Two minor scratches.
The sleek styling of the exterior combined with the elegant interior with its soft leather seats and computerized status readout make this a unique automobile. The air-ride suspension makes you feel like you’re floating at times. At other times the sports tuned suspension lets you corner like the car was painted on the road. The body styling and chrome wheels absolutely turn heads and gate guards will think twice before questioning your right to enter. With the best possible combination of features offering Lincoln class and comfort combined with Ford’s powerhouse InTech 32-valve engine when you drive this Mark VIII you do truly own the road.
At 290 horsepower and 295 feet pounds of torque, the Mark VIII’s 4.6-liter overhead-cam V-8 provides tons of smooth, seamless power. With its high-performance exhaust note adding an element of nostalgia, this hot-rod Lincoln can't decide whether to cruise the country club or show off at the drag strip. It's fast and it's responsive, thanks to the sports suspension that irons out the rough spots while keeping this cruiser remarkably level on curves, thanks to computer-adjusted air springs.
All under the powered moon roof, the interior is lush without being too plush. Supportive leather seats are set in a wide, roomy cabin, all nicely appointed, with an uncluttered dashboard holding gauges and controls that are simple and straightforward. The wide doors make it easy to get in and out of the front and rear seats. The trunk is enormous.
As you’d expect, the Mark VIII comes loaded to the gills with features, some of which are pretty unusual:
*Outside mirrors that tilt down when you back up and with built-in turn signals to warn nearby
drivers of lane changes.
*When the doors are unlocked by remote control, the mirrors illuminate the sides of the car and the
ground with what Lincoln called ''puddle lamps.''
*Neon lighting on the rear deck. The Mark VIII has a neon tube brake light mounted beneath the 48-
inch-wide, deck lid. Makes the car stand out at night.
*High-intensity-discharge (HID), low-beam headlamps that produce 2.7 times more light than halogen
lamps while using much less power. On high beams, they could double as airplane landing lights.
*A computer system that, with the touch of a button, analyzes major mechanical systems, computes
gas mileage, checks the oil, displays the date and time, and tells you which way you're going.
*A steering wheel and front seats that glide out of the way for entry and exit, then powers back into
their programmed place when the ignition key is inserted.
*An absolutely amazing stereo sound system with an eight-speaker, Ford/JBL AM/FM stereo
radio with compact disc.
*It comes with two original Owner’s Guide, Quick Tips Manual, The Benefits of Owning a Lincoln
booklet, and various other papers associated with the car.
*The original sticker price was $41,065.

Lincoln drops MKX base price to $38,995
Mon, Jun 22 2015Lincoln is giving the 2016 MKX a major improvement in style and tech, and is introducing the 2.7-liter EcoBoost V6 as an option for the luxury crossover. While all of those changes are significant, the cost might be just as enticing to get customers checking out the new generation. The base price for 2016 falls to $38,995, after an $895 destination charge on all models, compared to $39,795 for the 2015. At this time, there are three trim levels listed on Lincoln's site, but a Black Label version is supposed to come along later to add a bit more opulence. Above the base Premiere trim, the Select model starts at $42,285, and adds features like LED running lights, folding and heated mirrors, leather seats, and a power hatch. Spending $46,050 brings buyers to the Reserve trim with upgrades including a panoramic sunroof, 20-inch wheels, navigation, adaptive headlights, and heated seats. There are a huge number of individual options available, including full LED headlights and a safety suite of tech. Opting for the 2.7-liter EcoBoost pushes the price of any trim up an extra $2,000, and checking the box for all-wheel drive brings with it an added $2,495. As ever, you can spec one out yourself on the official configurator here.
2023 Grand National Roadster Show Mega Photo Gallery | Hot rod heaven
Wed, Feb 8 2023POMONA, Calif. — From an outsider's perspective, it would be easy to assume that the Grand National Roadster Show has always been a Southern California institution. After all, it celebrates the diverse postwar car culture of the region — hot rods, lead sleds, lowriders, and more. However, the show had its roots in NorCal in 1950 when Al Slonaker and his hot rod club showed their custom cars at the Oakland Expo. The GNRS moved to Pomona, California, in 2004. By then it had grown exponentially and seen about a dozen more car customization trends come and go. However, the show and its centerpiece award, the America's Most Beautiful Roadster prize, celebrate what is perhaps the first of those trends: the American hot rod in its purest form. Today, in its 73rd year, the GNRS is the oldest indoor car show in America. Annually it welcomes 500-800 cars, gathered into special themes like Tri-Five Chevys or Volkswagen Bugs. At this year's show, which was last weekend, a special hall was dedicated to pickup trucks built between 1948-98, including mini-trucks, groovy camper bed conversions, and resto-mods. However, of all the vehicles presented, only nine are eligible for the America's Most Beautiful Roadster award. Winners get their names engraved on a 9-foot-tall perpetual trophy that was, according to The Ultimate Hot Rod Dictionary, the largest in the world when it debuted in 1950. Slonaker chose the word "roadster" initially because "hot rod" bore slightly negative outlaw connotations in 1950. Only American cars built before 1937 of certain body styles — roadsters, roadster pickups, phaetons, touring cars — are eligible, and they cannot have roll-down side windows. Cars in the running for the cup cannot have been shown anywhere else before their debut at the GNRS. Contestants for this accolade essentially build their cars to the a platonic ideal of a hot rod. This year the honors went to Jack Chisenhall of San Antonio, Texas, for his "Champ Deuce," a 1932 Ford Roadster. It's exactly what you picture when you think of a hot rod, but distilled to its absolute essence. Other standouts included "Green Eyes," a two-tone green 1959 Chevy El Camino with a heavily metal-flaked bed, "Blue Monday," a 1964 Buick Riviera lowrider, and a personal favorite, "Purple Reign," a purple and black 1951 Mercury. Cars may have started out as tools, but there aren't shows like this filled with custom refrigerators.
Auto Show Notebook: Legendary Continental name inspired Lincoln's designers
Thu, Apr 2 2015What's in a name? A lot for the Continental concept, and it gave Lincoln designers a sense of purpose as they styled the brand's upcoming flagship sedan. "The moment that we told them, it was amazing," Lincoln president Kumar Galhotra said. "They totally got it." "It" is cutting-edge technology wrapped in stately, large-sedan design. It's a nod to Lincoln's storied past, but a signpost for where the brand is heading. Though the Continental name dates to the late 1930s, Lincoln designers avoided making the concept overtly retro. "You can't let it pull yourself back too far in history, but you've got to design a car that lives up to the name," Galhotra said. Speaking to Autoblog on the floor of the New York Auto Show where the Continental formally debuted Wednesday, the Lincoln president reiterated that the car is on track to launch in 2016. It will compete against the Audi A6, Lexus GS, BMW 5 Series and other large luxury sedans. After its debut, the concept in New York will fly to China – another critical market for Lincoln – for display there. It will be replaced in New York by a prototype without an interior. The Continental is the latest high profile play by Lincoln to raise its image with consumers, who have either ignored or forgotten about it amid steep competition in the luxury sector from German and Japanese brands and a potentially resilient Cadillac. Lincoln sales are essentially flat compared with 2014 through the first quarter of this year, with total volume of 21,478 units. The middling start to 2015 comes on the heels of nearly 16-percent sales growth last year spurred by the launch of the MKC and the prominent signing of Matthew McConaughey to star in Lincoln advertisements. Other News, Notes & Quotes Speaking of names, Chevrolet did its homework before deciding to proceed with "Malibu" for its new generation of midsize cars. "We went out and researched it," said Alan Batey, president of General Motors North America. "People actually like the name 'Malibu,'" he said. Admittedly, the current Malibu has struggled in the marketplace against entrenched competitors, Batey said, but he's optimistic its awareness and historical value are assets to the dramatically redesigned sedan."The name's strong," he said. Meanwhile, in other Chevy news, the brand kicked off a new marketing campaign, "Real People, Not Actors" Wednesday. It will show consumers interacting with Chevys and their spontaneous reactions to the vehicles.
