Daily Driver Lincoln LS?

I agree they are great looking cars, and if gas is a factor, go test drive a V6 model and see how that feels. Althought I fear now that you have tested the V8, you wont want anything less!

That is kinda what I was thinking Jim. The wheels it currently has are the Chromed out factory rims so I might can even live with those for a little while.

I am still trying to get over the handling of that car. I knew it had a V8 but never expected it to drive that well. In High School I had a 1988 Firebird formula. I dont recall it having that kinda power and handling.

As you can tell I really kinda want it.

Thanks for all the input Guys. Gonna crunch the numbers and see what I can do. Even if this one passes me by, I will know what to look for in the used market.

I also like the LS's, they are a little on the heavy side and I wouldn't mind a larger motor either (though you can always slap on a supercharger), but I still like their looks .

There is lots of info (all sorts) on http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/ .

Both the Jag and the LS use the same platform. Father-in-law had the LS, nice ride with no problems

I've always like the LS. If your looking to play with it later....when discussing a Ford V8 turbo project with a turbo shop last month they couldn't stop talking about the LS V6 engine..they are getting serious power out of it with minimal boost, he literally wouldn't stop talking about it. His story was that the V6 started out a porsche design..Jag got ahold of it from them...then of course Ford got it from there.
