I am thinking of cutting the rice (yes I drive a honda) out of my daily driver diet and am seriously considering a car I drove today at a big multi dealer expo.

I had the pleasure of test driving a 2003 Lincoln LS with Low Miles during lunch. The sales guy was an older guy that allowed me to abuse it slightly and to get as fast as I would dare in the big mall parking lot in the back where there werent any cars.

Stuff I liked:

Nice power (280 HP V8). I stomped it and it felt great.
Handles well - Independent front and rear suspension, Rear Wheel Drive. I drove it in a tight circle and hit a 90 degree curve at near 50 MPH. Surprisingly agile.

Has anyone out there had any long term experiences with these cars? I put about 90 miles round trip with my current job and really would enjoy this car. I will not enjoy it however if it ends up being a repair hog.

Thoughts? Comments?

Thanks Guys
