Chinese Town Car/Panther clone

[252life]

Apparently the Chinese make their own Lincon Town Car.
It's called the Hongqi Flagship??

It's manufactured by FAW (First Automotive Group Corporation)
FAW is one of the "Big Five" Chinese automobile manufacturers.
Hongqi is their luxury department (Hongqi translates to Red Flag)

yep, they buy towncars and give em a face lift, thats all...

[Joe Walsh]

Yes,
But buying that car is a struggle, when optioning you can only pick one from column 'A' and one from column 'B'.

[Embassy]

Not a surpsise. Red Flag vehicles are the chosen limos for their top leaders.

looks like a lincoln mated with a grand marquis and had a retarded baby

jeezz that looks like crap!!!!!!!

[Bigdogjim]

Hey it's good for lincoln sales.........:up:

On a selfish note I'd like to complain about the godless communist leadership riding around in Lincolns when I don't have one for myself. :bigcry: What's wrong with that picture!?

I like the Chinese version better. I think, IMO, the pictures of the Chinese car show a beautiful limo. Can't say what's under the paint, reliability, parts availability but it looks pleasing.

Could the motor be a M-6007-C54? or the more economical 1.6L Kent?

[SC Cheesehead]

Interesting! I actually kinda like the looks of it.

Hmmmmm, wonder if you can order it in Blue........;)

[Egon Spengler]

I don't know if I am the only one that sees this, but the front and rear look like a cross between a New Lincoln Town Car and an old school Bentley... the headlights and taillights remind me of a Bentley... is it just me or does anyone else see this?

Rex, you can still get them in blue!

I love the headlights on this 2003 to 2011 TC.

[L.Mark]

Isn't the TownCar R pictured? It has the extended area between the doors...Not bad

[Motorhead350]

I wonder if this is still made???

[Limited360]

I still think JAC's blatant rip off of the F-150 is the best...
