Instead of the subheading "Lincoln's newest performance car" should read "Lincoln's LAST performance car"

The LS is the latest last perfomance car of Lincoln.

You're out of your mind with that statement.

 

[JoeyLincolnMK8]

why?

I think he is right on this statement........the Lincoln LS could have been a performance car, yet it failed to build on the good atributes it had. If anything, the Lincoln is a 4 door sports car with decent power and capable handling.

On the other hand, the Mark VIII is a 2 door sports coupe (along the lines of a Thunderbird or Cougar) but with air suspension and DOHC. If anything, the Mark VIII has more than decent power and handles like a marshmellow.

Now, if you took the engine from the Mark and threw it in the LS or took the suspension from the LS and threw it in the Mark, you would have a performance machine.

Just my opinion......

Of course mark's are faster but I seriously doubt they can out-handle a sport LS.

I named it as I did because the Lincoln LS is suppose to be Lincolns latest performance model. Whether it is or not is debatable, but thats the intention

That is why i said the mark handled like a marshmellow......as in, soft.

My apologies, I didn't read that part. Every car has it's good aspects. Never be biased.

just thought in light of the MKS debacle I'd take this opportunity to bump my own thread.
