icy surfaces, and when accelerating while cornering.

The Strong, Sensitive Type

Speed-Sensitive, Variable-Assist, PowerRack-and-Pinion Steering — This system varies its level of steering assistance based on vehicle speed. When parking, it provides maximum assistance and makes turning the steering wheel easier. At higher speeds, it delivers less assistance for better road feel and more controlled response.

Solid Foundation

State-of-the-Art Hydroformed Frame Manufacturing — This process creates precision tolerances so frame sections can be tightly bonded to the machined-aluminum crossmember. The finished structure is extremely rigid and contributes to Crown Victoria’s legendary ride.
