I love that car and think the styling is striking, but admit that its styling is what doomed it. It kind of looks like a Japansese Grand Marquis.
Its not the first car to have a great, yet unpopular, look imo.

Kumainu: I think you would find the driving experience in an M45 a little more stimulating than in a Camry.
QUIKAG, I have a Grand Marquis. My wife drives it. Nice cruiser. But there is simply NO comparison. The M handles FAR better, is MUCH quicker, looks WAY better (imho), has MUCH more content, rides better, has much better build quality...I could go on and on. Its like saying the Lotus Elise is like an English Hummer2 only lighter and better handling.
(BTW, in spite of all that I think a 2 year old low mieage Grand Marquis is a STEAL and a decent over-the-road transportation appliance.)

Well glad I wasn't the only one. I will admit that sometimes the cars that many don't like I dig and I'm always way into the European counterparts that we don't get here in the states like say an English CTR.
This M in Black or Grey with rims looks pimp man, and it looks way more than it costs. I found sweet low mileage ones for 20 even.
