Many thanks to Hans for bringing this car to my attention this morning. Would normally wait for photos (and will update when available) but this unicorn may not be around that long. And I don’t quite get it, but when I post about Ford-Lincoln-Mercury Panther line cars readers go batshit. My blog stats skyrocket, especially when linked to David Fesz’s Unique Cars 2.0 Facebook page (check it out). This post on the final year cars is unmatched. The Panther line hadn’t been updated in years and expired in 2011. The V-8 makes four cylinder power and six cylinder torque. But is has a bench seat and folks love it as a comfortable, reliable highway cruiser. Here’s why this one rocks:
Only 16,000 miles in eleven years! And it’s less than $16,000. The car sold new for almost $30,000.

Not sure MaxCare is even needed given this car’s bullet proof history, but why not? Here’s the cost and coverage options for this car:
Again, a borrowed photo until the real ones are available but suspect it looks like this inside. Gold over tan car, with golf clubs in the trunk and blazers hanging from a rear seat coat hook bar would make me feel so retired. Here’s the link to this two owner, accident free family sedan currently in Knoxville, Tennessee. Enjoy.
