2007 Lincoln Town Car: Overview

Vehicle Highlights

Town Car is the only American-brand premium large sedan with rear-wheel drive. It comes in Signature, Signature Limited, and Designer Series models, plus a limousine-like Signature L with a 6-inch-longer wheelbase for more rear leg room. All use a 239-hp V8 and 4-speed automatic transmission. ABS, traction control, and front side airbags are standard, but no antiskid system is available. Neither are rear airbags nor curtain side airbags. Standard features include power-adjustable pedals, dual-zone climate control, front bench seat, and leather upholstery. Among the few options are xenon headlamps and a navigation system.
