Wrong, not the Navigator, Aviator, LS or the current MK-Whatever models.

Toyota Avalon
Cadillac Eldorado
Mythical places, but still... (there is an Avalon in CA though)
There's also an Avalon, NJ; it's along the Jersey Shore.

If that one qualifies, so does the Pontiac Parisienne
That would also allow the Nash Metropolitan and the Chevy/Geo Metro.

Others not mentioned:

Mercury Park Lane (Hawaii Five-0's McGarrett's original black sedan)
Ford Galaxie (Austrialia's Galaxy as well)
Ford Mustang GT California Special edition (GT/CS for short)

Wrong.  Lincoln is a place name.

But the car company was, like (Louis) Chevrolet, Dodge (Brothers), (Walter P.) Chrysler, (Henry) Ford, and (Ransom E.) Oldsmobile, (Antoine Laumet de La Mothe, sieur de) Cadillac (founder of the City of Detroit - Fort Pontchartrain du Détroit), (René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de) LaSalle, Studebaker (founding family), Nash, (J. L.) Hudson, Packard, (David Dunbar) Buick, named for the person, not the places.  Pontiac and Oakland (County) were named for the places.
