Every time I see a Continental on the road, I think "What is that?" Because I've seen maybe 3 or 4 ever. My next thought is "That's a really handsome sedan right there." Are they only available in black? That's all I've seen.
Similar situation to when I picked up my Genesis - 2015 model, built in 2014 and still on the dealer lot when I bought it in early 2016. This car should come with a whacking big discount - like 5 figures minimum.
7-8 years doesn't seem that long to me, though I've only kept one car that long - my '01 Maxima. If a car is serving you well, and you're still enjoying it and not simply sick of it, why sell it? I can't see myself moving from the Genesis inside of 5 or 6 years. 7 is not beyond contemplation.
