We pick up our Lincoln Mark series again today, at a point where Ford's executives were really not interested in selling a personal luxury coupe. The original Continental was developed as a concept at the request of Edsel Ford, who wanted a car to take on his spring vacation in 1939. Eventually, Continental went away, its name unused. Instead, Lincoln foisted reworked Mercurys as the Cosmopolitan, and ignored personal luxury. The brand generally lowered the bar of exclusivity set by Continental and the K-Series cars, and made things more affordable to the upper-middle portion of the American consumer base. Things stayed that way at Lincoln for some time.
