Finest car on the road

I bought this beautiful, safe and luxurious vehicle because we had owned a previous Lincoln. Because my husband is handicapped I immediately had U Haul install the strong underbody lift for his motorized wheelchair. We traveled in comfort to MN and Utah but his condition deteriorated and he can no longer use the wheelchair, therefore I hope it will be a solution to someone else who has a patient in need of this superior ride for their loved one.

GORGEOUS CAR! Sold undeservedly short by Edmunds

Driven the gorgeous, All American “land yachts” my entire life...and have been a Town Car loyalist for years. Plush, comfortable, and church quiet even at high speeds. The styling of the last generation of Town Cars may not have been quite the equivalent of the Continentals of yore...but you will still feel the grandeur of what a classic luxury sedan is all about as you are cosseted in comfort by leather sofas...a roomy interior...and a great ride whether you are driver or passenger. And the reliability? As a NY limo driver friend of mine once said: “They are hard wearing, easy to fix, and with proper care and basic maintenance, these Panthers will almost literally eat nails...then come back for more! I don’t care much for the rather dour reviews many places like Edmunds. They sell this car short, which for its class and durability...is far less than it deserves! Sure, when The Town Car is up against a modern “luxury car”, she looks dated to “modern eyes”. She’s basic, huge, and “out of place” in the current market. But what those of this persuasion don’t understand is...that’s why many of us LOVE HER! The term “luxury car” has sadly evolved and now defines a “fast, futuristic, performance machine with the latest of gizmos and computerised gadgets”. The venerable Lincoln, on the other hand, is a glorious throwback, in handling and styling, to what an American “luxo barge” used to be all about. In performance, she is graceful and steady...and in comfort and style, she hearkens back to that sense of elegant gentility that the world has since lost appreciation for. Worst decision Ford Lincoln ever made was to scrap this car. We literally turned our back on something that was not only beautiful, but something that works very well, and served us reliably for decades. If you are like me, and you share appreciation for a real, roomy, stately car that will literally go for hundreds of thousands of miles...please find yourself one of these and take care of it well. We have literally gotten to the point where, for those of us who refuse to budge on real quality...there is nothing else on the market. Nothing replaces these cars...except for finding another one.

Our 2007 Lincoln gives a roomy and comfortable ride with excellent trunk space and 23 MPG economy on a road trip and 18MPG around town. It isn't the fastest car off the line, but a Lincoln owner is mature enough to know this isn't necessary or desirable. It gives adequate performance when passing or getting up to speed on the interstates. When you analyze what a car should do - transport a number of people in comfort and safety at a reasonable cost - the Lincoln Town Car excels at that. Our 92 Town Car gave excellent service for 15 years, and this one seems to be just as reliable. Seats are comfortable and the features are great. Our 67,000 miles with no service problems says it all!

Great Value

2007 Lincoln Town Car Signature 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

This is my 3rd Lincoln and it is by far the best I've owned.My '07 rides better than my '96 and gets better gas mileage. This car truly excels on the highway where the soft ride, excellent sound system and more than adequate power consumes miles without effort. I have owned Acura, Mercedes and other quality cars and for the money, they cannot match the TC. The interior is so large and comfortable you cannot compare it to any other car. The gas mileage is great for such a large car. On long trips I have averaged almost 25 mpg going 75 mph - all done on regular gas. This car does everything extremely well at a very compelling price.

Yes it is a large vehicle, yet, it is one of the best I have owned so far. I went to pruchase another vehicle and test drove the lexus, mercedes, nissan, even other lincolns. After each test drive I was very happy to get into my TC. I don't know if you would call it fun to drive put it is absolutely a pleasure.

One of the most reliable cars I have ever owned. They weren't packed full of tech but they ran great, lasted forever, and were ridiculously comfortable!

These cars are very well built. 2008 is very likely to be the last year that the Town Car is available. There is simply no ride quality to equal that of the town car. The engine is well refined and superior to the all aluminum NorthStar power plant of the Cadillac (which is well known now for its grievous unreliability.) This car is heavy, safe, and handles extremely well for its size. The fuel mileage is great for this car (avg. 25mpg on the road). It is sad to see this icon of American luxury go. If you want traditional a\American luxury, the reliability of rear wheel drive, and the reliable, versatile, and inexpensive to maintain modular engine, you need to seriously consider this car
