You guys are hilarious haha
I bought a continental reserve late last year, and I couldn't be happier with it.
I currently own a 2010 Lexus is 250. Not one complaint at all. But, i'm thinking on buying a 2017 continental. But my fear is that it won't last?
Pedro Saucedo well you’re lexus would out last it. but how much do you drive a year?
@@pedrosaucedo9200 the Lincoln company went up to 15 on CR reports for reliability they are right under audi now which is close to Nissan and Honda. So i doubt you have anything to really be afraid about. Ford has been building those EcoBoost engines for years I know f150s reaching 350,000kms so the 3.0 V6 turbo should be ok
@@pedrosaucedo9200 Lincoln has good longevity and reliability,no joke

When I was a kid in Chicago, you could tell a lot about someone by the car they drove. In the Fifties luxury cars were as follows, Episcopalians drove Packards, Presbyterians Drove Imperials, Catholics drove Lincolns and we had several, and everybody else drove Cadillacs. I worked for a Lincoln Mercury Dealership and certain cars sold to certain people. The Mustang sold to men, the Cougar to women.
Damn I guess I'm a woman. I've always wanted an XR7
Not anymore. Cant tell nothing
How about the blacks?
Daytona Says What?! After they moved from the back of the bus they started driving nissans. Or atleast that seems to be what many black people around Virginia drive
Hmmmn......in school they told me we were all exactly alike. I’ve been deceived by the system I trus.....No wait! I never trusted any teacher ,I knew they were lying
You forgot to mention that with the Black Label, you get their complimentary care service for 4 years. Basically, whereas every other car you have to bring the car into the dealership for service, Lincoln Black Label service will get staff to pick up your car from your home, and drop off a loaner car. They'll take your car to the dealer in for service and detail/car wash the vehicle before bringing it back in.
Skylar lol you did not buy much have you. I got that with my 2018 Camaro and 2018 impala too.... so what’s your point
Michel Linschoten < You did not English much, was you? It's still a nice feature.
It's also includes free maintenance for 2 years.. Which no, your impala did not come with. If you have it.
My Toyota Corolla does not have that,,, then again it does not require special service at all even after 300,000 miles :D

This car interior just outstanding
Something junk import companies should learn
@MGazT Jaguar is owned by Ford bud.
I finally bought a Black Label 2020 yesterday and I absolutely love it. It is pretty quick, it is incredibly comfortable, and it has a ton of space. Lincoln canceling this is an awful idea. What they needed to do it get it onto more of the Ford lots and have a 45k version of it. It would have sold gang-busters.
You bought one cool! How has it held up? Reliability, oil change cost, MPG?
And it’s pretty fast huh
@@landonc5355 we own a Lincoln continental reserve “1 trim under the black label” it’s very comfortable quiet cabin, mpg is great. It’s very luxurious and we love it!
They gotta make cheap junk
For someone who’s picky and tends to stay away from most American cars. Lincoln is far and away becoming arguably my favorite auto manufacturer with this new generation of vehicles. The black label interiors are beyond all the German and Japanese luxury automakers and are on about the level of range rovers but are more eye catching. Absolutely love them
Congrats...that's my dream car but the Black Labels are hard to find.
I’m glad there are still manufacturers who are building big luxury cars like this, I don’t think they all need to be sport luxury cars. In my opinion a luxury sedan is cooler then a luxury SUV.
Absolutely it is!
Can't agree more but the way its going sedans are dying with estates / staition wagons because everyone wants an suv or a cross over
@@danielallen839Sucks because I love wagons
Idea: you should add another stat to the dougscore - dougs per dollar (overall dougscore divided by price). That would be a great metric for putting the cars in context. The Lincoln isn't going to get the same score as a Rolls, but probably beats it on a per dollar standpoint. It would be interesting to see what would be at the top and bottom of such a list.
Second this
Damn, good idea
but the "value" score is dependent on price. in statistic, you cannot have a score dependent on x then categorized by x
This is exactly why the Doug score sucks a fat one. It would completely upend his rankings.
Ford fiesta st
The interior color is simply...
PIMPTASTIC!!!
My Dad just bought an '18 Continental, Reserve trim with 2.7L V-6 AWD. Although factory rated at 335 HP, I think this engine is underated like so many Fords from the past. This is an excellent torquey engine that moves this 4500 LB sedan with ease. Build quality is exceptional, just a really nice car, and he got it for 16K less than MSRP. Really nice Ford Car!!
How many miles and what trim?

As someone who drove one of these every day for 8-12 hours (as opposed to out and back on the dealer's driveway...), here's an addendum to what Doug said. Under all the fancy stuff, it's a Ford Fusion. The good: The AWD system is excellent and with the standard tires the car is well planted in bad weather, and has a surprising amount of grip in the dry, too. The base V6 should be plenty for almost everyone, and the brakes are face-pulling strong. The button shifter looks cool, but more importantly, it's fast and easy to use, which is great for when you're a working driver. Everyone loves the comfort of the rear seats. The standard audio system sounds nice and Sync for the most part works flawlessly. The driver's seat is very comfortable. Doug mocks the drive select system, but it's actually nice, because you can set "D" to have eco throttle response and soft suspension for customer comfort, but sport (firmer) steering. The rear running light bar looks like absolute sex, the unlock/lock effect on the running lights is really slickly done, and I think in general it's easily the most attractive car Ford has made in close to four decades; it lacks the...awkwardness...that so many Ford cars have, and I think in 10 years this car will probably still look good, whereas most ten year old fords are extremely dated.
The bad: the driver's area is...cramped, and I'm a pretty small person. The wood is overly glossy and the glossy clearcoat looks cheap as it wears a bit, and doug is right - they get really, really close to getting this all right, but the back panel controls in particular don't age well. The trunk isn't big; it's small compared to the 7-series, though not as small as the S90 (these are the three popular cars for fleet limos in our area.) The fancy door handles break in livery service, as does the trunk closing mechanism. Nobody knows how to get out of the cars (which is a plus in our circles, as it stops clients from opening their doors into traffic and such.) The base V6 drinks gas like crazy compared to much more fuel-efficient cars like the S90 (a car that makes the interior of the Continental look like a joke.)
There are, however, two big flaws: one is professional driver safety. Any time the doors are unlocked, even if someone is inside, the door buttons light up red. If anyone wants to rob you - limo drivers often do have a fair bit of cash on them - they have a nice handy indicator as to whether they doors are unlocked or not. The second biggest flaw is that the transmission in this car is HORRID. Customers like a smooth ride, right? Well, many times you'll be crawling in traffic on the highway and the transmission slam-shifts from 1st to 2nd with a big, violent lurch. Every single car I drove in the fleet did it.
It’s a Fusion underneath it all? I thought the MKZ was the Fusion counterpart?
I get that manufacturers have parts bins, I mean I have a Lexus LS (70+k car), and the rear vents are the exact same as a Corolla, but it’s still a Lexus.
How much of this Lincoln is a fusion?
It’s not a fusion inside bec😊its bigger
@@ahuman9864mkz is a taurus
I got a 2019 Lincoln mkz hybrid 2.0 liter its an awesome car. We took a road trip to Texas from California a total of 3200 miles. What an awesome economic car and extremely comfortable wow wow. I'm really happy with it
Does the noise when you accelerate hard drive you nuts? It's one of the things I hated about my old Camry Hybrid.
Surprised you didn't mention all of the Lincoln logo shaped patterns in the car. The seats, the grill, and those fancy headlights and fog lights.
It's because they weren't in the shape of hexagons, Hexagons, HEXAGONS, HeXaGoNs!!!!1!!

Sadly, everyone wants SUV’S
@@hertzair1186 I still don't understand that trend
@@huzzzer6083Me either, sedans still have value in the world in my opinion. I think it’s just so much of this desire to be higher off the ground and in part stuff for families but I still would take a sedan any day.

ForTehNguyen they’re the same company lol

They've been using that for decades. Surely the patent is expired by now.
Doug is a type of guy who wants car's seats to be both warm and cold at the same time.
TerveTerveTerve hey, I wish my car would let me do both. I was bummed when I realized it wouldn’t.
You can do it in the RR WRAITH, save your money up, it only cost a few 100 G’s lol.
I can do that in my 07 BMW 750Li it’s interesting
it actually make sense. You want your butt to be warm but at the same time dry.
I saw this car at the Atlanta auto show and boy was I impressed! It's definitely as good as a high end luxury sedan and should be treated as such.

Damn this is a good one
Lmaooooo you fukingg stupidd ass lmaoooooo

I like seeing an American luxury car maker rediscovering its roots.
I agree. In the early days the Lincoln was a high-end luxury automobile but by the 1980's this changed drastically when American cars were shrunk down to nothing with embarrassingly small motors. The Thunderbird was yet another prime example of this. In the early 70's my family had a 68 T-bird and they were very large, very heavy luxury cars with a 429 ci V8. In the 80's the T-bird was reduced to a boxy 4 cylinder POS and 14" wheels with only four lugs, which were typically only used in compact car designs.
@@johnhancock6114 that was because of the oil crisis and people wanted small efficient cars, this is where toyota shone and became a big automaker.
agree. too bad no one else does. they will be gone in a few years.
John Hancock The t-bird had a v8 and super charger models into the mid 90s. They also had 16 inch rims maybe 17 with 5 lug. Not sure what you’re point is.
This is a euphemism for old people don't want us anymore and neither do young people

I honestly don't want sedans to die :(
Me too, this is a very sad era for our favorite segment.
They will never truly die, Camrys and Accords aren't being phased out anytime soon.
I agree. If memory serves in 2017 2.1 million sedans were sold in the US. Why Ford would be so stupid as to completely walk away from a segment that still has millions upon millions of sales for the taking is beyond me. Especially when they have always been a solid contender. My 07 Focus went 10 yrs and 231k miles with no major issues and was still running great when I sold it. Now Ford is forcing me to change companies the next time I buy a car even though I wanted to be loyal to them. I've even seen Ford employees saying they will have to buy from other companies now that Ford has given up on sedans. An absolute shame.
Replace your battery every 3 years youll be fine.
@@dmax5678 Because they're dying, and the people at Ford probably want to lead whatever eventually replaces them, like electric crossovers.
Love how the grill is a bunch of lincoln logos
Yes, I love my new Lincoln! Magnificent automobile!. I'm so glad Lincoln has brought back traditional American luxury. I would have loved center opening doors though. I've been a long time Cadillac fan, but moved to Mercedes and Jaguar....also Bentley & Rolls, but very very satisfied with Lincoln smooth ride and comfort & quality and dependibility!- Greg in California

Doug is the type of guy to think Lincoln Continental is an interesting car to review because someone in Ford's Marketing department told that dealership to let him test drive one.

I like this car. I might shop some new wheels, but very attractive.
Wow i am sold on this car, it's beautiful
should have a green lock for unlock... would be much easier to see
I think it's smart, prowlers would easily see the car is unlocked but they might miss a red lock missing a small segment.
Seriously. They completely dropped the ball on that. That’s the one flaw I noticed. Otherwise, this thing rules.
If you bring up the Lincoln continentals trunk my mind always asks the question how many bodies you can fit into there

Fun Lincoln fact! When you're talking about the gear lever, it should be noted that when the car is warmed up/has been driving for a bit, the gear selector will not shift through every option to get from park to drive or vice versa. I don't know if it's just a cosmetic thing or if the transmission needs to warm up, but it's something to know nonetheless.
Very informative presentation. The outside door handles remind me of my grandfather's Packard Patrician.
Love that they included a cupholder in the engine cover 12:30. True American engineering right there

I have a 20 Continental Reserve AWD with the 2.7 V6 335hp. There are so many features and quirks you forgot to mention. Such as, how do you open the driver door if the battery is dead? Or, that the seat controls on the door are the same as the seat control on the dash. There’s a hidden cd player. How the car welcomes you with its lighting system when you approach the car. One aftermarket feature I added to mine, the front grille emblem lights up just like the newer Lincoln suvs.
Exceptional review! You didn’t miss a thing Hate they are no longer made but nice low mileage examples available
As a sound technician, I can see that that "demo" is actually a way for the system to recalibrate itself by "listening" to vibrations in the speakers, it recieves those different feed back vibrations that "bounce back"due to adjusted seats or different people in the car to know how to distribute sound, it'll move and adjust its frequencies and tones make the best quality music, that's actually an impressive feature to have.
Thanks for the info. It really is a great feature then.
If it was made up of one or more FM sweeps then I would agree. A music recording is a terrible signal source for calibration.
Briand Gaudet not necessarily, my mastering engineer listens to trusted recordings to reset his ears to make sure the last job didn’t “change” his perception. This is very similar concept.
Temperature, over time the speakers harden, leather hardens, foam degrades etc. Funny as the demographic of Lincoln is old people who generally cannot hear these nuances anyway.
DRIFTKING haha, great point
This is the issue with the Lincoln, THEY DIDN’T PUT SUICIDE DOORS ON IT.
Ya fair enough
I said the same thing the first time I saw one; a big opportunity missed. There's NO reason they couldn't do it.
I saw an article that talks about how Lincoln plans on doing it fairly soon. Lets pray
That's the least of it's problems. Unlike what everyone thinks, when people buy a 70k+ vehicle, they care about the fact that it's a fwd v6 enlarged fusion.
I agree
There is about 30 automatic features that are awesome you didn't touch on.
We have a '17 and the road driving features are amazing. Head lamps turn, wipers swipe just when you want them to, high beam auto is

You forgot about the built seat massage in the front and rear seats. You also didn't bother looking at the tablet included in the backseats.

Great review Doug. Watch you all the time. Calling it “a plain luxury car” is a little unfair thought. True it focuses on luxury mostly, but my ’18 2.7 dual turbo does 0-60 is 5.5 seconds. That’s Audi C7 territory. And it’s AWD.

Don't forget that you are paying 75000$ for this
Maybe he was in a 50 area drive to 40 area
Maybe it was 50 before the sign? I guess it take some moments for the gps to know you came into the 40 zone.
The speed limit sensor works just as "well" as any others. It's new and needs time and if this car was German you'd ignore it.

Love these things, just wish it had different tail lights, they seem oddly low to me. Love those door handles hidden in the chrome, that is clever.
That drive mode confusion is actually brilliant, you can choose sport but reduce the stiffness by selecting normal, mainly suspensions!
lincoln really needs to be appreciated. i love lincoln bt they are extremely underrated.
They sure are. Ford invested Billions into the Brand and they're made on a different assembly line. As well as having different Engineers.
They seem under-appreciated by even Ford. They had he limo/car service market locked up and then did away with the rear drive v8 models. Lincoln needs to make a rear drive v8 boxy towncar ala Rolls Royce. Who better than Lincoln? I still think the 80s and 90s towncars were iconic. Big, boxy and affordable.

He also didn't show you how when you are in the back seats, that the Right Rear seat can even move the Right Front seat up, to give the rear passenger more room. It also has both rear seats that recline. My version has REAR seats with heated/cooled/massaging seats! This car is elegant looking, has nice performance and a great ride. It is a mixture of plush and sporty, leaning more toward plush. I love it
The 1958 Mercury, Lincoln and Continental all had a 430 cubic inch V-8. Mercury had 360 HP and the others had 375 HP. There was also a 400 HP version of the same engine available on all three. The Lincolns and Continentals were huge and heavy but the 0-60 time was 8.7 seconds...
Doug gives himself a Doug score every day.
Doug is the type of guy that pays extra for ice cream cone sprinkles.
Jay Leno Roesthlisberger, you are my favorite reviewer of all time.
doug the type of guy who watches 6min youtube’s ad till finish
I’m here before the “Doug the type of guy comments”
I hate it.
@Hein I stated that already....
I actually like the fact that the Continental has subdued styling. It looks classy and not overbearing. It epitomizes the "stealth wealth" philosophy.
I’ve been shopping for a mid size/full size luxury sedan. The market right now is brutal. When comparing this vehicle to its competitors, it’s a no brainer. This is the best bang for your buck. I think I’ve found the one.
this styling is nice. its an eye catcher on the freeway. doug should score the styling at least a 7
Doug is the type of guy to look up the word "dictionary" in a dictionary
Flex Seal™ now that’s funny
Flex Seal™ whats a dictionary
@@captainfangle2245 look it up in a dictionary
Flex Seal™ ok
😂😂
Did you notice that doug never talks shit about a car if he got it from a dealer?
those GTs and AMGs wontpay for themselves
It's because the dealerships pay him. 😂
Yeah this Lincoln is quite a wet fart and he's calling it underrated lol. But we all know Doug is a shill, bought and paid for
@@yootoob6003
Why is it a wet fart?

Aside from brightness control, what other stuff? I presume the heated/cooled comment was a joke since no manufacturer allows that.
You gotta talk like Matthew McConaughey when you drive a Lincoln.
The driver door has the manual door release handle. While the 3 other doors get a secondary power for limited emergency use open and close the doors. And if the secondary power also fail, the 3 doors with not latch and can push open. And there is a way to latch the 3 doors by using the car key at the access points located at the outward side of each door, to secure the doors when needed.
Rolls Royce for ballers on a budget
Or if you don't wanna shed out 200k for the s class and roughly 150k for a caddie
@@ethanl440 There is no Cadillac today that sells for 150K.
Yeah, until you purchase one across seas, then the price tag will be ridiculous. It's cheaper because it's domestic
Curt Hominid not necessarily the case where I live (Kuwait). The surcharge is about $3-6K across all models and trims. I wouldn’t say that’s terrible at all.
@@AbdullahQ1993 It depends on how the country is taxing per luxury vehicle. Not all countries are the same when taxing
