Strength:

Sharp looking

Weakness:

I have had transmission problems twice. I have had troubles with my vacuum entake 4 times. The back window stopped working. And the leather drivers seat ripped immediately after I purchased it.

I have had nothing but problems with my lemon I mean Lincoln. I have never been so disappointed in a car. I have regretted my purchase 1 1/2 years of the 2 I have had it.

Strength:

Speed....is a positive...Sleek style is a pro..

Weakness:

Just to name a few:
Water in the tail lights.
Tranny Problems/shifts like there is a rock in between the gears. Sometimes not even wanting to leave park.
Head Gaskets smoking.
Back brake disappeared while I was on the highway, and the interior part of my rim went on fire.
Awful tires. One blew out on my way home from Florida.
Driver door handle wouldn't open from the outside or the inside.
Back window operator went bad.
Battery is in the trunk.
Over heating when there is suffient amount of coolant.
Replaced 1 fan already.
I believe there were a few more things!
Obviously you can tell many problems. But im just venting!!

I loved the car when I first saw it. But lately I have had nothing but problems. I bought the car in July of 05. I wish I could sell it back to them. The problems started merely 2 months after. Figures!!

Strength:

Top speed (145 mph, hwy 28 between Lander and Farson, Wyoming) The styling has the be my favorite. I tinted the windows and added 6 stainless steel post covers (I turn more heads than a 7 series next to me). Black leather interior----very nice! A very quiet, sound and stable car when driving. Love the power tilt steering wheel, big plus!!Very European looking~~~~A+++++++ Need to see more American cars like the Lincoln LS!!!1

Weakness:

Could use a little more truck space(do not like the battery in the trunk thing on the 00-02 models). Did have a hot start-up, but only once. Drivers side window regulator is getting weak. Should have introduced navigation system on earlier models.

My first Linclon! Awesome product! First American sedan that I am actually proud to drive. I added a K&N Air Intake and chip, to the 32 valve, 3.9 liter V8~~~~~see ya acura, infiniti, lexus, honda, nissan, pontiac, 3 and 5 series beemers. No problem when is comes time to pass a cheap, souped-up asian import on the highway.

Short on storage in cabin and trunk. Starting problem experience.

Good value. Stylish, good ride and performance for the money. Comfortable to drive. Have had on several long trips. Have 7K miles now. Have begun to notice hot start problem a few times. Takes 2 to 3 tries to start after shutting down after a drive. Otherwise satisfied.

Model Reviewed: ls 5 sp manual

Strength:

styling, pick up (only w/5 sp manual) I give this car a 5 if puchased used. A 3 if new, and trying to trade it in.

Weakness:

lack of HP for a luxury seda, hell the New Altima's have more. Cheap plastic interior. especially the piece behind the Front passenger and driver.

They major draw back is the deprecation. I swear This car with only 44K mile is valued between 11-15K. Though the styling is still jaw dropping, especially if you add after factory rims/wheels. I’ve added 20in Veloche chrome Vendetta’s. I’ve experienced only minor problems; window regulator went out twice (WARRENTY).

Model Reviewed: Lincoln LS

Strength:

Looks, handling, paint quality, performance under pressure - can leave a BMW feeling bad for itself.

Weakness:

Those darn integrated coil spark plugs - expensive with a high failure rate. Interior quality should be better.

Great looks. One of the classiest looking cars on the road. Very nice paint quality. Rocket V-8 when you get on it and reserved when you don't. Handles very nicely. There are not many two-ton cars can take a half moon exit ramp at 45+ and not scare you. In fact...speed up and the suspension seems to stiffen.

Strength:

Looks, and that's about it.

Weakness:

everything but the looks, cheap made, quality is not there, no interior room, leg and head. Does not hold its value, typical Ford product

Do like like this car for the price paid. looks nice on outside, inside too cramped. problems with tires, flat spots in less than 15,000 miles, dealer says "tough", not covered. would expect much more for the price paid.

Model Reviewed: LS

Strength:

Acceleration (V6), looks, smooth ride, I love the parking brake, keypad entry, has CD AND cassette player.

Weakness:

Small glove compartment is the only weakness as far as I'm concerned.

Have had this car just about 1 yr and haven't had a single problem with it. It's luxurious and a real treat to myself to drive it. After reading so many negative reviews, I had to write about my positive experience with it.

Model Reviewed: LS Sport

Strength:

1)Handling that results from the near perfect front-to-rear balance ratio and performance underpinnings. For the purist, this car has to be seen from beneath as well as afar! 2) Flawless (at least for 76K miles thus far!) performance of the 3.9 V8.

Weakness:

Some minor, early issues (rear window regulators, half-shafts, ball joints)that are mainly attributed to "first year" bugs were corrected under warranty.

First car to absolutely EXCEED my pre-purchase expectations. I wanted a luxury/performance vehicle and the LS fits both desires perfectly.
