Lincoln’s famous Town Car is well-known for its starring role in countless movies and TV shows. Introduced in 1980, the Town Car was made across three generations until 2011. The third generation of 1998 to 2011 is arguably the most famous one, as it’s the one that springs to mind when one thinks of a Town Car. Today, we’ve got a Town Car for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. Specifically, a super-low mileage 2003 Lincoln Town Car Cartier Edition with a mere 19,753 miles on its odometer. You’d better act fast, then.
The styling of the third generation Town Car has become a cult favorite today, even though the car itself isn’t that old. The oldest examples aren’t even three decades of age! However, the long profile of the car, coupled with its chrome grille, long doors, simple silver alloy wheels and lengthy trunk lid profile make for something that’s iconic and instantly recognizable. The interior of this 2003 Lincoln Town Car Cartier Edition comes in greyish beige, with plush, leather upholstered seats and ample space for five adults. Yes, the Town Car is spacious, due to it being a full-size sedan. This example sports many luxury fittings, such as wood interior accents, automatic dual-zone climate control with air conditioning, cruise control, a multifunction steering wheel, power door locks, power windows and power mirrors. You’ve also got an Alpine head unit with in-dash CD and cassette tape players. Plus, since this is a Cartier Edition, there’s a Cartier-branded analog clock right in the center of the dashboard bisecting the central air vents. As for the trunk, well, it’s roomy to say the least, but then you’d expect nothing less given the sheer size of the car.
Swing the column shifter for the car’s 4-speed automatic transmission into Drive, boot the throttle and the rear wheels will squeal. Yes, this 2003 Lincoln Town Car Cartier Edition may be large but it’s got a 4.6-liter Modular V8 doing the propelling. With a reported 239hp on tap, horsepower output might not be headlining, but the 287lb-ft of torque really helps. All-round disc brakes with power assistance and power steering are present too, for an easy-driving experience.

Stretch limousines come in many forms: Hummers, Escalades, Chrysler 300s, and even Ford Excursions. But none are as iconic or as popular as the Lincoln Town Car. Introduced in 1998, the third-generation Town Car was the top-of-the-line model of the massively successful Panther platform Fords that dominated North America from the late '90s all the way to the early 2010s. Its lower-priced cousin, the Crown Victoria, is most commonly associated with taxi cabs and police fleets, and the more expensive Mercury Grand Marquis was popular as a personal luxury car. The Lincoln, on the other hand, was always a luxury cruiser, and it’s no surprise that it became such a popular model to convert into a stretch limo. Even in its factory form, the Town Car was everything a luxury limo was supposed to be. It had a comfortable ride, a traditional leather and wood trim interior, and an imperious profile with the Lincoln hood ornament at the front. In fact, when the third-generation Town Car went out of production in 2011, it heralded the end of the traditional body-on-frame luxury American car.
During the ‘80s, the Town Car was a trim level that signified the most luxurious and the most expensive version of the Lincoln Continental. It was then spun off to be its own model, and it was a traditional American luxury sedan in the truest sense. The focus was not to make a thrilling driving experience but to create a big sedan that was as comfortable and as smooth as possible. When the model was withdrawn, it marked the end of an era for large V8, full-size, rear-wheel drive, body-on-frame American luxury sedans that were once common. This makes this 2011 Lincoln Town Car Signature Limited model a rare vehicle you can own today. Located in Nevada, this car is available for sale with 30,000 miles on its clock.
The late 40s saw a resurgence in the American luxury car market that had almost died completely thanks to more than a decade of economic depression and World War. The post-war boom brought a wave of Cadillacs, Packards, and Lincolns re-entering the market. For the first few years after the war, most cars (especially the more expensive ones like the Lincoln Continentals) were largely similar to the pre-war models. This was due to civilian automobile production being paused after Pearl Harbor (and America’s subsequent direct involvement in WWII). In this case, the first-generation Continental had only been in production for a couple of years before being put on hold. They were offered only in 2-door form, as either a coupe or a convertible. Several changes were made when production was resumed in 1946, the most prominent being the “Zephyr” name being removed from Lincoln-Zephyr. This production run would last only a few years as well, ending in 1948. The 1949 Continental would be a fancier Mercury and not quite the expensive and exclusive personal-luxury vehicle that its predecessor was.
