Pros: Handling, solid structure, price
Cons: Interior packaging, lack of storage
The Bottom Line: Good handling, but tighter inside than many buyers will like.
This is the most serious attempt yet at a high performance luxury sedan by an American automaker. The Lincoln LS was designed to be a driver's car, and succeeds. Yet it is not a car for everyone. Some of the design choices made will rule the LS out ...

Pros: Jag Chassis, great looks, best model year, warranty, POWER!!!!
Cons: Some small problems with electronics, gas consumption
The Bottom Line: Lincoln name, Lincoln Quality. European look, European handling. Ford Engine, Ford goodness.
I'd like to start this review by stating that I am a young driver, but a very good one. At least compared to the idiots here in Florida. I purchased my car from a used car auction here in Florida for $16,000. Seeing that it was the same price as a ...

Pros: Hard to beat the luxury for the price.
Cons: A few (mostly piddling) things.
The Bottom Line: The Lincoln LS is a reliable, luxury, driver's car!
I've owned a lot of interesting cars over the years. A couple of Corvettes ('63 and a '66 - both roadsters), three Jaguars (E-Type, XJS -12 cylinder- and an X-Type), a Lincoln Mark IV, a Mercedes 500SEL, a BMW 750IL (another 12 cylinder car), a ...

Pros: handling, performance(V-8), comfort, good looks (some colors only), affordability
Cons: poor resale value, dealer network, longevity is suspect, "its just a ford" image
The Lincoln LS is a new design for 2000. It is obviously aimed at the sports sedan market currently dominated by the BMW 5 series and the Lexus GS 300/400. While it falls off a bit from their lofty status, it is a well balanced, quality car, and if...

Pros: Performance, Styling
Cons: Price
I am tired of car magazines talking about how great the 300M is. Especially now that is has direct competition with the Lincoln LS- the Motor Trend Car of the Year. Lets look at the facts. The 300M and LS start at about the same price- $30,000. The one...

Pros: Lexus, BMW, Benz move over.
Cons: No GPS
When I first saw the 'teaser' commercials for the Lincoln LS at the end of last year, even before I knew what it was, there was no doubt in my mind that I would be driving it in 2000. Finally on March 1st I showed up at the Lincoln dealership to see...

Pros: World Class Performance - No Compromises!
Cons: Finicky Trip Computer, Rear View Mirror vibrates at speed
LS - LUS...LUSH...LUSCIOUS!!!
This car is one sweet ride! It's got the looks. It's got the moves. It knows how to treat its occupants. LS truly stands for Lincoln Superstar!
From the first time I saw this BMW fighter as an auto...

Pros: Handling, Looks, Price
Cons: Cupholder (Smile), More HP
I've had an LS for about 5 weeks. I also looked at the Lexus 300 and 400 series, the Jaguar S Type, the Volvo S80 and a Cadillac DeVille. I chose the LS for a simple reason. It was a lot more fun to drive than any of the others and cost thousands...

Pros: Inexpensive, suspension, engine power, road holding, interior space and great looks
Cons: reliability, image, build quality, resale value
My relationship with a Lincoln LS is merely for an hour or so. I was invited to a local Lincoln dealership to test drive a car and try my luck there if I actually won one.
Made an appointment there and found out that the salesman who was...

Pros: A near-BMW made by Lincoln
Cons: Still needs work in acceleration, manual tranny availability, and styling
Before I purchased my 1997 BMW 328i sport in September 99, I test drove several cars. The 2000 Lincoln LS V8 was one of them. Now that I've owned my BMW 328i for over a year, I have decided to write this comparison of both cars.

Pros: Styling, Tight Construction
Cons: Interior finish, assembly QC
I have owned my LS since December of 1999. It is equipped with the V6 and the 5 speed manual transmission. I purchased the car based on the value and styling it represented vs the other cars available in that price range. I have not been disappointed...

Pros: Great performance, stylish, luxurious
Cons: Sort of cramped
Finally Lincoln has come out with a car to rival BMW, Mercedes, and Lexus. And the LS is hands down the winner. The stylish LS is Lincoln's smallest sedan yet, but don't be fooled, it's pure luxury.
When you climb in to the LS (which if...

Pros: Handling and Value
Cons: Fuel Economy
If you think of the Lincoln LS and just another bulky old sports sedan one test drive will completely change your mind! This car plays in a whole different league, it combines European driving dynamics with American luxury. The LS is better than some of...

Author's Product Rating: Recommended: Yes
Pros: Handling, fit & finish, balance, feel & driving experience & fuel mileage A1 !!!
Cons: 3.0 could have more HP's 1 cup holder & no traction control offered on 2000
The Bottom Line: best product ever to come out of FoMoCo. Would replace mine with a newer one.
I am a car nut, work as a program manager in automotive & have an engineering degree. I am SUPER picky when it comes to cars! I have owned & driven a ton of new vehicles so my review is based on facts. I bought a 2000 LS V6 Manual Trans in 2004 with ...

Pros: Great looks, finish and handling.
Cons: No history and minimal storage space.
For three months I shopped the net, magazines and dealers for a new car. It had to be fun to drive, have a good dealer network, have a history of, or chance at, low maintenance and be a wolf in sheep's clothing (it was replacing an SHO). Finally, I drove...
