Year:1999 Mileage:147490
Location:

McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania, United States

McKees Rocks, Pennsylvania, United States

Up for your consideration is a Lincoln Continental.  This is my daily driver/sales car.  It gets up to 350 miles a day so millage will change.

The not perfect:
Now and then a code for tq converter switch (has done for the past 40k miles)
Dash lights sometimes comes on
Interior lights don't always work
The car will shutter a little bit under very light acceleration (tq converter switch - has done it for 40k, actually is getting less and less noticeable)
Some minor dings and two rust spots
Sometimes the factory Alpine 6 disk doesn't read disks (needs cleaned)

The good:
PA inspected
VERY VERY STRONG RUNNER
Looks very classy/sexy
Hasn't let me down (I drive A LOT)
Rides great
Handles great
Super cold AC
Super hot heat
Air suspension works great
Ride control
Stereo sounds fantastic 
Super comfortable 
Sunroof/windows/locks all work perfect
Was told when I bought it that it has remote start but I never put new batteries in the fob so haven't tried it
Many new parts!
Performance oriented luxury
Clients love it!
Safe and fun to drive
Performance exhaust (2.5" Tails, just one resonator after the y pipe) SOUNDS SO GOOD!


New Parts:
Water pump (800 miles ago)
Front ball joint (800 miles ago)
Front tires (800 miles ago)
Alignment (800 miles ago)
Battery and brakes are newer

Options:  All Continentals are totally loaded.  The only two options you could get is the Alpine stereo and sun roof.  This car has both. 

Performance:  This car has the 32v 4.6 motor.  Same long block as the SVT Cobras. 
From Motor Trend:
  • 4,601 cc 4.6 liters V 8 front transverse engine with 90.2 mm bore, 90 mm stroke, 9.9 compression ratio, light alloy block, light alloy head, double overhead cam and four valves per cylinder
  • Fuel consumption: EPA urban (mpg): 17 and country/highway (mpg): 25
  • Fuel economy EPA highway (mpg): 25 and EPA city (mpg): 17
  • Multi-point injection fuel system
  • 20 gallon fuel tank
  • Heavy duty alternator
  • Heavy duty battery
  • Power: 205 kW , 275 HP @ 5,750 rpm; 275 ft lb , 373 Nm @ 4,750 rpm

  • At the end of the day this is a great looking great performing car.  It does have almost 150k so yes, it does have noises, bumps and isn't perfect.  But I drive it 100-350 miles a day. It runs great, stops and moves great.  Its sexy transportation.  Please don't buy it and get mad that you heard a noise driving over a bump.  Or that a light came on the dash.  Its old but cool!  It gets you from point a to b quickly with the COLD AC and or HOT heat.  Buy this and enjoy it!

    Here is a clip of what the exhaust sounds like:

    MyFord Touch getting buttons and knobs back to counter criticisms

    Mon, 17 Jun 2013

    Ford deserves credit for being a front-runner in offering advanced infotainment technology with its Sync and MyFord Touch systems, but continued consumer complaints over its confusing touchscreen interface and capacitive controls has made the automaker relent. The Wall Street Journal reports that physical buttons and knobs for controlling tuning and volume will be coming back to Ford vehicles equipped with the controversial infotainment system.
    The 2013 F-150 with MyFord Touch gives us a glimpse of what the new layout with buttons and knobs might look like, as Ford says a similar balance of touch screen capability and buttons/knobs are what's being planned for future models. And, while capacitive controls have no fans in the halls of Autoblog, many of Ford's models with MyFord Touch do have a large physical knob for adjusting volume with integrated buttons for tuning and advancing tracks, though most of those are models with the optional upgraded Sony Audio system. Lincoln models with MyLincoln Touch, however, feature only capacitive controls for all stereo and climate functions.
    Despite receiving enough complaints to throw buttons and knobs back into the mix (a move that reminds us of BMW's iDrive trajectory, among others), Ford reports that Sync and MyFord Touch have still been sold on 79 percent of its 2013 model year vehicles, a number it claims is double the rate that Honda and Toyota are getting for their infotainment systems. Ford also states that owners who do opt for the duo of technologies are more satisfied with overall vehicle quality than those who don't have it.

    Conan O'Brien takes McConaughey's Lincoln ad to its logical conclusion

    Thu, 11 Sep 2014

    We all had to see this coming. Conan O'Brien has released a parody of Matthew McConaughey's new ads for the 2015 Lincoln MKC and remixed them with lines from one of his most critically acclaimed recent roles.
    The now much darker commercial probably isn't how Lincoln would prefer the MKC to be marketed, but really in a few of the actual ads, McConaughey already seems moments away from breaking into a full Rustin Cohle from True Detective impression. The cadence and tone of his voice are just so close to that character, especially in the one where he's talking to the bull standing in the middle of the road. It very nearly verges on parody anyway; Conan is just turning all of this up to 11.
    It's a little surprising that the writers didn't dig a little deeper into the McConaughey oeuvre for the parody. Maybe McConaughey could have taken the MKC for a party at the Moon Tower from Dazed and Confused. In any case, it's worth a quick watch, so check it out.

    More than 800,000 Fords recalled for faulty Takata airbags

    Thu, Jan 12 2017

    The Basics: Ford is recalling about 816,000 Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles built in the US for faulty passenger-side Takata airbags. The affected vehicles were all built in North America, with 654,695 recalled vehicles in the US and 161,174 vehicles in Canada. A wide variety of cars, trucks, and SUVs are affected. This is a planned expansion of an earlier recall. 2005-09 and 2012 Ford Mustang 2005-06 Ford GT 2006-09 and 2012 Ford Fusion 2007-09 Ford Ranger 2007-09 Ford Edge 2006-09 and 2012 Lincoln Zephyr and Lincoln MKZ 2007-09 Lincoln MKX 2006-09 Mercury Milan The Problem: Like every other Takata recall, the problem rests with faulty airbags that can potentially expel shrapnel, injuring or killing vehicle occupants. Millions of vehicles from dozens of automakers are affected, so don't think that Ford is alone on this one. Injuries/Deaths: Ford stated in a press release that there have been no injuries or death linked to the vehicles in this recall. All in all, 11 deaths and 180 injuries across a variety of automakers have been linked to these Takata airbags. The fix: Ford will contact owners soon, and the affected vehicles will have their airbags replaced by a dealer at no additional charge. If you own one: Wait for contact from Ford, then head to the dealer to get a replacement. If you're wondering if your vehicle is affected, go to this Ford website and enter their Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). The recall reference number is 17S01.
