How comes the Mercury Grand Marquis looks like the Lincoln Town car?
how comes it looks similar to the lincoln town car, and which one do u prefer? i personally prefer the lincon, but then again the mercury is also a nice car aswell, so would say they are both good as each other A: Many vehicles are built from the same platform as a means of cost savings in research and development. This is certainly the case with the Ford Crown Victoria, Mercury Grand Marquis, and Lincoln Town Car. The difference is based primarily in trim levels. The nicer you want it, the more you pay. That goes for the brand of vehicle as well. The Mercury is seen as being more upscale than the Ford, and the Lincoln is the top dog of the three. The one you choose is based upon personal preference and your pocketbook.
