Love my Lincoln, rides like a dream.
I love my Lincoln!! I bought it three years ago and at 130,000 miles, it runs like it is brand new! I have had minimal repairs in three years; basically just general maintenance. The comfort level is awesome!! She drives smooth, handles like a dream, and with a v8, she gets & goes quickly!

It's a Luxury vehicle with a sports car feel
Its roomy n it rides smooth on the highway. Very reliable and it also has great gas mileage. It's a great car to own because of its shape and style it's considered a Luxury car. But it drives like a race car and can get up to 140 miles per hour, but I don't drive that fast in it.

The anti theft system will shut your car down when you change a dead battery
It has the common timing chain/ tensioner issues but overall, it has been a good reliable car. Also very luxurious to ride in

Lincoln Town car Cartier drives like a dream
My car is very reliable good on gas love the air suspension it drives like you are floating down the road tells you when you're low on gas it starts singing at 50 miles remaining the AC and heat work great it seats 6 no problem. It doesn't use a lot of gas even though it's a V8

It has a button to unlock
Shakes, runs hot, battery weak, scratches on the paint job, seats torn and ripped. Rims rusted severely
accountCircle Lauren K
Caution: needs entire parking lot to complete a turn.
It has terrible gas mileage, electrical problems, and maneuvers like a tank. But it's sturdy and great in winter.
accountCircle Joseph B
It is good to drive and looks well, but it's is expensive to use over time due to gas type and fuel mileage.
I like that my car has an adequate amount of legroom for the driver as I am tall. I don't however like that it only takes premium gasoline.
accountCircle Alex S
It burns through fuel and oil way too quickly.
Burns up too much fuel. Takes premium gas. Has had engine problems and transmission issues since we purchased it.
accountCircle Brandon W
Its old but has good mileage and is very spanish.
I like the miles per gallon dislike the fact that it's hard to find parts for the car. Like that it has plenty of space i'm a tall guy. Dislike the old ac its not very effective.
accountCircle David C
It requires at least plus gas which is getting pretty expensive. The last time I filled up it cost $44.
It rides alright but I'm starting to get some rust under the passenger side rear wheel well that is making me consider getting a new vehicle within the next couple years. I have had some weird stalling issues as well.
accountCircle Ava W
Drives very smooth, the seats are comfortable. Very nice on the inside.
My Lincoln 2001 continental drives very smooth. The only bad thing is the gas mileage, it uses so much gas. I love the interior, the cream color is very nice. The leather seats are very comfortable. I dislike that there is no AUX cord, but it does take cassette tapes.
accountCircle Faye S
It is comfortable and drives smoothly. I feel very safe in it, as it is made with real metal parts, not fiberglass.
I like how dependable it has been. I am wanting to get something new soon as this car is starting to have things go wrong.
