    Not this time. The quiet, disconnected driving experience is the allure. It gets left stock except for the sound system. Likely navigation, rear camera, and speaker/sub upgrade.

    Great find!!! I forget that I look 110 years old whenever I'm in my Lincoln, but I must be getting a bit older because as you mention sometimes its just so nice to drive in a car that feels like a sofa on a cloud without any noise.

    As previously noted in a longer thread, I recieved a brand new TC as a rental, after snotty rich neighbor punk kid wrecked into my Mercedes 18 years ago.

    Dead summer hear 110 degrees, pregnant wife, we simply loaded the boat with supplies on nights and weekends, and slowly cruised all over NorCal for 35 days w set climate control at 68. It saved us that summer, and I hated to return that car.

    Always wanted one since then. With the mods FW Linc/Merc has done... I'd buy one now in an instant.
