I took the survey but I wrote in a 400hp- 400 lb ft supercharged V8 for $6000. Come up LVC members go to www.lincoln.com. Click on the LS link, then click on the MKS link in lower right. then the future technolgy tab to take the survey. Lets let Lincoln know what we want from them.

I also put 400hp/400lb ft of torque V8 Supercharged, but I didn't put a price on it. Why a 350hp V6 twin turbo are they thinking about ricing it? I guess you could upgrade the turbos and get alot more juice, so at least they're thinking performance in a luxury car.

Yeah, I put the 400 HP 4.2L supercharged V8 from the Jaguar S Series--and price is no object! :D I'm sure they'll say, "Just buy the Jag!". If only they weren't so bu77-ugly! ;)

I just took it and put 400hp+ v8... I let them know that Cadillac is pushing 469 in their STSv... they got some serious competition.

I just put something that can do 0-60 in under 5 and the 1/4 in around 13 sec. Personly I'd love to see a 500hp twinturbo 4.4L AWD with a 6 speed manual. So long as it handles at least close to the LS I'd take that in a hartbeat. But realalisticly thats just a pipe dream :(

I just completed the survey.

Joey, can you sticky this thread? This is pretty important for everyone to participate in this survey. Maybe after the survey is no longer available you can "un-sticky" the thread.

350 horse twin-turbo.

i know i'll get alot of flak for that choice, but I'd like a bit better gas mileage than a 400 horse V8 would give. One thing it didn't ask, though, is if that's with a stick or auto, because I would much prefer a stick with a turbo. If automatic only, then go ahead and gimme the N/A V8.

I won't give any flak, I just hope lincoln realizes we want more power and performance so we can compete with cadillac

I went with the RWD/AWD and TT V6. I'd rather have a V8 (like the 5.4 DOHC out of the GT, either blown or naturally aspirated, but that doesn't seem likely), but I'd take the torque and hp of the TT V6...

Yep, spent my 3 minutes and no, they probably really do not care.

I'll admit to being a little cynical, but they probably do care ... to the extent that customer feedback supports what they already want to do. :p

Took it too, hopefully they will listen to the consumers and put this info to good use.

wow they should make that survey a little more visible.

I took it; I know I would not buy it first year out like I did with my LS but 2 or third year oh yeah!

SVT is on life support, but it's not disbanded. Go to http://www.autoweek.com/ and search; they had a big article on it a few weeks ago.
