Rare 1979 Lincoln Mark V Designer Series Givenchy Edition With NO RESERVE 400 V8, 68k original miles. Rare Givenchy Designer Series with Crystal Blue Moondust Metallic paint and front-half Valino Grain Vinyl Roof in Dark Crystal Blue. This was the most expensive designer model available in 1979, done in a special blue exterior color that was offered one year. Another unique feature is the reversed vinyl roof treatment. There were only approximately 2200 produced in 1979. Options include quarter windows that lower and raise before main window, working "Quadrasonic" 8-track with digital display, memory settings, and auto scan ($380 option), digital "miles to empty" readout, working thermometer on driver's side view mirror, tilt steering wheel, remote trunk release and automatic dimming headlights. Here's a page describing the features of the 79 Givenchy Edition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lincoln_Continental_Mark_V#Givenchy_3 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 shocks as well as a set of new Michelin tires. The a/c works but could use a freon charge, 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 but do start to open after the car has been sitting for a few days. Cosmetics: the interior is very nice, the leather overall is in excellent condition, even the driver's seat does not show wear. The door panels, dash display, headliner and visors are in very good condition, the dash has one sun crack in the center. The vinyl top has a nice grain pattern, it's close to perfect, 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. She's never been out in the winter, I just took her out to get some extra shots for the auction. 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, 400 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 and handles well considering its size. 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 |

Watch 14 hot rides take over concept car lawn at Pebble Beach
Sun, Aug 16 2015The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance is an annual celebration of the beautiful, old cars that grace Monterey Car Week. But Monterey – and Pebble – features lots of newer metal, too, and that includes the concept lawn at Pebble Beach. Now, "concept lawn" isn't a totally accurate name anymore, and you'll see why in the list below. This year especially, plenty of production cars can be found in the area once reserved for the conceptual. Still, we're happy to see them. Here's what's featured this year: Alfa Romeo 4C Spider Audi R8 BAC Mono Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6 BMW 3.0 CSL Hommage R Buick Avenir Galpin-Fisker Rocket Speedster Hyundai HCD-16 Vision G Coupe Icona Volcano Infiniti Q60 Lamborghini Asterion LPI 910-4 Maserati Ghibli McLaren 570S Rolls-Royce Wraith By our count, that's seven concepts out of fourteen cars. But it still makes for one hot group of metal. Check 'em out in the gallery above.

Ford tumbles to second worst in Consumer Reports reliability survey, list dominated by Japanese [w/video]
Mon, 29 Oct 2012It's no secret that MyFord Touch has had its share of problems since being introduced, but the most recent reliability survey from Consumer Reports shows just how much this infotainment system has affected Ford. Just two years ago, the automaker was in the top 10 for the institute's reliability rankings, but since then, it has tumbled to the second-lowest rung just above dead-last Jaguar. In addition to MyFord Touch, CR also attributes a handful of new products that have had issues right out of the gate.
Compiled from 1.2 million subscriber surveys, this year's auto reliability survey heavily favors Japanese automakers, with eight of the 10 spots hailing from Japan. Toyota brands grabbed the top three spots (Scion, Toyota and Lexus - in that order) with Mazda, Subaru, Honda and Acura filling the next four spots. The only non-Asian automaker cracking the top 10 was Audi at number eight.
Audi climbed a total of 18 spots from last year, and Cadillac and GMC round out this year's top gainers breaking into the top 15. Helping Cadillac's upward movement, the CTS Coupe was named the most reliable domestic car. Lincoln, Volvo and Chrysler join Ford on this year's biggest loser list.
2016 Lincoln MKX spied in production form
Wed, Dec 17 2014We're getting our first quality look at the next-generation Lincoln MKX in production guise thanks to these fresh spy shots, and they suggest styling that hews very closely to the concept from earlier this year. Compared to the showcar, the headlights aren't quite as well integrated into the grille, but these LED units still attempt to nicely wrap the split-wing grille across the entire face of the vehicle. Beyond that, the two vehicles quite similar, though. The shape of the lower air dam is practically identical – just with some extra plastic for the production version. The hint of a character line running down the side also makes the resemblance easy to spot, despite this tester's polka-dot camouflage. At the rear, the taillights stretch across the hatch with integrated exhaust outlets below. Even the twin-spoke wheels are comparable to the concept. Also, look carefully at these spy shots, and you can notice Lincoln apparently testing two different trims. One has LED headlights with front and rear parking sensors (pictured above), and the other shows projector lights with the sensors only at the rear. The next-gen MKX will launch in 2015 and will be the first model in Lincoln's lineup to benefit from the deal with Harman to use its high-end Revel audio system. Check out the gallery to get a mildly camouflaged sneak preview of the company's future luxury crossover.
