Advertising Proof, 1994 Lincoln Mark VIII, "It Not Only Says You've Arrived, It Says You Beat Everyone Else There"
Add to SetSummary
Lincoln's Mark VIII debuted for the 1993 model year, continuing a series that stretched back to the 1956 Continental Mark II. The Mark VIII was marketed as a personal luxury car -- a premium version of Ford's Thunderbird or Mercury's Cougar -- with a two-door body and a traditional rear-wheel-drive layout. The trunk lid's shape recalled the classic rear-mounted spare tire.
