After all the kerfuffle trying to get the Town Car shipped to Raleigh in a hurry, we ended up getting to Carmax and getting a 2008 Mercury Grand Marquis instead.

The Lincoln is a fancier car, with a few more features, but for the same payments (actually slightly less), the Grand Marquis is 4 years newer and a more reliable buy, and very damn close indeed to the same car (thanks to the trickle-down of fancy features from old high-end cars to new mid-end cars).
