2007 Lincoln Town Car Executive L model sedan.

291,000 miles but still in service (not used very often)   Mileage will be more at time of auction ending (few thousand at most) 
Mechanically the vehicle is excellent. 

The OEM intake manifold was switched out (271,000 miles)  to the improved designed Dorman unit. Upper controls arm & tie rods were recently replaced with OEM parts. NEW spark plugs & serpentine belt,  installed at time of manifold replacement.

Tires are very long lasting Firestone FR710's. (installed at 283,000 miles) I have a set on another Town Car, with 73,000 miles on them, and plenty of tread left.
Brake pads were done 12,000 miles ago.
Windshield was replaced at 279,000 miles, but has since connected with a rock etc. (right in the center, about 8 inches from the bottom of windshield) 
I will have the chip "fixed" or filled/sealed or whatever it is they call it before transfer.

Battery was replaced last week.

This car glides, very smooth on the road. The ride is better than our newer 2011 model Town Cars.

Oil changes done every 3K to 5K miles. All service's are up to date. Oil will be changed again,  before transfer of vehicle.

The exterior has taken a few knocks. There a several scratches and most noticeably, is a dent on the driver-side front fender.
The interior is clean, but the passengers side/rear carpet has ripped (right where a passenger heals would make contact with carpet)

Rear air vents have been damaged.
Missing one hub cap. 
Steering wheel shows wear (never had this happen on a Town Car before) 

All lights/bulbs and switches work. Driver door main switch was replaced recently.

Trunk area is very clean, OEM spare tire/tools are present. Included is a bumper protector, for loading/unloading luggage.

Air suspension/compressor is functioning as it should. 

The car hasn't been used as much (110,000 miles in the last 2 years) Mainly for early morning airport transfers. My other sedans do 100K/year.

I'd have no issue, loading this car and driving to Florida in the morning.

May 2016: FCA wins, Ford and GM stumble on weak car volumes

Wed, Jun 1 2016

The May 2016 sales numbers are in, and it looks as though FCA is getting some vindication for boldly cancelling two slow-selling car models. Meanwhile, Ford saw overall sales dip and GM's May volume took a big dive versus the same month in 2015. While Marchionne's decision to axe the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart has drawn criticism as being short-sighted, it's working for FCA so far. Although the Dart and 200 aren't out of production yet and no capacity has been shifted to crossover or trucks, May's numbers show that the emphasis on Jeep and Ram models makes sense right now. FCA's US sales rose 1 percent last month compared to May 2015, putting the year-to-date total at 955,186 vehicles, an increase of 6 percent compared to the same period last year. Standouts included the Jeep Renegade, Compass, and Patriot, and the Fiat 500X. Ram pickup sales were down 3 percent. And your fun fact is that Alfa Romeo sales were up precisely 10 percent, for a total of 44 4Cs sold versus 40 in the same month last year. At FoMoCo, the Ford brand took a hit to the tune of 6.4 percent from May 2015 to 2016, registering 226,190 sales last month. Lincoln showed improvement on its modest numbers, going from 9,174 to 9,807, a 6.9 percent increase. Overall, Ford was down 5.9 percent for the month to 235,997; despite the slump, year-to-date total Ford sales are up 4.2 percent to 1,112,939. Strong sellers included Escape, Expedition, F-Series, and Transit - big stuff. Most small and/or efficient models (Fiesta, Focus, Fusion, C-Max) saw sales slides. Fusion sales were also down, likely due to effects of model changeover to the freshened 2017 model. Ford has promised four new crossovers and SUVs by 2020 and if things keep trending this way the company will be able to sell them, but things could change in the next four years. GM saw the worst of it for domestic brands. Retail and fleet sales were down for each of the four divisions, with the May 2016 total dropping 18 percent to 240,450 vehicles. GM's year-to-date sales are down 5.0 percent in 2016 to 1,183,705. Both the Sierra and Silverado were down significantly, and the majority of Chevy, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac nameplates saw sales decreases, with both small cars and larger utilities included. Not even big stuff could help GM this month, it seems. We'll have more on the rest of the industry's May sales as those figures trickle in.

With gaps in product portfolio, Lincoln embraces experiences

Fri, Dec 1 2017

In one sense, Lincoln is on a roll. It rides out the year having unveiled three substantially refreshed SUVs — the new full-size Navigator, the MKC crossover and the Nautilus, the new name for its top-selling MKX that Lincoln revealed in Los Angeles. The company is on pace to sell 50,000 vehicles this year in China, a four-fold jump after just three years in that market, and its sales growth in the U.S. outpaces its competition in the luxury segment. And analysts applauded the brand for moving away from its confusing alphanumeric naming system as a way to differentiate itself. But Lincoln remains far behind its competitors, with a market share that lags the likes of Lexus, Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz and even Cadillac. Its product portfolio is more limited too, heavy on hot-selling SUVs, but with only two cars — far fewer than the German luxury brands — and no marquee sports cars. Instead, Lincoln made it clear in Los Angeles that it's leaning heavily on creating distinctive experiences for its customers — its strategy focuses on being "warm, human and effortless" — as a way to stand out from the field. One way it's trying to do that is through its Black Label program, which offers premium interior trim options like unique leather stitching patterns, Alcantara headliners and laser-etched aluminum accents, and combines all that with a suite of services. Black Label members get an enhanced premium maintenance plan that includes wear and tear, anytime car washes and annual detailing, a dedicated concierge and the ability to be custom-fitted for a vehicle at their home. It also comes with a Culinary Collection, a curated list of more than 50 participating restaurants across the country that offer exclusive reservation assistance, visits from the noted chefs and other perks. Lincoln is introducing a new "Gala" Black Label theme on its new Nautilus, which it says is inspired by a night at a fashion gala. It's an interior decked out in what it calls Carmine Red, reflecting a popular color in fashion, with perforated seat stitching that form interlocking Ls. It joins the Thoroughbred and Chalet Black Label themes for the new Nautilus, which goes on sale next spring. Other Black Label themes including the Navigator's Yacht Club theme, with a Chroma Blue exterior paint color, upgraded leather seats and whitewashed teak wood in the center console, and Center Stage, with jet black Venetian leather with red accents, available on the MKC.
