Here is a rare find! This is a 1997 Lincoln Continental that is a garaged one owner Florida car with only 48k original miles and clean as can be inside and out! These Continental's have been favorites for years but are getting VERY hard to find in nice shape and with low miles. This one is as nice as you could hope for in any 1997 car and it was owned by an older wealthy couple who live in the prestigious community of Bonita Bay here in south Florida. It was bought new right here at our local Lincoln dealership and traded in by the original owners at our local Volvo dealership in this shape! It has been garaged it's whole life and has a clean Autocheck report showing no accidents or problems and it received a score of 55 points out of an average rating of between 15-36 points so you know it has a great history as well. And being a true Florida car there is NO rust and even the underside still looks near new, even the original factory exhaust with dual chrome tips are still there and it great shape! The exterior looks wonderful with a deep Lincoln shine with no fade, dents, scrapes or rust. The factory aluminum wheels shine like new with no corrosion and there are near new matching Michelin tires that help give this Lincoln that smooth and quiet ride people have come to expect from these cars. Look close at the pictures and I promise you it looks every bit this nice in person. The interior too in in great shape with no stains, rips or odors and this is a non-smoker's car so it is still very fresh inside. The leather seats are very soft and show little wear, the back seat looks new! All the power options work fine including the ice cold air conditioning and 6- cd stereo with cassette that sounds wonderful. All the trim looks nice and everything has a garaged look and feel and there are no service lights on. What a pleasure to drive, so smooth and quiet and the nice Michelin tires really help. The peppy 32v V-8 engine runs smooth as silk and should with only 48k miles and will deliver decent gas mileage as well. The brakes are smooth as is the transmission and suspension with no shakes or rattles, just as you would expect from a well cared for 1-owner Florida car. It's not brand new of course but it's the nicest one I have seen in years and I am sure you will love it. It feels like your driving a classic already! I have great feedback so you can be sure that this vehicle will be just as nice as I am stating. Should you need help with shipping call me, if you decide to fly into Ft.Myers to pick it up in person I will meet you at our local airport right here in town. I know buying a vehicle you haven't driven is a little scary so I try to make it easy as well as fun!! As with all my vehicles, this one was put through a safety check to be sure it is safe and road worthy. This includes an oil change and an inspection of the brakes, belts, hoses, tires, fluid levels, etc. It's just one more thing I can do to make this a good experience for you. I encourge you to call with any questions @ 239-872-5281. Thanks!

LA Auto Show recap

J Mays retiring from Ford design, succeeded by Moray Callum

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Ford's highly influential head of design, J Mays, has announced that he'll be retiring from his position after 33 years in the industry, 16 of which were at the Dearborn, MI-based company. Upon departure, he'll be succeeded as group vice president of design by Moray Callum. If that last name sounds familiar, yes, he's the brother of Jaguar's Ian Callum.
It's difficult to explain just how big of a role Mays had on not just Ford's design over the years, but on the entire industry. Before heading to Dearborn, Mays worked for Audi, BMW and then Volkswagen, where he was involved in concept cars that paved the way for design icons like the first-generation Audi TT and the Volkswagen New Beetle. As for his Ford resume, it's extensive.
Mays joined the company in 1997 as design director for Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda, as well as the Premier Automotive Group (Volvo, Land Rover, Jaguar and Aston Martin). He was heavily involved in the Ford Fusion, Focus, Fiesta, Taurus, F-150 and Mustang, while also contributing to concept cars like the Atlas, Evos, 427, Forty-Nine, Shelby GR-1, Lincoln MKZ and the MKC.

Lincoln reveals MKC compact crossover ahead of LA debut [w/video]

Wed, 13 Nov 2013

It used to be that if you wanted a luxury SUV, you had to go big. Just look at the first high-riders released by some of the major luxury automakers - Audi Q7, Cadillac Escalade, Lexus LX - and you'll see what we mean. But since 2009 the small premium crossover segment has grown a whopping 200 percent, so it's no surprise that each has followed up with smaller luxury crossovers. And this is the latest.
At the other end of the utility spectrum from the Navigator, the new Lincoln MKC is based on the Ford Escape (much as the old pseudo-premium Mercury Mariner was), but completely rebodied and luxed up to put it in another league. Although we're still not sold on Lincoln's family fascia, the grille treatment on the MKC is certainly one of the better variations on the theme to date. The Dart-like rear lights dominate the wrap-around tailgate, and the overall shape looks taut and upscale. The same can be said of the dynamically-designed interior, taking the concept revealed in Detroit earlier this year to production fairly seamlessly.
Power will come from a choice of EcoBoost four-cylinder engines with turbocharging and direct injection: a 2.0-liter with 240 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque, or a slightly punchier new 2.3-liter with 275 hp and 300 lb-ft. Lincoln didn't disclose what transmission they'll be mated to, but did note that the MKC carries the brand's "signature" push-button gear shifter. It comes standard in front drive, but buyers who upgrade to all-wheel drive (or tick the right box) will also benefit from a new adaptive suspension Lincoln calls Continuously Controlled Damping. Other features include an approach-detection system that lights the car up and projects a Lincoln "welcome mat" on the pavement when you get close to the car, and a "bread-crumbing" feature that lets you track where your vehicle has been.
