“Retired interceptor with 17 service records and no accidents, priced $1,037 under CARFAX’s own listing.”

Analysis

The Crown Victoria Police Interceptor is the cockroach of American sedans: body-on-frame, 4.6L V8, parts everywhere, and a reputation for outliving its owners. This 2010 wears white, sits on the steel wheels with trim rings, and is the actual car in the listing photos.

Ask is $8,491 at 94,005 miles. CARFAX lists this exact Fort Wayne car at $9,528 with no accidents reported and 17 service records — the dealer asks $1,037 under CARFAX’s own number. Comps: $9,999 for a 73,323-mile car, $8,949 in Albuquerque, $6,995–$4,100 for 175k-mile cars, and private-party cars at $2,650–$5,500.

It’s a retired cop car, so expect idle hours and a spartan interior. But with 17 service records, no accidents, and a price under CARFAX’s listing for the same VIN, this is the right way to buy the legend.
