Lincoln, the luxury marque of Ford is best-known for their Continental. Produced sporadically between 1939 and 2020, the Continental was their full-size luxury offering. It’s a large, opulent and decadent thing that unashamedly embodies the American spirit of excess. Today’s 1977 Lincoln Continental Mark V Cartier Designer Series comes from the fifth series, made between 1970 and 1977. It’s a perfect dictionary description of the popular term “Land Yacht”, and this 15,513-mile, all-original car from Toms River, New Jersey Is now up for sale. Plus, it’s a special edition trim level.
With its sleek white suit, hidden headlamps and sheer length of 233 inches, this 1977 Lincoln Continental Mark V Cartier Designer Series is not a car for the faint hearted. It’s a prominent thing that sports a sheer chrome grille, chromed bumpers and not-insignificant overhangs. The wheels feature shiny hubcaps as well, while the rear portion of the Landau vinyl-wrapped roof comes in burgundy for that contrast effect that luxury cars from the Seventies seemed to enjoy. Inside, you’ll find a white and burgundy two-tone color theme and some superbly padded seats waiting to swallow you up for those long cruises. This is a luxury car and everything is power-operated, including the windows, door locks and front seats. There’s a set of white-faced Cartier gauges, plenty of wood-effect trim, air conditioning with climate control and a stereo push-button radio. You’ve also got ash trays because it was very stylish back then to rock a lit cigar while driving along, emitting puffs of fragrant smoke from time to time. Ah, how things have changed since then. You’ve also got a suitably spacious trunk and a full-size spare wheel, making long trips a breeze.
With its mega 460ci V8, this 1977 Lincoln Continental Mark V Cartier Designer Series isn’t slow, but the engine was notably affected by the constraints of the Malaise Era. It’s paired with a 3-speed C6 automatic gearbox and powers the rear axle. You’ve also got power disc brakes and power steering, making this Land Yacht surprisingly easy to handle once you’ve gotten used to its size and overhangs.

If you're looking for a literal landyacht, then this could be it. The Lincoln Continental Mark V represented the height of American personal luxury in the late 1970s, combining immense size, distinctive styling, and a wealth of comfort features. This 1977 example, offered from Nevada, Missouri, is powered by a 400ci V8 paired to a C6 3-speed automatic transmission. Showing just 37,243 miles, it presents as a well-preserved classic, capturing the spirit of 1970s luxury motoring.
There was a time not too many years ago when the name of a Lincoln product told you what purpose it was built for and how and where you should use it. The Town Car nameplate is the best example of this. Before the stretch limo versions of the 2000s, this name was attached to Lincoln’s Continental line in the 1970s. Lincoln released the fifth generation Continental in 1970 and it would stay in production until 1970 with some year-by-year changes and a major facelift in 1975 (to differentiate itself from the new Mercury Grand Marquis that it shared many components with).

The Cadillac de Ville series is a full-size luxury car from Cadillac, made between 1958 and 2005 across eight generations. The term de Ville means “of the town”, indicating that Cadillac intended the model to become the talk of the town, literally. Offered in sedan, coupe and convertible forms, early generations are renowned for their flamboyant styling. Take this second generation 1963 Cadillac Coupe de Ville as a prime example. With a 390 under the hood and a lovely Nevada Silver paint job, this machine awaits a new owner in Santa Rosa, California. Grab it while you can because cars like this don’t stay on the market for long.
The prancing horse, or better yet known as Ferrari, has long been the purveyor of a car ownership experience that's unlike any out there. From its bedroom wall poster to clocking in rapid lap times worldwide, the Italian manufacturer is a true legend in the automotive world. While taking ownership of a Ferrari is a milestone in anyone's life, it does come with a tax - the actual cost of owning one and allowing it to clock in the miles and provide you with a good time on every drive out. Breaking through the matrix that is Ferrari ownership is otherworldly, but worry not: there is always a solution. Present today is this 1986 Ferrari Mondial Quattrovalvole. With a reported 24,000 miles on its clock, this is the answer to all your prancing horse problems and has always been labeled as a "usable" Ferrari.
Pontiac has always been a somewhat performance-oriented brand, even in dark times like the Malaise Era. Their Firebird muscle/pony car was severely strangled due to this dark time, but Pontiac cheerfully changed direction. Of course they kept the Firebird, but introduced something else too. This was the Fiero, made between 1984 and 1988. Unlike most other Pontiacs, the Fiero was a compact two-door sports car with a mid-mounted engine, composite body panels and an economical outlook. In subsequent times, Fieros found an unlikely purpose as the base of many faux Ferrari transformations. Thankfully, stock examples do remain, like this West Palm Beach-located 1988 Pontiac Fiero GT. It’s up for sale with under 69,000 miles on the clock, a 2.8-liter V6 in the rear, and an automatic gearbox. Contact us if you’d like to make it your own.
