Debuting on the screen in “Mayor of Kingstown” is a surprising choice of wheels: a 1998 Lincoln Town Car. The show’s unconventional power broker, Mike McLusky, navigates his world in this vintage luxury sedan.
Interestingly, the third-generation Town Car (1998-2002) boasts a dedicated following beyond the fictional. This iteration saw the car grow in size compared to its predecessor, yet it maintained a loyal fanbase despite a platform update from Ford in 2003.
Reflecting this enduring appreciation, a recent auction saw a mint-condition 1998 Signature Series Town Car fetch a price of $19,250 surprisingly close to the starting MSRP of a brand-new Kia Forte.
This specific car sports a unique Medium Charcoal Blue Clearcoat Metallic exterior (a departure from the show’s black Town Car) and rolls on stylish 16-inch Snowflake alloy wheels.
Dark Denim Blue leather seats with power adjustability provide a comfortable and sophisticated feel. Woodgrain accents on the dashboard and door panels add a touch of classic elegance.
For comfort and convenience, features like automatic climate control, cruise control, a cassette stereo, power windows, and locks are all present. The Town Car’s iconic multi-function steering wheel adds a timeless design element to the driver’s cockpit.
