That 88 Lincoln Town Car though...

I am in love. I think it needs a set a wires, though.

If it were a '77 or '78, and the wheels/tires were about -3 fitment from these, I'd call it perfect. It's really damn good as-is though.

Dude. Put nsfw before you post that kinda porn.

I owned a stock Cartier 1987 town car I bought used from my dad for $1,500. The leather seats were like butter. That one is wild.

How was the town car not mentioned in my what 1987, RWD, bench seat, column shift thread?

I had a 87. It was probably one of my all time favorite cars. The ultimate highway cruiser. I still regularly search for them on CL. Most are beat to death by now.

I suddenly want a Town Car

Those wheels actually look decent. I'll take it as it.

Hell, it has Vogues, I berkeleying hate Vogues.

Badass.

Oh my god. Send cleanup to aisle pants, and someone to calm down my racing heart. This is very, very strong automotive pornography, the type that makes you need a smoke after you see it, even if you don't smoke. Holy Berkeley. I need a moment.

You guys are sad, lonely old men with a weird fetish.

Not quite. I don't think any of us are Hugh Hefner.

It's on air bags, so the stance change is just a push of a button away.

I don't think Hugh is lonely, and if surrounding yourself with beautiful naked women is a fetish, well...

That Lincoln is his idea of cool, though.

Does an air ride equipped car like that still have a nice ride? Or is it jarring and E36 M3ty?

The crappy rubber band tires will kill the ride as much as anything. If it was me buying it, I'd go back to stock wheels, tires and springs.

stock rims for me.. or even something classy from one of Ford's other offerings. I always liked the cross-spokes some Lincoln models had

With those wheels and tires, and the broken suspension stance, it's really awful.

Hugh has a fetish for hot young women, explain the weird in that to me?

This thing is kinda cool, but I'd rock it more on stock widened wheels. I borking hate big wheels on old cars. Give me side wall or give me dented RiMz

I should not have searched Craigslist for "Town Car."

Who needs a Mustang v6 when you can get a 460 v8 for less than a third the price.

Boy that makes me miss mine. I'd have another if the opportunity arose. But this one was immaculate and $500 and I can't find that deal again.

It's not the hot young women, it's the whole overtly-materialistic and obscenely opulent lifestyle, as well as the whole objectification of women thing. I just find it all a bit strange.

I much prefer the wheels on the black one to the stock ones. Although I would prefer them in a 17" size. The only thing I'm not sure about is the air ride. Having never ridden in a car so equipped it would be a concern as to if it would have terrible ride quality. As for looks, they nailed it.
