No Reserve - Rare Gold Mark V Diamond Jubilee, 92k, Not Cadillac Coupe Deville on 2040-cars
Putnam Valley, New York, United States
Rare 1979 Lincoln Mark V Diamond Jubilee Edition With NO RESERVE 460 V8, 92k original miles. Rare Diamond Jubilee with Jubilee Gold Moondust Metallic paint and Jubilee Gold Landau Vinyl Roof. This was the most expensive designer model available in 1978, there were only approximately 1800 produced. Options include quarter windows that lower and raise before main window, bronze tinted glass power moonroof with sliding shade, color matched aluminum "turbine" wheels, working 8-track and CB radio, digital "miles to empty" readout, tilt steering wheel, remote trunk release and automatic dimming headlights. Here's a couple of pages describing the features of the 78 Diamond Jubilee: http://automotivemileposts.com/mark51978diamondjubileegold.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_Continental_Mark_V#1978_.22Diamond_Jubilee_Edition.22 Mechanical: recent full exhaust system from the engine back including resonator (Lincoln is nice and quiet) new disc brake pads all around as well as front rotors, new alternator, new front end parts including ball joints, bushings and front and rear shocks as well as a set of new tires. The a/c has been retrofitted to modern freon, blows nice and cold. The cruise control works, the windows (small power vent and main) work perfectly, the passenger seat needs a new switch or motor, it does not move. The headlight doors work properly and do stay closed even after the car has not been started for weeks, the vacuum lines have been replaced (common issue, the lines that keep the headlight doors closed dry out). The Lincoln has always been obsessively maintained, anything that needed attention has always been addressed. The motor is quiet, the transmission shifts smoothly, no noises or leaks from anywhere. Cosmetics: the interior is overall in excellent condition, even the driver's seat does not show wear. The door panels, dash display, padded dashboard, headliner and visors are in very good condition. The top of the back seat where it meets the rear deck has some seams that are opening, otherwise the interior is near perfect. The vinyl quarter top has been replaced about a year ago, looks like new. The paint is original but still shines up well as seen in the pix. The underside is perfectly clean, does not even show surface rust. All floors and trunk solid under the carpet, the Lincoln has never been hit or had any kind of body repair and the chrome shines nicely, one small spot of bubbling on the passenger side where the vinyl top meets the fender as seen in the pic. Includes rare Lincoln garage door receiver, in matched gold color as seen in the pic. She's never been out in the winter, the Lincoln has always been a "Garage Queen". Engine starts easily even after sitting for weeks, the garage floor is always dry when I pull her out. She cruises nicely on the highway, 460 V8 moves this big girl up the highway with ease. She idles perfectly, shifts smoothly, brakes evenly and the suspension is luxurious. Drives overall like an American luxury cruiser should. All the directional/brake/turn signal/headlights work properly, as well as the wipers and horn. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Mark V is for sale locally and I'm open to reasonable buy it now offers as well. I can assist with shipping in the USA or internationally if necessary, cost of shipping to paid by buyer. I can recommend a good door to door auto shipper if you need one. Rare classic Lincoln which is as much a pleasure to drive as she is to look at. Any questions feel free to email or call 914-224-3230 |

2017 Lincoln MKZ is a 400-hp hot rod
Wed, Nov 18 2015There are mid-cycle product updates, and then there's the 2017 MKZ. Instead of just a nip-and-tuck styling refresh, the entry-level Lincoln gets an all-new engine with a whopping 400 horsepower and an optional torque-vectoring rear differential. And that powerplant is exclusive to the Lincoln, at least for the time being. It's a sign that Ford is getting serious about elevating its luxury brand above the recent history of rebadged Blue Oval models. The engine is a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6, based on the current 2.7-liter that serves across the Ford and Lincoln lineup. With 400 horsepower and 400 pound-feet of torque, it's the most powerful Lincoln ever. That big number will only be available in all-wheel-drive versions of the MKZ. With front-wheel drive the engine will be detuned to an estimated 350 horsepower to retain some level of driving refinement. A further option on the AWD model will be the Driver's Pack, which adds the same torque-vectoring rear differential as on the forthcoming Focus RS. With the promise of rear-wheel-drive handling characteristics, the MKZ could be the most fun-to-drive Lincoln ever. In addition to the V6, a 245-horsepower, 2.0-liter turbo four and a hybrid model will be available. When the 2017 model goes on sale next spring it will be the first Lincoln in showrooms with the new signature grille, first previewed in the Continental Concept at this year's New York Auto Show. Adaptive LED headlights are available options, and a Lincoln logo "welcome mat" projects down from the side mirrors when unlocking the car at night. The view from behind is nearly unchanged, with a revised bumper giving the car a slightly wider appearance. Inside things are all new as well, with a completely revised center console. The capacitive-touch sliding controls are gone, replaced by buttons and knobs. In the press release, Lincoln mentions that engineers gave special attention to the sounds and feel of the switches, but the switches on the pre-production model at our product briefing felt cheap and loose. The large climate control knob clicked like it was grinding sand. We hope the production version will show more refinement. The good news, if you're rooting for Lincoln, is that the rest of the interior is impressive, at least in the top-of-the-line Black Label trim we saw. The front seats are comfortable, and the center console is trimmed in real aluminum.
2019 Lincoln Navigator gets slight price hikes, crosses six-figure mark
Mon, Aug 20 2018As of the end of June this year, all-new Lincoln Navigator sales are up by triple digits over last year. No wonder, as Lincoln's flagship has impressed us on both our initial drive and again recently on a 900-mile road trip. Even if numbers slump some between now and the end of the year, the full-sized luxury SUV should achieve sales not seen since 2007, when it sold 24,050 units. That would help explain why the Navigator's already had one price increase this year, in June, when MSRPs across the range went up $500 and the destination charge rose another $100. According to order guides, prices for the 2019 model year will go up even more. The entry-level Premiere trim gets bumped by another $650, while the Reserve trim climbs by $3,500. After the $1,295 destination fee, the 2019 Navigator Premiere starts $74,500, and the Select trim rises by $1,000 to $78,850. Neither of those trims add additional equipment to offset the additional cost. The Reserve price hike to $86,500 does capture the cost of the Technology Package, which will come standard. On the 2018 Navigator, that package, which bundles aids like adaptive cruise control and autonomous emergency braking, is a $2,640 option, so the net price jump for the trim is $860. The Black Label price drifts upward by $2,190 to $97,690, but the 2019 models will throw in 30-way power seats as standard. Those thrones being a $1,250 option on 2018 models, the net increase is then $940. The long-wheelbase L models will all go up by the same amount as their non-L counterparts, which puts the Navigator over the $100K mark for the first time; the 2019 Black Label L will need $100,890 to put in a suitable driveway. That's just $700 less than the list price of the 2019 Cadillac Escalade ESV Premium, but Cadillac incentives mean the Lincoln would actually cost thousands more. Lease prices have gone skyward, too. Cars Direct found that in the middle of this year, the average monthly cost for a 36-month lease in California was $1,023, a $131 increase compared to lease prices in February. Two months later, the average monthly cost in California has gone up another eight dollars, to $1,031. That's only $14 less per month than the lease for an Escalade Luxury, even though the Cadillac has a list price $9,500 higher. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.
