The ’63 Lincoln Continental car with rear-hinged doors
For 1963, we have enlarged your private world and provided you with added power
Close the doors… and the classic look of the Continental is little changed for 1963. Even the connoisseur will have difficulty in discerning all the nuances of styling we have introduced. (One reason why the Continental retains its exceptionally high-value year after year.)
Then open the doors… and discover the first of many refinements. New spaciousness in the interior. Significantly increased leg room for passengers, and a considerable addition to usable luggage capacity. Even greater comfort and luxury in the private world of your new Continental.
Now, drive the car…and experience the excitement of augmented power in the 1963 engine. A new high turbulence piston design and full range carburetion provide superior acceleration for passing at freeway speeds — an improvement over even the remarkable Lincoln Continental engine of 1962.
Important changes, but none for the sake of change. For we will not tamper with this car merely to be different: the only changes we make are functional refinements which add to the quality of the finest car built in America.
Timeless in styling… superb in craftsmanship… lasting in value. Unquestionably your finest motorcar investment for the years ahead.
This is the Lincoln Continental for 1963. And as final proof of quality, the Continental warranty: it was the first American car to offer a total-car warranty of two full years or 24,000 miles.
[Editor’s note: The rear-hinged doors are commonly known as suicide doors.]

One look tells you Continental styling is new, totally new from the dynamic front grille to the graceful contours of the rear design. And yet you know that this new styling is a contemporary expression of the continuing Continental look. All three new models are distinctively Lincoln Continental. Each is built to the highest standards in the world and tested more thoroughly than any other car.

There is a new high-performance 462 cubic inch engine and an all-new transmission. Together, they provide an even smoother flow of power.
In addition to an impressive list of standard equipment, Continental offers innovations in luxury options. For example, there is an all-new Stereo-Sonic Tape System/AM radio. Simply put in a cartridge and four-speaker stereo sound is yours. And there is the new temperature control system that automatically maintains the temperature you select, regardless of changes in the weather outside.
