    2003 Lincoln Town Car Terminator review! The 2003 Lincoln Town Car looks like a regular Town Car -- but it's a LOT more special than that. This Town Car has a Ford Mustang Terminator Cobra engine swap, and it's truly amazing -- and I'm going to show you all the quirks and features. I'm also going to drive the "Terminator Town Car" and review what it's like behind the wheel.

      On the one hand, he's promoting his website. On the other, his product is good. I find his reviews fun. He's playing the capitalism game brilliantly and I say good for him! It's kinda like Amazon. I think he Bezos should pay his workers more but I can't stop ordering from them. Amazon is just SOOOO damn convenient.

    GrandPah here. Trunk lid pull downs have been around since the 1960's at least. I'm also a proud owner of a 2003 Town Car Signature series model with the 4.6 engine. I had my engine modified to around 400 hp and 395 ft lb's of torque. I am having the leather seats in the front recovered and the pull handles in the front replaced. When done she will look brand new. Already had the body fully sanded down and repainted and replaced all the chrome. She is a looker for sure. Don't have 500HP but she will jerk a knot in your neck when you floor it.

    Doug ,thank you for reviewing this car combined with your giddy reaction to the torque experience since my grandmother's 69 455 powered buick wildcat. No disappointments. Americans have forgotten what getting put back in the seat upon acceleration is.like liftoff of a old school commercial aircraft . Love it. Great review.

    Having driven as a chauffeur for 25 years, the last five years also doubling as a mechanic I can tell you for a surety that the Lincoln town car is a wonderful vehicle without any modifications at all. And at 68 years of age, I really enjoy the comfort that the town car gives me. I am so looking forward to purchasing my third, hopefully my last.

    Man that whine sure brings back memories of my old Marauder with the Trilogy set up I originally had before I ultimately went overboard with a Terminator block/Fl-A ProCharger/6 speed manual (as seen on my channel) Hands down insane fun but after 17+ years it was finally time to pass the torch and continue on my bucket list of cars.

    19:20 It is mentioned the soft close trunk would be “cutting edge” in 2003. Many cars much older than this had this feature as standard. All of my 70s, 80s, and 90s Cadillacs do, for instance.

    • @musicauthority9939
      @musicauthority9939 Год назад +1

      My best friend had a 1978 Cadillac Seville, that had the soft touch trunk lid feature. and there were several Lincoln and Mercury models that also had it. many years before that, if I remember rightly my aunt and uncle. had a late seventies Mercury Marquis that had it.

    • @rattletrap1
      @rattletrap1 Год назад

      88 Mark VIII had it. 88 Turbocoupe didn't even have the option. Hardly 'cutting edge' in 03 though.

    It's about freakin' time you're reviewing a modified car! For the record, a soft closing trunk is hardly groundbreaking for 2003. The Pontiac Trans Am GTA had the same soft closing hatch feature way back in 1987.

    Bought a new 1999 white metallic Town car touring sedan, had white leather interior, chrome wheels, black wall tires. Dual exhaust, white trim versus chrome and a smaller torque converter from the factory. Not a muscle car, but it worked for our family. Sold it privately and bought a 2007 Lexus ES350.

    I own a 07 Town Car Executive L Series with 430,000 miles with a blown head gasket. If I had the budget I would go this route. Swapping a modern Coyote engine and of course beefing up the transmission, suspension, with 4 corner air bags and keeping it as stock looking as possible. A far out more idea would be to have the interior of the modern Continental with suicide doors and back seats reclining.

    Doug, you should review Brian's car from the Watches and Wheels channel. He has a 2nd generation Toyota Supra that he swapped the later turbo engine into and it looks like a factory installation. He has also put a Lexus V8 into a Miata before so he is no novice.

  • @rootsmanuva82

    Okay. I was just going to take a minute to remind you that most cars have a handle on the doors in order to close them. Also, it's a great feature for humans of all ages in life. Hopefully you'll recognize the benefits of getting old when you compare it to risks of staying at your present age.
    Now that I have given away my age with my old man advice, I have to replay the video (once again) just to see your reaction to that great sound of the supercharger as you haul ass in a 2000's era Lincoln!
    Carry on, son. But please drive safely!
