You are bidding on an extremely rare 2001 Lincoln LS with the seldomly seen Getrag manual transmission.  I am the second owner having purchased it in December of 2001 when it had only 15K miles on the odometer.  The car was garage kept up until August of 2011 when I relocated with my job to California.  The strong sun of Southern California has caused the clear coat to start to fail in certain spots which I detailed in the pictures.  The car runs and drives exceptionally well.  The throwout bearing failed at 121K miles and I replaced the clutch, pressure plate and had the flywheel resurfaced at this time which was a very expensive repair due to the scarcity of the parts.  The Getrag shifts smoothly with a short throw and the car handles extremely well thanks the optional "Euro Sport" suspension option it has.

The tires have plenty of life and show no signs of cupping or uneven wear.  I have used only Mobil-1 synthetic oil in the car since I purchased it and the engine runs perfectly and consumes no oil.  I had a hard-wire installation so you can plug your iPhone directly into the factory Alpine stereo. The only issues with the car are the check engine light flickers on and off as does the air bag light.  The car did pass the extra strict California emissions standards this year with zero issues.  Also, the horn and windshield squirters are not working.  The car is being sold as-is, with no warranties expressed or implied.

I will be listing this car locally as well and will reserve the right to end the auction early should I find a local buyer.

Ford recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models

Fri, 30 Aug 2013

The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.

GM design boss Welburn says Lincoln isn't a Cadillac rival [w/poll]

Thu, 05 Dec 2013

General Motors Vice President of Global Design, Ed Welburn, had some dismissive words for a certain cross-town luxury brand during an interview with Car and Driver. When asked about his thoughts on Lincoln, Welburn deflected, before saying, "I don't consider Lincoln to be a competitor for Cadillac."
"They're not a global luxury brand. I don't consider them a competitor. Are they a competitor for Buick? Quite possibly. But not for Cadillac," GM's head designer explained. Welburn, who's been at the helm of GM Design North America since 2003 and is the first to hold the position of VP of Global Design, has been instrumental in the styling renaissance at GM, so predictably, Car and Driver's interview with him focused on the design aspect of cars.
During the interview, Welburn explicitly denied plans for a reborn Cadillac XLR, even as a new Chevrolet Corvette is hitting the market and strides are being made with Cadillac's V-Series performance arm saying, "We have a lot of cars that we're working on for the Cadillac brand. The XLR is not one of them right now."
