200,000 Miles and still flying

Besides the intake manifold breaking and costing around $300 to replace, this car is extremely reliable and never gives me any problems. Dispite approaching 200,000 miles, the car still starts, idles and races like a new car. Just the other day i took out a hooked up RX-7. The BEST this i ever did for this car was put a set of Michelin LTX (light truck) tires, simillar to (Navigator tires) along with a set of 2002 Lincoln Town Car Brakes system (larger brake discs). The car feels as though it has traction control. Nearly impossible to make it slide, even in the rain. It has much less sway, way more traction, and a very smooth ride.

It's a beautiful gorgeous and very fancy car.gorgiouse I loved my car had it for 6 years .it needs original parts so it can last longer .husband was putting used parts that's why they had to be replaced alot and very expensive and hard to find parts.overall it's a very comfy . spacious limo looking car.worth having around.i sold mine cause of money issues,which caused me to get depression,and other sickness over my beloved car.good news I will get another asap!!can't live without my Lincoln.
