Are Lincoln Town Cars Slow?

I know crown victoria uses the same base but I've heard they are slow. It's heavy and comfortable I've heard but another big concern of mine is the 0-60 acceleration. If you floor it does it go. Is it at least faster then a 2006 civic because that's what I have currently

    The Town Car ranges from 300 to 500 lbs. more then the Crown Vic. Part of the reason I believe is the type of suspension. The rest in fancier trim and longer body panels.

    Slow can have two  meanings- the Town Car very likely will have a higher to speed. But it will be a dog on a zero-sixty run (Nine seconds). Quarter mile 16.5. Top speed 133 miles per hour

    Honda Civic SI, 0-60 7.2 seconds. Quarter mile  15.4 seconds. Top Speed 139.

    I am surprised that the top end on the Civic is that high and the LTC is so low. But I haven't driven either. I don't know if it is a problem  with how high the speedometer goes so that is all they gave it or what.

    So yes the LTC is much slower.

    Lincoln Town Cars are NOT rice burners, they get you to where you are going in luxury and style, not quickly, roughly and uncomfortably.
