This is Lincoln for 1956

Too often, an automobile is a compromise-maybe sacrificing power to economy or ruggedness to comfort, or handling ease to massive bulk. This doesn't have to happen, though, and this new 1956 Lincoln Capri Coupe proves that a fine car can have a wonderful balance of attributes. For instance, professional test drivers tell us that Lincoln, because of its ball-joint front suspension and and superior controllable balance, corners better than many sports cars. Yet, these are the very features that also help insulate you against road bumps and produce the famous Lincoln gliding ride. No other suspension system can match the combination of roadworthiness and comfort provided by Lincoln's ball-joint suspension. Just try it and see if you don't agree.
May we again call to your attention the way Lincoln combines true size with trim gracefulness, using this 1956 Lincoln Capri Four-Door Sedan as an example of our idea? Now, this Lincoln is a long car (see the specifications). It's as roomy as they come, too - six adults can ride in perfect, uncrowded comfort. But because Lincoln believes that cars should be big with being heavily maneuverable, a woman can wheel this 18-foot-plus sedan into a tight curb space and smile about it. With Lincoln Power Steering (standard equipment on all 1956 Lincolns), she can do it with one hand. In fact, Lincoln offers all the power assists - seats, windows, braking, and even the Push-Button Lubrication system. And each is engineered for safety as well as for ease.
Done in a monochromatic color harmony, this Lincoln Capri Four-Door interior features seats of dark brown Matelasse, which blend smoothly with bolsters of light brown done in Lincoln's finely tailored broadcloth. Like all Lincoln materials, in both the Premiere and Capri series, these materials wear so well that there's really no need to hide their beauty under seat covers.
