    Either someone did a VIN swap on that car, or someone went through a LOT of trouble to make a 2002 CVPI look like a 98/99. That car has 98/99 taillights, rear trim, front grille, bumper inserts, and 2001 and up CVPIs have PI motors. Your car also has the non-rolled rear wheel well lips, which was 98-00 only.

    If someone sold you that car as a 2002, you got duped.
    ------

    I'm aware of the civilian street package for the later cars. But he's got the amber turn signal in the lense, which was 98-99 only. He also said he has a non-PI car, which was pre-01. And, his car has the fat rear wheel well lips (like my car does) which was done away with for 01.
    All 01+ have PI engines, not just CVPI for those who may have read that wrong.

    Rolled rear fender lips were a 02<>03 change NOT 00<>01


    It is most likely a p74 - notice the keypad which was/is not available on Street Appearance Package p71s, and rarely seen on p73s

    Also, notice the rear package shelf has the child seat tether anchors - this lets you know immediately it is at minimum a 2000
    In addition, the car has the remote fuel filler door release, which became standard again for 2001


    This is the second time I've seen you jump all over someone about the year of their car with incorrect information, Sal.....



    And correct me if I am wrong but the GMQ does not share the same style tail lights as the Marauder...only the Crown Vic does right? The GMQ has smooth lights and the Crown vic has the ribbed action?
    Yes, the Marauder has tinted CV tailights (with Monochromatic trim, ala LX Sport)

    Great looking car.

    BTW, my '02 Sport had amber turn signals in the rear.

    Better also update your information source on taillights ... 2003 LX Sport came with amber in the turn signals. *Know for absolute certain.

    Well, I didn't mean to "jump" on the guy. Was just pointing out what I saw odd with the situation. For some reason I thought he converted a CVPI, not a standard issue CV.

    Most of the info on differences and such, I get from these forums and CV websites. I guess there's a lot of bad info out there.

    My apologies.

    I don't know how to decode a VIN but there is a P73 in there. I guess its rare because I do have a keypad. Great

    P73 would be a base model Crown Vic.

    I think it's: P71 - CVPI, P72 -fleet vehicle (available with some CVPI stuff), P73 - base CV, P74 - LX Sport.

    Of course if I am wrong, I am sure Drock will yell at me.

    P74 can be just the LX. P70 is the extended Commercial Heavy Duty (taxi). CVs for 2002 were kinda rare because they were only made for 1/2 a year.

    Interesting trivia: Did you know that P70 and P72 CVs in NY can get rear a/c?

    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.
