Looks like a Crown Vic or a Grand Marquis. |
◊ 2008-08-04 19:15 |
more likely a Crown Vic I think |
◊ 2008-08-05 02:32 |
I agree since it is a NYC taxi |

Why 'Panther' in chassis code? |
◊ 2008-08-05 11:03 |
It is the platform name, but that's not really its place indeed |
◊ 2008-08-06 05:14 |
I'll default to the first possible year, which is 1998 |

What would go in there? That's what the chassis is called... just like J for a Cavalier or GMT800 for a Silverado. |

There is a differece between the actually chassis code and the platform's nickname. "J" and "GMT800" really shouldn't be in there either. The same goes for "Fox" "Epsilon" "Delta" "N" "H" "W" and all those other ones. Please leave them out from now on For examples of real chassis codes that actually should go in there, there is 9C1 9C3 and 9C6 (for Caprice, Impala, Lumina, Malibu) and P70 P71 P72 and P74 (for Crown Victoria) -- Last edit: 2008-08-07 04:05:30 |

I think both platform and chassis code are usually interchangeable. Unless someone can narrow down to the chassis code, so be it, otherwise we can always use the platform name for generic names. |

But previously it was there and that was changed because it was just a kind of package/specs rather than a real model designation |
◊ 2008-08-07 22:47 |
What do you mean it was changed? There are still many models on the site with these designations. |
◊ 2008-08-07 23:38 |
I mean that it was in chassis code, but now it is just put as extra info (i.e. non clickable, not between brackets) like other trim levels. |
◊ 2008-08-08 05:26 |
Oh, I see yes |

I'll follow the rules and leave them out but do you think we can add a space for the platform? I think it is an important part of the vehicle's identity. |
