Hey guys I have only been with you for a short while and I do love my lincoln but I just came across a deal I cannot pass up on a 96 Continental with SUPER low miles.I can only afford to drive one car and my truck.My Mark is a 93 with 138K.Clean title,No rust.Decent interior has one rip on the drivers seat.Paint is glossy and nice.It has 3 dents.Small but they are there.The car has had almost the entire front end done.Bearings,BallJoints,Tie rods,brakes front and rear.I just had the oil filter adapter gasket replaced and it is leak free.It has a VERY small trans shudder every great while.The fluid is clean but if I keep it I am getting it flushed with Mercon V.The shudder doesnt bother me because it rarely happens.I just put a Pioneer CD player in it.Tires are 95% thread.Its green and drives pretty nice.No smoke or leaks anywhere.Air ride works perfect.There is a little bit of noise from the front sway bar links.Gets annoying at times,Just havent had time to change it.Im just wondering what a fair price to ask for it is?Here is a pic it was pretty dirty in this pic.

Welcome Aboard The Conti Express Glad to Have ya ;)
 
hey thanks guys,and thanks for the support pepperman.lol I will be making my decision tommorrow and being it may need a trans purge down the road I will be asking 1850 Firm on it.I will post it with much better cleaner pics if I do decide to let her go.:L
 
I'd say between 2-2.5 grand depending on your area. Because the front end has been rebuilt, and you say the air ride works fine, plus good tires.
 
hahaha.I will be making my mind up today I love the car I really do.But I fell into a 96 Continental loaded with every option with 57K for under 2 Grand.Not telling you exactly how much:cool: Clean title one owner grandma car who can no longer drive.Its such a crazy deal I almost feel bad.:shifty: NA.lol Thanks again for all your input guys.As for smoking a V6 mustang with a 96 conti?I dunno I think it would be easy


When I take better pics of my mark and people see how nice it is I think for 1850 it will be gone real quick.WIll post it for sale thursday if I am going that route.
 
I think it would be fair if you just drove it 2 my house, and handed my the keys as well as the title. j\k

Around here that car would go for $1500-2k

$1500-$2000 is a realistic amount.

With the shudder and little quirks I would say not more than $2000.

Your best bet to getting more is eBay and sell as is. But with people who know the Mark VIII. You won't get much more than $2000.
 
Yea Im not interested in getting more then 1900 for it,1850 will be my bottom dollar.I will post some pics of it in a little while.Thanks
 
If everyone parts out their mark VIII's there wont be any left!
 
This car will never be parted out as long as I own it.Its Blasphemy!!It will be for sale Thursday.Pics coming tommorrow
 
I was actually going to sell my 93. But I decided $3500 wasn't enough. My 93 only has 50K on it. Unusual for most Marks. I wouldn' go less than $5K.
