Aloha
Have decided to get a Mark VIII LSC. Probably a 98, maybe a 94-95 LSC. I have been reading the posts and I enjoy that 99% of you respect one another. Very good info and now I know some of the important things to look out for when searching for a Mark VIII.

There was no LSC option in 94. Only in 95,96, 97, & 98 could one get and LSC Mark VIII. That catch is that Ford was nice enough to basically call all Mark VIIIs LSCs. It often shows on the title or registration card. While its true that all Mark VIIIs are LSCs (luxury sport coupe) they do not all have the LSC badge (option) so be careful when looking. A lot of dealer will list an LSC when in fact it is a base. The lack of chrome inserts is the easiest was to tell (unless you can see the LSC badge on the trunk)

95-96 can't be recognized in the VIN, 97-98 can. 97-98 are easy to spot because of the painted grill and tail-light trim. 95-96 look for the chrome on the bumpers and door to be missing. Perforated seats are another easy thing to spot.

I dont mean to jack this thread but where did you get your wheels? Are they 5x108 or did you do the hub swap, the y2ks look really nice on your car.
