While my 87 Town Car was being repaired at a Lincoln dealer, they let me use a 2007 Town Car for the 2 days. I was surprised and disappointed in the 2007 model.
The new Town Car had a very stiff uncomfortable (lumber wagon) ride. More like I would expect from a Mustang with a racing suspension. Apparently they put some sort of noisy sound enhancing muffler on it. You barely touch the gas pedal and it jumps. The steering was very jerky making it hard to make smooth turns.
A 1987 Town Car rides so much smoother and quieter. It pretty much floats during acceleration, driving and breaking. Now I know why several people with new Town Cars have jokingly said they would trade cars with me.
Are there any smooth riding luxury american cars being built? Has Cadillac also gone to the lumber wagon suspension?
