If the '97 ever gets retired, I'm going one of two ways: 1990-1994 Town Car or 2003+ Town Car. It only seems right to go up market from here. The options, upscale packaging, styling, and comfort is what really draws me towards Town Cars.
You got a killer looking car. Are there any upcoming plans or will it ride as is?

06+ is the way to go. I was looking for 06-08 since they were the most optioned.
Thanks
I'm going to try not to mess with this one but we'll see. I'll probably throw the 18" Mustang wheels on it this weekend.
I added a ford posi carrier, a bigger addco rear sway and cooper zeon rs3-a tires bar to my 08. All well worth it and the car still rides like it should while handling better.
Also the 08 style single panel sun visor vanity mirror flap hinges were broken. Replaced the whole setup with salvaged older two panel style visors. They match the interior perfectly and offer two panels as well as a better quality vanity mirror door.

Thanks. I'm hoping to keep this one around for a while.
Might as well update. Haven't done too much.
- Installed the Mustang wheels. (2010 Mustang Premium)
- Installed 4 Lincoln Center Caps 8A53-1A096-AD ( Break 1 tab for easier install )
- Installed Mach 1 chin spoiler, 4 tone Caddi horns, 03 engine cover
- Installed and wired to switched power the Satellite radio and FM transmitter.
- All fluids and filters changed.
Had a custom front license plate made for it.
Next priority is to figure out if I can use a P71 computer and airbox/MAF for more power.
