Excellent in every way. Extremely knowledgeable and very efficient dealership. Although I hate car salesman this was a great experience. They starting by sending me lots of emails so I sent them one that said "Chill; it's getting to the top of the list", and they chilled. Shortly afterwards I went and took the Continental for a test drive and fell in love. I am leasing a 2017 Lincoln Continental and absolutely love it. My old car is a 2001 Crown Victoria so I am finally joining the 21st Century and loving every minute of it. Thanks you guys!

I have a 2018 black label Continental which I thoroughly enjoy. Features like e-latch handles and 30 way seats are not found in German sport sedans . I like the comfortable ride , quiet cabin and heads up display. Car has been trouble free and the concierge service is great.

I love the loaner car

I was the first to buy my new Lincoln and watched for it over two years. First major problem was the doors would not close, they are electric and I had to drive to the dealer holding the door closed with my left hand. The car was constantly shaking and dealer could not find a problem finally after taking the engine apart it was decided that I needed a new engine. Yes a new engine, and a car with 24,000 miles. Get's better now my backup camera needs to be replaced. I am back in the loaner car..

Won't start

Car was delivered (new-97 miles) 12/29/18. 1/7/19 - wouldn't start, delivered with defective battery cell, replaced. 1/27/19 - wouldn't start; "system shut down to protect battery". 1/31-wouldn't start again in shop. Had it since then, 2/13, told today that "Continentals have to be run less than every 3 days, as modules talk to one another, draining battery". I say: BS. Has anyone else had this problem???

I purchase this car because everything I had read about it intrigue me. I was impressed with the interior design as well as the exterior design. Now that I own it I have a few hundred miles on it all I can say is I made the right purchase. It right is fantastic.. it's the nicest car I've ever been in.
