HERE IS A VERY UNIQUE AND BEAUTIFUL AUTOMOBILE: IT IS UNIQUE BECAUSE IT HAS THE VINYL ROOF FACTORY DELETE!!  IT NEVER HAD ONE WHICH I BELIEVE MAKES IT CLASSICALLY BEAUTIFUL AND TOTALLY RUST FREE BECAUSE THE MAJORITY OF THE MARK V'S RUST BADLY UNDER THE OPERA WINDOWS AND GENERALLY UNDER THE WHOLE VINYL ROOF.IT ALSO HAS SOME OF THE RARE OPTIONAL ITEMS SUCH AS THE CB RADIO, GARAGE DOOR OPENER ON THE VISOR, LUMBAR SEAT CONTROL,MILES TO EMPTY GUAGE WHICH WORKS,AM/FM QUADRASONIC ELECTRONIC 8 TRACK RADIO WITH DEALER TAPE,  AND TRAILER TOW . IT DOES NOT HOWEVER HAVE THE MINIVENT WINDOWS OR MOONROOF OPTIONS.

I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR 15 YEARS, HAVING PURCHASED IT FROM THE SECOND OWNER WHO PURCHASED IT FROM HIS BUDDY WHEN IT WAS A COUPLE OF YEARS OLD. WHEN I BOUGHT IT, IT HAD BEEN INSIDE STORAGE FOR 11 YEARS. EVERYTHING WAS DOUBLE COVERED! MATS ON TOP OF MATS AND BLANKETS ON TOP OF BLANKETS OVER THE SEATS AND IN THE TRUNK. SO ALL OF THE SEATS, CARPETS AND TRUNK ARE PRISTINE. IT HAS OF COURSE ALWAYS BEEN GARAGED SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT. IT WAS PURCHASED NEW HERE IN CALIFORNIA.

HERE ARE A FEW MORE BITS OF INFORMATION FOR YOU: I PUT IN A FACTORY NOS PRESS MOULDED ORIGINAL HOOD PAD A FEW YEARS AGO WHICH IS EXTREMELY RARE AND STILL LOOKS NEW. I HAD THE DOUBLE STRIPE TIRES MADE TO ORDER AND THERE IS A FACTORY SPARE TO MATCH IN THE TRUNK. I DID THE BRAKES AND CALIPERS AND THEY WERE DETAILED AT THE TIME. THE WHOLE BOTTOM OF THE CAR WAS NEVER UNDERCOATED AND IS PRISTINE WITH NO RUST!. I HAVE DETAILED MOST OF IT, BUT PROBABLY NEEDS A DAY TO FRESHEN IT UP. I DID NOT UNERCOAT OR PAINT ANYTHING BLACK ON THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR. THE REAR ENDS AND GAS TANKS ON THESE CARS WERE NATURAL!!!!! NOT PAINTED!!!!!!!!!

THE PAINT IS THE ORIGINAL FACTORY APPLIED PAINT IN PERFECT CONDITION. THERE ARE NO DINGS , DENTS OR PIMPLES. THE HAND PAINTED DARK RED STRIPE FROM THE FACTORY IS PERFECT. ALL OF THE DIE CAST IS ORIGINAL , WITH NO PITTING AND NO CRAZING. BOTH FRONT AND REAR BUMPERS AND GUARDS WERE TRIPLE PLATED SHOW CHROMED. 2 OF THE WHEEL MOULDINGS HAD A COUPLE OF DINGS, SO I HAD THEM STRAIGHTENED, POLISHED AND RE-ANODIZED. HOWEVER THOSE TWO MADE THE OTHERS LOOK LIKE THEY WERE CRAZED, SO I HAD THEM ALL DOME AND THEY ARE GORGEOUS!  I ALSO PUT IN A BRAND NEW MOTORCRAFT BATTERY.

THIS CAR ALWAYS DID 96-98 POINTS BY THE LCOC (LINCOLN AND CONTINENTAL OWNER'S CLUB). IT WILL NOW START BACK AS A BEGINNER AND THE NEW BUYER SHOULD DO WELL.

I AM NOW AGE 73 AND HAVE A LOT OF MEDICAL PROBLEMS. I CANNOT DO MY CAR THING ANY LONGER. MY LOSS IS YOUR GAIN. YOU WILL LOVE THIS CAR! IT IS THE BEST MARK V I HAVE EVER OWNED, AND I'VE OWNED QUITE A LOT OF THEM

Ford to add Android Auto and CarPlay to 2016 SYNC 3 cars via update

Fri, May 19 2017

Ford 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

Honda poised for growth, Detroit to hold steady, Car Wars study says

Fri, Jun 5 2015

The automotive industry is expected to keep booming in the US over the next several years, but the train might start running out of steam in the long term, according to 2015's Car Wars report from Bank of America Merrill Lynch analyst John Murphy. The forecast focuses on changes between the 2016 and 2019 model years, and the latest trends appear similar in some cases to the past predictions. Sales are expected to keep growing and reach a peak of 20 million in 2018, according to the Detroit Free Press. The expansion is projected to come from a quick pace of vehicle launches, with an average of 48 introductions a year – 26 percent more than in 1996. Crossovers are expected to make up a third of these, maintaining their strong popularity. However, Murphy predicts a decline, as well. By 2025, total sales could fall to around 15 million units. As of May 2015, the seasonally adjusted annual rate for this year stands at 17.71 million. Like last year, Honda is predicted to be a big winner in the future thanks to products like the next-gen Civic. "Honda should be the biggest market share gainer," Murphy said when presenting the report, according to Free Press. Meanwhile, in a situation similar to Car Wars from 2012, a lack of many new vehicles is expected to cause a drop for Hyundai, Kia, and Nissan. Based on this forecast, Ford, General Motors, and FCA US will all generally maintain market share for the coming years. The report does make some future product predictions, though. The next Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra might come in 2019, which is earlier than expected. Also, Lincoln could get a Mustang-based coupe for 2017, a compact sedan for 2018 and an Explorer-based model in 2019, according to the Free Press.

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.
