Already seen a lot of 300's stretched. Yuck.
On a side note, I'm surprised Chrysler hasn't brought back the Imperial. Every rapper, basketball star and 40 something cougar would be in line purchasing one.

No votes for the Hyundai Genesis or Equus? They seem like they would be excellent candidates.
Also, anybody think the Cadillac XTS may pick up some sales even though it's FWD? I know Ford is selling a stretched Fusion Hybrid but not sure if that will continue into the next generation.

I was just about to post the XTS as an option. The rear seat in that car is BOSS. Lots of room. I suspect most limo drivers don't care if the car is FWD or RWD as long as there is enough room.

What happened to the OP? I couldn't tell if he was just fishing for ideas or where he was going with this thread.
As far as replacement limo candidates for the Town Car, I suppose any large vehicle is plausible. All cars today are unibody, so modifying them won't be nearly as simple as it was with the body-on-frame Town Cars. The Cadillac XTS, Chrysler 300, and Lincoln MKS all seem like the most likely candidates for limo conversion. I wouldn't be surprised to see more truck-based limos such as the Cadillac Escalade.

I though the Lincoln MKS would be the natural candidate.

My god the MKT is ugly. At least the Town Car was classy and looked like a limo. Total mistake to discontinue it without a replacement.
