Numbered car 216 Special Edition with low miles. Purchased from original owner. Garage Kept. The pictures speak for themselves.
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 considering giving cars real names again
Wed, Apr 22 2015Enthusiastic reaction to the Continental concept might be the death knell for Lincoln's alphabet soup of monikers. "Without divulging the future, we're very excited about the Continental name and the attention it's gotten," Ford President of the Americas Joe Hinrichs said to Automotive News. Hinrichs admitted that the current MK names could confuse those not familiar with the models. Hinrichs suggested that one way Lincoln might differentiate itself was to "leverage its heritage." While this is certainly nothing explicit, the talk could be an indication of an upcoming overhaul for the brand's naming scheme. The Continental is set to hit the market next year as a replacement for the MKS as the company makes a major push into China. Lincoln bosses reportedly gave the designers the model name as inspiration for what to create. The brand's health has slowly been improving since former Ford CEO Alan Mulally was ready to completely kill the brand. Last year, a new boss was appointed to the helm, and there were reports of a modular platform under development. Let us know in Comments what Lincoln names you want to see revived. The Town Car is likely the best-known model from the brand after the Continental, and Zephyr has fairly recent history as the brief moniker for the MKZ. Related Video:
2015 Lincoln Navigator
Mon, 15 Sep 2014Typically, when I approach a new vehicle launch, it's with a degree of optimism. Nowadays, we just expect that every new vehicle will pose a legitimate challenge to segment leaders. Mid-cycle refreshes, meanwhile, have taken on a greater degree of importance, as customers' preferences for the freshest vehicles remains strong and automakers rush to keep the latest tech in their offerings.
Conversely, I admit to not being terribly optimistic hopping into the 2015 Lincoln Navigator. I was the first person from Autoblog to see the new model in the metal, way back in January ahead of its Chicago Auto Show debut, and my initial reaction was far from positive. But, as I'd been the one that initially tested the new Cadillac Escalade and had just finished a week in the long-wheelbase version of General Motors' most premium SUV, I was a natural candidate to head down to Louisville, KY - home of Navigator production - to sample the brand's latest.
Lincoln's attempt at freshening the old Navigator's bling-bling face is pretty typical of today's more thorough mid-cycle refreshes, with dramatically new front and rear clips. The addition of standard 20-inch wheels or optional 22s - in place of standard 18s and optional 20s - goes a long way towards modernizing the Navigator's staid exterior. The cabin, meanwhile, is home to finer leather, which covers most of the dash as well as the steering wheel and seats. Warm Ziricote wood would prove to be a particular highlight on the top-flight Reserve model that I drove (the only trim available for us to test).
Ford to update Sync, MyFord Touch software... again
Wed, 07 Aug 2013Ford hasn't had the best luck with its MyFord Touch and Sync systems, as the finicky infotainment system has been subject to a critical whooping while customer issues have helped sink Ford's IQS scores. The automaker has made a concerted effort, though, to try and fix MyFord Touch. And while the results have been mixed, The Blue Oval is hoping its latest free update, set to go live next week, will make things better.
According to a report from The Detroit News, the new system promises streamlined voice commands with fewer levels between opening query and actual result. Ford is also addressing where certain options are selected on the touchscreen. Rather than working one of the four quadrants on the homescreen, users will be able to select anywhere within the quadrant to make adjustments.
While it might only be a band-aid for MFT's problems, the fact that Ford is still trying to improve it is a promising sign. It's going to take more than just this update to address the system's ills, though.
