You are bidding on this really sharp 1998 Lincoln Town Car MarkVIII. It has high miles, but the only affect this has on the vehicle is it gets you the car you have been wanting for a nice summer drive for a lot cheaper than what they usually go for. This thing has a lot of life left in it. It functions perfectly. Mechanically this car is really sound. It starts right up and can drive across the country if you need it to. These vehicles are designed to last and perform. This car suggests premium gasoline, so it does not gets surprisingly great Gas Mileage. I drove this from Cincinnati to Columbus Ohio for less than $40 in Gas. Let me explain how this car ended up in my possesion... My uncle owns a used car lot. I am a member of his dealership and like to sell cars on the side for a little bit of supplemental income. I have access to dealer only auctions and that's where I get these vehicles. I purchased this car from Manheim Cincinnati. I had absolutely no trouble with the vehicle driving the distance. This is probably because I only buy cars that are "Auction Guaranteed" This is in reference to the powertrain of the vehicle. (engine and transmission). I really enjoy road trips, so I would be willing to drive this car to the winning bidder for a fee a lot less than what it costs to ship vehicles these days. I got this for me to simply flip. I got a good deal and am willing to sell it cheap. I simply just want to sell it and sell it without reserve. hopefully someone can enjoy it for what it is. a very cheap but reliable classic that is discontinued. You never see these on the road. You can tell it has mechanically been well taken care of. Everything works, but The A/C blows warm air. However; the first thing I did was have my Mechanic look it over and change the oil check fluids etc etc. The tires look to be with good life left on them, but I would do an alignment and rotation, because there is a slightly annoying shake at or around 55 mph. There are no signs of this being a smoker's car. Really this thing is ready to just be picked up and driven. Please keep in mind this is an 17 year old car that was clearly garage kept. When you think of this, you can actually feel very good how well the overall shape of the vehicle is. There are no gaps between fender and hood and such things (meaning no real evidence of any body damage in its life). The four rims sparkle and all match. There are not even minor blemishes on the body. The stereo is aftermarket and works perfectly. Actually has a cool design It has AUX and USB inputs. Please bid confidently. I have 100% feedback and try my best to describe the vehicles. Any specific questions I will gladly answer. call email or text 614-271-0330
There are a few points I have to disclose. 1.The driver's side door does not open from the outside. The door handle exists but a latch from the inside seems to be unhooked. 2. There is a tear in the driver's side visor. 3. The glove compartment is missing, the panel underneath the steering wheel is missing exposing the wires (nothing dangerous or unhooked, just an eye soar if you look down. 4. The chrome trimming around the ignition area is missing

Hyundai, Kia, Genesis and Subaru clean up in IIHS 2018 safety ratings
Thu, Dec 7 2017Hyundai, its partner Kia and its Genesis division are the big winners in the latest vehicle safety ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, accounting for six of the 15 models that earned the Top Safety Pick+ awards for 2018. Subaru was right behind with four, Mercedes-Benz had two, and Toyota, BMW and Ford each had one. Another 47 vehicles earned the Top Safety Pick designation, where Toyota had 10 vehicle models, with Hyundai recognized for nine models. All but one of the seven vehicles in Subaru's lineup, the BRZ, qualified for one of the awards. IIHS strengthened the criteria for the Top Safety Pick+ award for 2018 to require headlights to earn a "good" rating — an "acceptable" rating was previously enough to notch the "plus" award — and good or acceptable passenger-side protection in the small overlap front crash, which replicates a crash involving just the front corner of a vehicle. It also required vehicles to have acceptable or good headlights for the first time to earn a Top Safety Pick award. Most of winners for both awards qualified on the basis of optional upgrades. IIHS in October began evaluating the passenger side of vehicles in its small overlap front crash test after it said it became clear that automakers were neglecting that side of the vehicle as they focused on improving driver-side protections. IIHS first began conducting driver-side small overlap crashes in 2012. It began measuring both how well low and high beams illuminated the road and the amount of glare they produce for oncoming vehicles as part of its ratings in 2016. The Top Safety Pick+ winners are listed below. The list doesn't include any minivans, pickups or minicars, which don't appear on either list of awardees. Small cars Kia Forte Kia Soul Subaru Impreza (sedan and wagon) Subaru WRX Midsize cars Subaru Legacy Subaru Outback Toyota Camry Large luxury cars BMW 5 series Genesis G80 Genesis G90 Lincoln Continental Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan Midsize SUVs Hyundai Santa Fe Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Midsize luxury SUV Mercedes-Benz GLC The full list of Top Safety Pick winners is available here.Related Video: Image Credit: IIHS BMW Genesis Hyundai Kia Lincoln Subaru Toyota Safety Crossover SUV Wagon Sedan crash test
Lincoln MKX Concept goes for the gold in Beijing
Sun, 20 Apr 2014We've now seen the Lincoln MKX Concept in the metal, and we've shot it with the lenses of our own DSLR cameras. And we have to say, our opinion of the concept's design language has improved over our initial reaction. Yes, it's clear that this MKX shares its underpinnings with those of the Ford Edge Concept that we saw in LA, but the changes made by Lincoln stylists are a welcome departure from the angular lines of its corporate cousin from The Blue Oval.
We like the subtlety of the MKX Concept's front fascia, and the lighting elements both front and rear lend a luxurious quality to the crossover's typical two-box proportions. When combined with the smaller MKC that was shown in production form late last year, it's clear to see that Lincoln has a specific design direction that at least seems visually capable of setting it apart from the Ford models with which the brand shares its platforms. Here's hoping there are some Lincoln-specific upgrades underhood...
Have a look at our image gallery of live photos from Beijing above, reread the press release below, and feel free to let us know what you think.
Ford to add Android Auto and CarPlay to 2016 SYNC 3 cars via update
Fri, May 19 2017Ford is updating a large number of 2016 model year cars equipped with SYNC 3 infotainment software, adding Android Auto and CarPlay to the vehicles with a free, over-the-air update via Wi-Fi, or using either USB or going through their dealer. The upgrade will be available for around 800,000 vehicles in total, giving a huge number of Ford car owners the chance to get big infotainment improvements without having to buy a newer model car. The OTA update option is also a big step for Ford – it's the company's first for software ever, and it's one of the major reasons that Ford recently hired around 400 new mobile smartphone engineers, the company tells me. For CarPlay, users will still also need to upgrade their vehicle's USB hub to make this work (which will also incur a dealer visit and a cost), but for those on Android, all that's required is a simple software installation. The USB install method is also faster, but the Wi-Fi update option is the start of the company's efforts to really increase its OTA update program, which will be used for security improvements as well as infotainment bumps. Even with a dealer visit and hardware upgrade for CarPlay, this sounds like a worthwhile thing for 2016 vehicle owners to do. CarPlay and Android Auto are huge upgrades vs. most in-car software, offering navigation and entertainment options that follow you from your phone to your car. Retroactively offering this kind of thing to car owners is a definite change in tone for carmakers, since they typically use these kinds of things as incentives to get people interested in vehicle model updates. But as data becomes increasingly important to automakers as a business, it makes sense to encourage greater in-car use of devices.Written by Darrell Etherington for TechCrunchRelated Video: Auto News Ford Lincoln Technology Infotainment android
