Lincoln Mk VII

The most fundamental change in American luxury cars for many years, the Mark VII was an aerodynamic sedan with the remarkable feature of electronically controlled air suspension, developed in conjunction with Goodyear.

The system consists of four air springs, a compressor, three height sensors and a microprocessor, all working to maintain a constant ride height. The idea behind this revolutionary concept was to give ride quality equal to that of the bigger Lincolns of yesterday, but with far superior handling.

The Mark VII was also the first American car with flush-glazed headlamps, made legal just before the model went into production.

A straight-six BMW turbo-diesel option was also available.
