I'm in a big dilemma now. I'm selling my 01 LS after 2 years of great and expensive experience (she's past 207k now). Now I need something else.
There's a 04 V8, black on black for $2,200 that needs brakes, a transmission solenoid, and a power steering pump. There's a Crack in the front bumper, but that'll get replaced with an 06 bumper / LSE bumper. Everything else is great! I know beforehand all the problems the LS has, so if a problem occurs, I know where to look (I've had every single LS problem there is). 132k miles and the headlights are shockingly unoxidized. Bull Schimdts LS is actually my wallpaper every where... And not a Lamborghini. So his car is pretty accurate to how I want this one to look.
The Mark VIII is of course the LSC trim, also black on black, 125k miles. Needs a new paint job badly, some window switches, and a new passenger mirror. This is $2,100. The mechanics and air suspension is golden (no vibrations AT ALL when I touched the suspension caps), but air struts are $550 a piece; $100 more than a Mercedes-Benz CLS500 for some reason. The legendary 4.6 graces reliability, and the interior is enormous (seriously just sit in one and you'll know).
I'd literally would like to pick up both, but I'll have too many projects going on. Both of these cars are beautiful, more so when I'm done fixing them up. I'm moving here in a few months to a house not too far from here and quite honestly I just want my new neighbors to eye my car everytime they pull off their driveway.
