1997 Lincoln Town Car Gold Package

Lincoln Town Car Gold Package (1997)
for sale

Price: US $5,000.00

Description:

I'm listing this for a neighbor because he doesn't have a computer and wants to find someone that will appreciate the near mint classic that is this Lincoln Town Car Cartier ed. He is the original owner, he and the car lived in Austin TX their whole lives, and has a clear TX blue title. Relisted lower reserve as he HAS to sell to pay urgent medical bills.
I can't believe this is a 1997. Looks new, smells new, like it's been in a time capsule. Original owner, garaged entire life, obviously only occasionally used. He says most miles are from when they drive from Austin to Dallas to see the family on holidays. Only 23949 miles at the time of listing. I couldn't find a single scrape, ding, dent, flake or scratch on this thing and if you check it's the Cartier edition, which is premium everything, with every option including power windows, locks, security system, premium stereo, power sunroof, gold package and burgundy vinyl top. The 6-way power seats are way thicker and more plush then even the premium leather seats in regular town cars and are super comfy. With only wear on the entire vehicle showing in a few wrinkles in drivers seat, as you can see in pics every other seat looks never sat in. Original rims, tires, spare never left the trunk, electric trunk latch. Overall, super classy 4 door luxury sedan.
Owner claims 20+ mpg city and over 26 on hwy, it's officially listed at 17/25. Dealer maintained, oil every 3k, all records as this is orig owner.
Never wrecked, curbed, etc.
Only issue the pics don't show is that I couldn't get the factory cd unit in the trunk to play a CD. I tested everything else and by looking at the pics you can tell this car was rarely used and well maintained. Rides and runs like a dream, starts right up, blows cold AC.
Any questions/offers ask and I'll get back to you-
