Overview & Reviews

The Continental remains relatively unchanged for 2001. A universal garage door opener is standard, and the individual bucket seat option (five-passenger) now requires the Driver's Select System. Two new exterior colors have been added. Like all Lincoln products, the Continental now has complimentary maintenance at no additional charge for the first 3 years/36,000 miles in service.

• Plenty of useable features and options, attractive styling, powerful V8 engine.

• Large size hurts maneuverability, unsupportive seats, minimal interior storage, lack of refinement.

  Beautiful Car - 2001 Lincoln Continental
  By jack - July 30 - 10:56 am

  I totally love this car inside and out. I look around and this black and chrome machine is better looking than most new cars. I bought it used and it apparently had a significant accident front end so as the car got older. Some annoying things started to wrong. At 125k miles keyless entry stopped working, cruise control, and some interior lights. Then engine light came on. 2 misfiring cylinders. Now I have a periodic check transmission. Despite all this I attribute some of the problems to the accident before I owned it. And am seriously considering re investing to bring car back to 100%. The car is a great ride.

  Too bad its discontinued - 2001 Lincoln Continental
  By Kvegas - June 28 - 2:20 am

  Nice powerful 275hp V8. Front drive is good in the snow. Average 19 mpg in mostly city driving (not bad for the way I drive). Very comfortable front heated seats are nice. Handles well. This is my 4th lincoln and my second Continental. I really like the car and my wife likes it too. She just got a 2002 Continental. I dont know what to get to replace this car. I usually trade after 3 years but I may keep this one longer since i dont really know what to get to replace it. My only complaint is with the chrome wheels, the chrome is peeling off the back.
