car insurance
for it. 

Is the 2006 Lincoln Town Car a good car?

Retail price: $9,999 
Engine type: 239-horsepower, 4.6-liter V8
Fuel economy: 17 city/25 highway
Seating capacity: Six passengers
Trim levels: Signature, Designer, Signature L
The third generation of the Lincoln Town Car—which launched in 1997 and was manufactured through 2011—took a huge aesthetic turn from earlier generations. What is different about its look? Curves
Taking inspiration from European luxury brands at the time, Ford did away with the Town Car’s classic, straight-edged frame and opted for a curved and more aerodynamic body
While keeping rear-wheel drive, the third-generation Lincoln Town Car is upgraded with standard 16-inch wheels and a Modular V8 powertrain. And, of course, drivers will enjoy the six-passenger capacity. All in all, the 2006 Lincoln Town Car rivals most other four-door sedans. 
And don’t be fooled—even though it’s over 10 years old, the 2006 Lincoln Town Car was (and is) the epitome of luxury. The Signature (MSRP $42,055), Designer (MSRP $46,435), and Signature L (MSRP $50,525) all sold new for over $40K. 

How much should a 2006 Lincoln Town Car cost?

While the original MSRP of the 2006 Lincoln Town Car started at $42,055, a used 2006 Lincoln Town Car will cost you much less. 
Pricing used cars is tricky, since the cost will vary widely depending on the car’s mileage, condition, and seller. At the moment, Kelley Blue Book doesn’t have an estimated market price for a used 2006 Lincoln Town Car.
But based on the used car market today, a 2006 Lincoln Town Car Signature with 100,000 miles will likely cost around $9,000–$13,000. Higher trim levels will probably cost more than lower trim levels, but you could pay a few thousand less if you opt for a 2006 Lincoln Town Car with more miles on it.
Key Takeaway Expect to pay $9,000+ for a used 2006 Lincoln Town Car.

We also recommend checking out your local
Craigslist

Going to check out a used 2006 Lincoln Town Car? Here are some of our favorite tips for buying a used car:
  • Go in with a plan. Have a budget in mind, and have a number you plan to negotiate. 
  • Negotiate! Never agree to a listing price from an individual seller without asking if they’ll budge. This one comes with a caveat, though—if you’re buying from a seller who doesn’t know their car is gold and is selling it for a shockingly low price, you might want to skip the bargaining. Otherwise, you could risk a seller who backs out of the deal.
  • Bring a friend and test drive. Don’t know cars? Bring a friend who does and can look over the car and engine for you. And never buy a car without test driving it first!

This app is great, but the customer service is even better! Not to mention convenient! My husband and I got the lowest rate (much lower than the rates I was finding online through my own searches), quickly, and pretty much all through text message! Thank you so much for a hassle free experience👍
