      True story: My first car in high school was an 88 Town Car. Loved that thing. Because me and my friends were all poor kids, I once snuck 6 of my friends into a drive in movie. I bought two tickets for me and my buddy in the front seat and snuck SIX 16 year old kids in in the trunk. The tiny 90lb girl, who for whatever reason decided to volunteer to climb in the trunk first, was NOT happy when we got everyone in, as she had 5 kids laying on top of her. In a dark space. Good times.

    Before you all laugh at the Town Car’s relatively low power output considering its 4.6 litre engine displacement and make some comment about your lawnmower making more power per litre, what you need to understand is this: the Town Car isn’t about speed or horsepower or quarter mile times. It’s all about delivering a smooth, comfortable and luxurious ride at any speed, and the Town Car delivers this in spades. It’s because of this that I like to think of the Town Car as a ‘poor man’s Mercedes S-Class’.
    This also applies to the Town Car’s sister cars, the Ford Crown Victoria & the Mercury Grand Marquis.
    Not only that, but because of the body-on-frame design, relatively simple mechanics and the fact that the Town Car’s V8 engine is massively under-stressed, the Town Car, along with its aforementioned Ford and Mercury sister cars, is notoriously reliable - one Town Car featured on Scotty Kilmer’s ‘Show-Off Sunday’ series on CZcams had done 486,000 miles (486,609 miles, to be exact) at the time of filming.

So, naturally, American cars with big engines were far more expensive to maintain because the tax pay is few times higher than other Japanese counterparts. That tax is why Mazda decided to invest in rotary engines for sportscar, so it can have smaller displacement engine with more power.

As a result of the purchase, Collins and Aikman “cooked” their books to make it look like the had more cash on hand. The S.E.C. brought charges on Collins and Aikman for that “ action “. There were 29 plants, and all closed. At the time, my plant had 550 hourly employees. All of this did happen at the start of the recession. We also made door panels for the C5 and C6 Corvettes also.

      Did they ever reinforce the later Town Car door panels at the inside door handle where the plastic breaks and causes it to get stuck? I had to replace a whole panel for that reason. I couldn't use the Dorman fix bc it's only for cars without memory seat and heated seat switches.

    Let's be honest, no one is EVER going to sit in the middle seat in the back of that car, so a one-piece rear floor mat does nothing useful. In fact, it makes cleaning the car that much more inconvenient because instead of carefully lifting one mat out of each side without spilling any of the accumulated dirt on the clean carpet below as you do so, you have to wrestle a floppy anaconda across the car and out one side, spilling all of that dirt onto your carpet along the way. I'm a professional detailer. I have a lot of time to dwell on little things like this.

    Fun review! Middle aged Gen X here. Have owned and/or regularly driven all the "panther" platform cars. If you drive a lot, especially highway miles, and comfort during a commute becomes a quality of life issue for you, there is no beating a town car. They were fleet cars for a reason (reliable, low relative maintenance cost and longevity). Oh yeah, they're built very solidly and hold up well in car crashes. If you're going to buy one, look at 2003-2011 model years. You can still get a well preserved examples with lots of life left in them. If you can't find one, look at a highly optioned Mercury Grand Marquis, it's not a town car, but comes close. If you're willing to travel to score one...start your search in Florida. Oh yeah, if you get one, (any panther platform car, in fact) and it's in good enough condition to justify spending a little money on, upgrade the rear differential to a locking differential. (and if you really want to splurge, upgrade to 4:10 gears). Enjoy!
