Every once in a while, you owe yourself a little indulgence. No matter the economic climate, your position in life or the price of tea in China, we owe ourselves a little bit of affordable luxury.....and this car has it in spades! A certainly popular and sought after car by the well heeled in 1973, this excellent example of the Lincoln Continental luxury 2 door still stands today as a testament to American pride, engineering and what we stood for back then. It is a well cared for luxury YACHT! Measure your garage before bidding on this behemoth because it is over 19' long and in return for that space will give you one of the best and most luxurious rides imaginable. This car was built back when Detroit still used REAL American STEEL! Powered by the venerable 460 cu In Ford Big Block V8, the only thing that deterred this car was the Oil Embargo of 1974....kind of like a meteor killing off the dinosaurs, this car just couldn't make it in the gas crunch 70's. 

Fortunately, it DID survive and here it is in great condition, well heeled and well cared for and ready to provide unending service to it's new owner/owners. This car features all of the power accessories one would expect and demand on a luxury ride. Power Steering, Power Brakes, Power Seat, Power Windows, Power Door Locks, Power Antenna, Power trunk release, PowerFUL engine...Power Power Power!

Factory supplied fender skirts accompany this car and are in great shape as well. They make this car look so long, sleek and classy that I doubt they have ever been off for very long...only long enough to add the "like new" Michelin White Wall radial tires that adorn this beauty. Factory hubcaps with great condition and no curb checks are still in place as well. The original jack, tire tool and a spare tire still reside in the spacious trunk. 

The original drivetrain is still in place including the 460 Cu In engine, C6HD Automatic Transmission and 2.75 geared Traction Lok rear axle. The engine HAS been converted to run on today's unleaded fuel.

This is a good car, plenty of past documentation and ownership history rides along with you in the glove box and you will smile and get big waves from passersby as you ride and guide this bastion of 70's luxury down to the Dairy Queen with the grand kids in the spacious backseat.

2015 Lincoln MKC priced from $33,995* [w/poll]

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

Looking to build on the momentum it struggled to establish with the MKZ, Lincoln recently unveiled the production version of its all-new MKC last month at the LA Auto Show. With a proven platform shared with the Ford Escape and striking design, the 2015 Lincoln MKC goes on sale next summer ready to take on the ever-expanding world of luxury compact crossovers. Breaking into this new segment, Lincoln has priced the MKC aggressively as one of the least-expensive offerings in its class, starting at $33,995 (*including destination charges).
At that price, the 2015 MKC costs a little bit more than a fully loaded 2014 Ford Escape Titanium and is just slightly less costly than the Acura RDX and Volvo XC60. More importantly, it's thousands less than Audi Q5, BMW X3 and Mercedes GLK-Class. The MKC will be offered in three trim levels for now - there is still no more information about Lincoln's new Black Label products - ranging from the base Premiere up to the range-topping Reserve.
The Premiere will come standard with features like active grille shutters, push-button start, remote start, dual-zone climate control and heated front seats, while the midgrade Select starts at $37,225 and adds upgraded 18-inch wheels, ambient lighting, daytime running lights and a steering wheel featuring Wollsdorf leather. The top-shelf Reserve trim level starts at $40,930 and brings even more luxury features including the panoramic roof, navigation, cooled front seats and wifi access.

GM design boss Welburn says Lincoln isn't a Cadillac rival [w/poll]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

General Motors Vice President of Global Design, Ed Welburn, had some dismissive words for a certain cross-town luxury brand during an interview with Car and Driver. When asked about his thoughts on Lincoln, Welburn deflected, before saying, "I don't consider Lincoln to be a competitor for Cadillac."
"They're not a global luxury brand. I don't consider them a competitor. Are they a competitor for Buick? Quite possibly. But not for Cadillac," GM's head designer explained. Welburn, who's been at the helm of GM Design North America since 2003 and is the first to hold the position of VP of Global Design, has been instrumental in the styling renaissance at GM, so predictably, Car and Driver's interview with him focused on the design aspect of cars.
During the interview, Welburn explicitly denied plans for a reborn Cadillac XLR, even as a new Chevrolet Corvette is hitting the market and strides are being made with Cadillac's V-Series performance arm saying, "We have a lot of cars that we're working on for the Cadillac brand. The XLR is not one of them right now."

2015 Lincoln Navigator ready to roll for $62,475*

Wed, 21 May 2014

Fancy picking up a refreshed Lincoln Navigator? Well, prepare to shell out at least $62,475. That's a whopping increase of $6,310 for the now-EcoBoost-equipped SUV.
That's just for the two-wheel-drive Select model, though. Want to drive all four wheels? Better have an extra $3,575 laying around. Snagging the top-of-the-line Reserve model, meanwhile, demands a premium of $7,500.
For those extra bills, you'll net Lincoln Drive Control, complete with continuously controlled dampers, power running boards, Ziricote wood interior trim, upgraded leather, 22-inch wheels, a "unique" interior headliner and, of course, a "Reserve" badge.
