"I had a 2002 LSE Model. Purchased in 2004 and still under warrenty and was certified. This was my first car purchase out of college without my parents help. I was in love and had to have it. It is in my opinion style wise very simple but o so elagant. It a sports car with the feel of a luxurious Euro sedan. However a year into my dream purchase the car began to have some very expensive problems with the electricle systems and engine. I relpaced the rear window regluators 3 times, had the navigation system replaced with the Alpine sound system to have it also malfunctione alot and replaced twice, then the engine began giving me proplems with the ignition, fuel lines and major transmission issues. I traded my LSE in 2006. I hated to let it go but my repair shop bills were more than I wanted to spend. It had always had regular service at a Lincoln Dealership."

"Coils, Plugs, Wires, and Gaskets will have to continually be replaced. The interior and exterior of the vehicle are gorgeous but once you get under the hood it is a nightmare. Lincoln should really be ashamed of the engine they placed in the dream of a car."

"This car loves to stretch its legs on the highway! I've got the V8 with sport pkg, and this car simply provides unsurpassed confidence at highway speeds. My car has 60k miles on it and has been very reliable. I love the standard equipped Michelins, and will purchase them again. The interior could benefit from more storage, but who really needs to store junk in the car anyway...this doesn't pretend to be a minivan. It's a shame Lincoln discontinued it, but it's our secret. Let others pay $10k additional or more for the competition, and costlier service parts. I'd take the LS again."

"As a used car these are a fantastic value. $42,000 Premium Editions are going for under $15,00 three years later. Excellent performance, V8 is a blast to drive, looks sporty yet elegent, great longevity. mine has over 90,000 miles and is flawless."

"I have owned my 2002 Lincoln LS for 2 years. The vehicle is very nicely equipped with a powerful V8 as well as great interior features. I would recommend this car only to fair weather drivers though. As well as this car handles on dry pavement, don't expect it to budge in inclement climates. The traction control does little to help in snow, my best bet was adding weight to the trunk of this rear wheel drive vehicle...lots of weight. My major complaint with this vehicle would be the repair costs that are associated with buying replacement parts. I have paid for so many window motors that I could cry. Unfortunately there is no generic part that will ever fit on this vehicle, everything must be purchased from Lincoln. I have had lots of mechanical problems that have made this car a headache to own. I recommend this car to a mechanically inclined person who knows their way around an electrical system. If you can afford the minor repairs that seem so prevalent, you will enjoy the tight handling and power that Lincoln has to offer."

"My parents have a 2000 lincoln ls. they bought it new when they first came out. in my opinion the car is one of the best on the road. the car is fun to drive and will really shit-n-git even though there's is the v-6(its a jaguar engine, transmission and suspension, just compare the car to a x-type and you will see what i mean. handling is what to expect from a car like this and comfort is definetly all lincoln. The traction control works nicely in the snow and gravel and the heated windshield wipers are a nice touch(even though the car rarely leaves the garage.) Its one of my moms cars and she likes it as much as her Benz Convertable. Lincoln has definetly improved the sporty LS over the Old Man Town Car. my only downfault is the gas mileage issue. Sure the car has power, but it should, i've never seen it get over 20 mpg. The truth is it a lincoln and acts like one. Its a good car and i recommend it to anyone who wants a sporty attractive car that will turn a few heads."
