Offered is my originally purchased 2007 Lincoln Designer Town Car which is smoke and pet free. Options on car: Cashmere Paint, WSW Tires, 6 CD Radio, Power Moon Roof, HID Headlamps and California Emissions. Many standard items on this car including 17" chrome wheels, fog lights, upgraded leather, adjustable rear headrests, heated front seats, dual-zone auto climate control, adjustable brake/gas pedals, full power open/close trunk lid + many more. Car was never involved in any accident or had paint work done to it nor smoked in. The paint is 100% original except for a few very minor touch ups. This is a turn key car meaning there are no known problems. This car has NEVER been exposed to rock salt, snow or ice, therefore there is no rot. Interior and trunk lighting has been upgraded to white LEDs. This can revert back to factory style lighting easily. There is an external transmission FL1 oil filter installed to make sure the transmission  fluid is clean. I used Mobil 1 engine oil from day one. When I changed/flushed the transmission fluid, I used Mobil 1 synthetic transmission fluid. I kept this car under a severe usage maintenance schedule due to some dust in my area.  Most likely that was not required but I wanted to be sure. The air filter was changed every 10,000 miles--far earlier than the usual 30,000 miles. I have included my maintenance records to show what and when service was done. The great thing is that I did NOT purchase my car with a factory installed navigation system! Ford/ Lincoln no longer supports that system, meaning NO MAP UPDATES are available. Beware of these cars with the navigation systems as they only have old maps. If you have question about this car, ask me a question as I am the original owner. *****You can make arrangements and pay for a professional to inspect this car as I have nothing to hide. Since I did some road trips, I installed a full size spare tire--it's on a non chrome Town Car wheel. The factory donut spare tire is also present and all tires are filled with nitrogen. Interior windows were tinted and rear windows had vent covers on them--easy to remove if you don't like them. No personal items that are visible in photos are included. I can store car at my location for a few weeks if paid in full. For out of State purchaser, arrangements can be made for your pick up at the SkyHarbor, Phoenix AZ Airport. You must have a PayPal account to bid on this vehicle. Just added two photos of a new replacement driver's lower seat cushion cover that will become part of this offer. Back in 2007 I ordered a new seat cover as the driver's seat bottom usually receives the most wear. Right now it doesn't pay to replace it, but in the future it might be required. The value of this cover was $250 in 2007 and is no longer available. Due to a question asked about the paint being shiny, I added the last four photos. There is no damage to the car as the photos were taken to show reflections in the shiny paint. There are two ways to answer that question, #1 with added photos and my description with photos or #2 hire a professional to inspect the car. I've been an eBay seller for over ten years with a 100% feedback rating. A 2007 Designer Town Car being sold by the only/original owner with posted maintenance records is hard to find.

Cabin Air Filter--non factory

When the windshield was replaced, I noticed a tray/area for an intake cabin air filter. You must remove the passenger side vent covering in the engine compartment . There are two long plastic screws. I used a filter for the 1999-2010 Jeep Cherokee, it had to be cut down length wise to fit in the 3" X 13" tray. I over cut it first to see how it would fit. You must take a little more off the forward edge. The following filters work: Fram CF10363, WIX 24903 or NAPA 4903 which I was able to locate.

Ford abandons MyFord Touch, all hail Sync 3 infotainment [w/video]

Thu, Dec 11 2014

MyFord Touch has been among the most widely disdained automotive infotainment systems on the market, practically since its introduction in 2010. Consumer Reports was among the most vocal critics, all but advocating its lynching by an angry mob armed with torches and pitchforks. Not surprisingly, then, after such a critical walloping, Ford has finally decided to say goodbye to the unloved tech, declaring the end of MyFord Touch branding in favor of Sync 3 for its upcoming, all-new system. Ford is promising everything you would expect from Sync 3, including faster response time, better voice-command integration, easier controls and a more useable interface. The screen layout includes fewer items to make them easier to discern, and the icons are made from large, high-contrast buttons. There's also a dedicated tab for apps at the bottom of the screen in addition to those for audio, climate, phone and navigation. Another useful feature is the fact that Sync 3 can download improvements over your home Wi-Fi for easier updates. In addition to the revamped interface, the software running behind the scenes is a big change too. Rather than MyFord Touch's Microsoft-sourced system, Sync 3 uses the Blackberry-owned QNX, according to Automotive News. Such a switch was rumored earlier this year. Drivers still have to live with MyFord Touch a little longer, though. According to Automotive News, Ford said that the change to Sync 3 will happen during the 2016 model year with complete integration into the lineup by the end of the 2016 calendar year. It will come standard on Titanium trim models and as a separate option will be priced in line with the current MyFord Touch. The Sync 3 brand will carry over to Lincoln, too, but with a different look. The gallery above shows a few more looks at the interface, and we invite you to scroll down to watch a video of Sync 3 in action and to read Ford's press release about it, below.

Five cursed and haunted cars

Fri, Oct 31 2014

Any kid lucky enough to grow up in Detroit is familiar with the Henry Ford Museum. It's huge, full of shiny things and a great place to take a child and let them burn off some energy. After several field trips and weekend outings however, the dusty concept vehicles and famous aircraft tend to lose their punch for youngsters. As a fifth grader, I was already gazing on the museum's many gems with glassy eyes. On yet another school trip, we made our way to John F. Kennedy's death car, a gleaming black Lincoln limo. The aging volunteer docent told our little group something I had never heard before. "You know, this car is haunted. Several employees have reported seeing a gray presence right here," he said, pointing to the back passenger side seat. I perked up. Now here was something I had never heard before. A haunted car? Sure, it happened in Goosebumps, but this was real life. It made sense, in a way. Cars can be violent, emotional places. That's certainly the case with JFK's limo, as well as the other four cars on this list. And maybe those gut-wrenching deaths can permanently doom a car. 5. Archduke Franz Ferdinand's Graf & Stift Death Limo World War I tends to be a forgotten war, despite being pretty terrible in its own right and setting the stage for the entire 20th Century. The French forces, for instance, lost more lives in the first month of WWI than the US did in the entire Civil War. Everyone who has been through a freshman world history course knows the conflict started when Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were shot by a Bosnian anarchist. The crazy thing is, Ferdinand had already avoided an attempt on his life that day, and was actually on his way to the hospital to comfort those who had been injured in the crossfire. One of the would-be assassins simply walked out of a cafe and saw his intended target sitting in front of him where the open-air limo had stalled. The archduke and his wife were shot through their heads and throats. Their deaths would not be the last caused by the limo. Throughout the war and into the 1920s, the limo was owned by fifteen different people and involved in six accidents and thirteen deaths, not counting the 17 million or so killed in the war triggered by the Archduke's assassination. The first person to own the car after the Archduke was an Austrian general named Potiorek, who went insane while riding in the car through Vienna.

Lincoln putting perfume on its sales

Mon, 18 Aug 2014

Lincoln has a scent. But unlike those from Mustang, Lamborghini or even Shark by Tara, you can't buy it and you have to visit a Lincoln dealership to inhale its notes of jasmine hedione, mate tea leaves and tonka beans. Essence of Lincoln - that's what it's called - is being piped through the ventilation systems at some showrooms to help "create an emotional connection between the luxury brand and its customers," and olfactorily promote the idea of "luxury and warmth." Where it's not run through the ducts, visitors can sample it on scent cards.
Master perfumer Rene Morgenthaler worked with aroma house SensoryMax to design Essence of Lincoln. Also including traces of Earl Grey bergamot and green tea, whenever you encounter it you're meant to enjoy "a feeling of belonging to an exclusive, forward-thinking group that values style and success." And then buy an MKC. There's a press release below with details and an image to explain more, if you're still having a little trouble smelling the orange blossoms.
