Lincoln Continental keeps an estimated 50% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #374 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Lincoln Continental retains an estimated 50% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #374 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 54% five-year average for Luxury in its class by 4 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Lincoln Continental sheds about 10% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $46,305 it falls to around $23,106 by year five — a five-year loss near $23,199, about $12.71 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Lincoln Continental bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
