Lincoln Town Car chassis
I've have read that the Lincoln Town Car has an almost 30 years old chassis ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_Panther_platform).
How can this car compete with its rivals from Cadillac and the best European and Japanese brands? |
it is quite simple, it doesn't

Having owned 4 cars based off the full size platform, 1 pre-dating the current gen (1973 Ford LTD) and having covered many 10's of thousands of miles in them, they are by far the most comfortable long distance cruisers ever built - bar none. This how and why ;) |

But yes, it did drive like a boat. :) Plus, I think they look good today, having consistently updating them, I think they look very "executive". If I remember, they have a HUGE backing from the rental and leasing fleets too. |

The Lincoln TownCar is actually more luxurious than any BMW or Benz .. way more wood and leather - BMW and Benz is about "Coffee Shop" style, TownCar is about comfort and luxury. |

Uhm - there is a reason it is the #1 choice in the world for Limousines. They make so many of these Town Cars it would make your eyes water - 125,000 cars a year... I think Mercedes sells a total of about 200,000 cars a year.. |
I agree on the comfort bit. There is acres of space inside of them, plus the super comfy seats.
|
Yes - the rear seat legroom is Maybach sized.. ;) for what 1/500th of the price? :P
