Lincoln to Come With Sirius Standard in Almost All Vehicles.

Lincoln has announced that Sirius will be available in all 2008 Model Year Vehicles with the notable exception of the Town Car. This comes on the heels of news from both Mini and Land Rover that Sirius will be standard(LR), or as a factory option with lifetime sub(Mini) last week.

This could mean one of two things. Either (1), Sirius has lined up this news and/or it’s a coindidence that they are all coming out at the same time, or (2), Sirius has seen soft retail sales for the first quarter of 2007. Hopefully we will find out the subscriber numbers later today or this week. The timing matches up with the subscriber number announcement, and it could indicate soft retail sales with the merger news drawing some people from buying due to fears of obsolete radios.

Stay tuned to Backstage for the latest updates once the subscriber numbers are announced.
