2017 Lincoln Continental Used Price Estimates

The last time a new Lincoln Continental graced dealership lots, the large sedan was equipped with a four-speed automatic transmission and a CD player was an optional upgrade over a cassette deck. To misquote Dylan, the times, they have a-changed. The 2017 Lincoln Continental is a completely different beast, with no fewer than three engines available (each matched to a six-speed automatic) and the latest smartphone tech such as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

But the new Continental isn't just about showing up its 15-year-old predecessor; it's about bringing something unique to the luxury full-size sedan segment: value. Rivals including the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and BMW 7 Series have long ruled this class, although they cost more than double the Continental's starting price. Even budget-conscious newcomers such as the Kia K900 and Genesis G90 are more expensive than the Lincoln. So this new Lincoln provides a tremendous value, even if you get a fully loaded version with all the bells and whistles. If you're in the market for a roomy sedan with a handsome interior that looks like $ 100,000 (and doesn't cost it), the 2017 Lincoln Continental is certainly worth a look.

The 2017 Lincoln Continental is a large sedan that offers a lot of the same technology and luxury features you'd get from a high-end car such as the Mercedes-Benz S-Class or BMW 7 Series, but at a much lower price. It all starts with the well-equipped Premier model, followed closely by the Select, which adds a ton of features for a modest price bump. It also opens the gates to several feature packages not available on the Premier. The Reserve includes more goodies, followed by the exclusive Black Label, which costs considerably more but grants access to Lincoln's Black Label concierge program.

The base Premier trim is powered by a 3.7-liter V6 (305 horsepower, 280 pound-feet) matched to a six-speed automatic transmission with steering-wheel-mounted paddle shifters. Its standard features include 18-inch alloy wheels, adaptive xenon headlights, LED running lights and taillights, remote engine start, power-folding and heated mirrors with integrated blind-spot sections and puddle lamps, adjustable dampers, a rearview camera, front and rear parking sensors, keyless entry and ignition, an auto-dimming driver mirror, chrome exterior trim, active grille shutters, interior ambient lighting, dual-zone automatic climate control, 10-way power-adjustable and heated front seats, a power-adjustable leather-wrapped steering wheel, driver-seat memory settings and rear air vents. Entertainment features include an 8-inch touchscreen with the Sync 3 infotainment system, Bluetooth, and a 10-speaker audio system with two USB ports and satellite radio.

Stepping up to the Select trim adds 19-inch wheels, soft-close doors, power-folding exterior mirrors, hands-free trunk opening, illuminated sill plates, leather upholstery, wood accents on the steering wheel, two rear charge-only USB ports and a 110-volt household-style outlet. Choosing the Select also opens the door to the optional twin-turbo 2.7-liter V6 engine (335 hp, 380 lb-ft).

The 2.7-liter engine is standard on the Reserve, as are 24-way power-adjustable and ventilated front seats, tri-zone automatic climate control, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, navigation, a rear power sunshade, and an embedded modem that allows users to control various aspects of their Continental via the Lincoln Way smartphone app.

The range-topping Black Label takes the Continental over the top with 20-inch wheels, LED headlights, simulated-suede headliner, upgraded leather upholstery, a heated steering wheel, power-adjustable rear seats, and a 19-speaker Revel Ultima sound system with a CD player and HD radio. It's available in three distinct palettes (Rhapsody, Chalet and Thoroughbred), each of which modify the Continental's exterior and interior color schemes and trim. It also allows access to Lincoln's Black Label member privileges.

For those who want as much power as the Continental has to offer, the Reserve and Black Label offer an optional twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 (400 hp, 400 lb-ft). Summer performance tires are available with this engine.

There are several options packages that add extra features to the Continental. The Climate package (Select, Reserve and Black Label) adds automatic high beams, automatic wipers, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a heated steering wheel and heated rear seats. The Technology package (Select with 2.7-liter engine, Reserve and Black Label) includes a 360-degree parking camera, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, automatic wipers, adaptive cruise control, an automated parking system, lane keeping assist with mitigation, and a pre-collision warning system with pedestrian detection and automatic emergency braking. The Rear Seat package (Reserve and Black Label) includes a 40/20/40-split rear seat with reclining, heated and ventilated outboard seats with four-way power lumbar adjustment, inflatable rear outboard seat belts, a panoramic sunroof and rear-side sunshades. The Reserve's Luxury package includes the LED headlights and Revel sound system.

Some features are available as individual options depending on trim, including 20-inch wheels, the sunroof, the Revel sound system and 30-way-adjustable seats with a massaging function.

The new Continental has more than a familiar name. If you ever rode in a past version, you may remember its ride as being cushy or even floaty. That quality remains, which is good news if you're looking for a big, comfortable sedan. The Continental is also appreciably quiet most of the time, the caveat being that road noise intruded into our otherwise serene experience on stretches of rough road. Power is plentiful, especially if you pony up for the 400-horsepower 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6. But the power distribution in that top-end engine didn't feel uniform or linear, especially at lower speeds. The Continental is best for long and straight highway runs. The Continental has a Sport mode that livens the steering, suspension and throttle response, but the Lincoln isn't very satisfying when treated as a sports sedan.

REVEL AUDIO SYSTEMThis premium audio system from Harman is available in two forms in the Continental, with 13 speakers or the 19-speaker Revel Ultima. Go with the top one and you'll be enveloped in crisp, precise, thundering audio bliss.MASSAGING SEATSLincoln has trumpeted much about the Continental's 30-way-adjustable front seats, but an aspect we like even more is their massage function. Activate and you'll get a thorough working on your back and rump. It's gratifying and even ostentatious, but relaxing all the same.

The 2017 Lincoln Continental has a roomy 5-passenger interior that more or less is well executed. On the "more" side are very comfortable front seats available with 10-, 24- or 30-way adjustment. And we do love the massage functionality (see above). Most controls are easy to see and use, and are button-intensive down to the transmission (press “P” for Park, “D” for Drive, etc.). On the "less" side, plastic bits are unfortunately intertwined with otherwise good-quality leather, such as in the rear-seat armrest. A CD player is available, but hidden below a center console door near the USB inputs.

The Lincoln Continental looks expensive. There's good reason why: Just take in that shiny honeycomb grille, the bulging hood, sleek sides and tapered rear. Its size itself makes a statement, living large at over 201 inches in length. Among the Continental's most notable design elements are the E-latch electronic door handles, situated in the beltline just below the windows and sitting stationary. Rather than pulling them, you simply reach and press a button to open. Optional is a feature that gently opens and closes the doors -- just like on a Rolls-Royce!

The 2017 Lincoln Continental comes in four trims: Premiere, Select, Reserve and Black Label. A base Premiere model includes heated and 10-way-adjustable front seats, power-operated steering-wheel adjustment, universal garage-door opener, auto-hold brake system (convenient at stop lights), rearview camera and parking-aid system. The Lincoln includes an 8-inch capacitive touch screen and the Sync3 system that's compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. For around $ 3,000 more, we suggest the Select model, which adds leather interior, hands-free power-operated trunk, self-closing/opening doors, and the ability to add more option packages.

A Reserve model adds navigation, blind-spot monitoring, tri-zone climate control and the 2.7-liter twin-turbo V6. In addition to more features like Venetian leather and other fancy bits, the Black Label model comes with exclusive services ranging from culinary adventures to vehicle pickup and delivery. Other goodies include the 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 engine, rear-seat package with recline function and heat/ventilation, the Revel audio systems, and active safety and driving aids such as dynamic cruise control, lane-keep assist and automatic emergency braking. All-wheel drive can be had in lieu of the standard front-drive.

A trio of V6 engines is available in the 2017 Continental. Standard is a naturally aspirated (non-turbo) 3.7-liter V6. Optional are a 2.7-liter twin-turbo or 3.0-liter twin-turbo. The Lincoln Continental is front-wheel drive (FWD), but all-wheel drive (AWD) can be had on all three engines and is exclusive to the 3.0-liter. All use a 6-speed automatic transmission that does a fine job. The big Continental isn't especially thrifty with fuel, with all engines achieving about 20 mpg combined.3.7-liter V6 305 horsepower @ 6,500 rpm 280 lb-ft of torque @ 4,000 rpm EPA city/highway fuel economy: 17/26 mpg (FWD), 16/24 mpg (AWD)2.7-liter twin-turbocharged V6 335 horsepower @ 5,700 rpm 380 lb-ft of torque @ 3,500 rpm EPA city/highway fuel economy: 18/27 mpg (FWD), 17/25 mpg (AWD)3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 400 horsepower @ 5,750 rpm (estimated) 400 lb-ft of torque @ 2,750 rpm (estimated) EPA city/highway fuel economy: 16/24 mpg Note: Due to changes in EPA testing to more effectively reflect real-world conditions, some 2017 models show slightly lower fuel-economy scores than their 2016 versions.

The 2017 Lincoln Continental has a Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) starting at $ 45,645 for a base model. At $ 48,600, we think the Select is a better bet. From there, prices zoom to the mid-$ 50,000 to mid-$ 60,000 range for Reserve and Black Label models, respectably. A loaded Black Label can kiss $ 80,000. At these prices, this full-size luxury sedan is more comparable to slightly smaller rivals like the Audi A6, Volvo S90, Acura RDX, Lexus GS and BMW 5 Series. We think the Continental's best value is nearer its base price. Before buying, check the Fair Purchase Price to see what others in your area are paying. The Lincoln Continental's resale value is predicted to be only marginal.
