    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    For 2005, Subaru changed over the Legacy lineup (including the Outback). The interiors are far better than before, and the choices are basically a 2.5i (Boxer 4-cyl) at 168hp or the same engine, turbo-charged, putting out 250hp/250tq. On top of that, a simple ECU reflash can yield another...

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    I kinda feel bad about reporting this because this group has been so honest and helpful about the LS but I ended up gettting a 2005 Subaru Legacy GT Wagon. I really couldn't be happier with my decision either. The LS hung in there until the very end and if I was not able to find the exact...

    Another few question from a possible LS wannabe... (LSE, suspension ?s)

    I will look into it. It sounds to me like a spring change only mildly effects the Lincoln's handling - My goal is to have a lower stance while keeping a non-harsh feel, not race the thing ;)

    Another few question from a possible LS wannabe... (LSE, suspension ?s)

    Most excellent :-D On the suspension I was thinking more of the ride-height adjustability that coilover offers (well, some coilover setups). Has anyone experimented with this or are there any product offerings? This isn't a huge deal-breaker for me at all.

    Another few question from a possible LS wannabe... (LSE, suspension ?s)

    Hello again. This forum has already been extrordinarily helpful in helping me bone up on my knowledge of the LS, but I find that I have a few more questions that I can't seem to find through several rounds of searching: Is the LSE bodykit adaptable to the 2003 model year? Suspension...

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    Interestingly enough I glanced at the specs for a 2005 Maxima (for a comparison I am more or less used to) and the Lincoln meets or beats all the measurments (leg/hip/shoulder). Again, thanks for the input guys. The Lincoln is NOT dead on my list...more to follow.

    How do all the 6ft plus guys feel about the interior space?

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    Got to test drive a 2002... ... and there is both good and bad. The Good (IMHO): Road handling. The LS handles the road nicely. You can tell its there, meaning that you can feel the input, but it absorbs everything from large bumps to expansion cracks like they aren't there. Wind noise...

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    It had been in an accident prior to me purchasing it. That, and the rear end was suffering from damage I can only assume were from abusively hard launchs. IMHO, a Mustang really shouldn't be a daily driver. There is so much that car was capable of, and capable of becoming, but it wasn't the...

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    Do the '02s have 48/50k as well as the '03+? How much is the extended warrenty and is it bumper to bumper?

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    OK. So what are the biggest differences between the '02 and '03? I know there are supposedly like 500, but what are the high points? I like the idea of an '03 due to it still being in the 48/50000 warrenty. I also think the A/C seats idea sounds totally :q:q:q:q (as Cartman would say)...

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    Thanks for the insight. The Subarus appeal to me only starting this year because the Legacy line went though a MASSIVE change. AWD that works well seems to be tough to find under $30K but seems to be a joy to have. I would say that the Suby and Lincoln are tied for top place right now. I need to...

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    TOTALLY alright to give opinion LOL. I happen to have justifications for all of the choices: Excellent value for what you get. Reliability of Ford products considering my past with them the unknown factor I have no kids. This wagon is a total sleeper (turbo-charged, AWD, 250hp/250tq stock...

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    Thanks guys! This is the type of info I was really looking for. My particular list is quite diverse and each vehicle really can't be compared to another (just in case anyone cares LOL): 2002/03 Lincoln LS V8 Sport 2005 Subaru Legacy Wagon LTD 5spd 2003 Nissan Maxima SE 6spd (but I have...

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    Cool. Thanks for the input thus far. I wonder how many current LS owners came from mid-level imports like myself?

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    Hehe, the Maxima's had coil problems too. Did Lincoln revise their part or do you need to just keep replacing them? What causes the LS to overheat? Thanks! (mmm Hayabusa)

    Considering a used LS as my next ride...

    ...give me your best sales pitch! Greetings all. I have been lurking here for the past few weeks trying to bone up on the LS. I have a short list of cars that I am considering to replace my 2000 Nissan Maxima SE (5-spd). The thing that made me add the LS to this list was its styling, features...

    What was everyone's first car?

    Dude, 3 SHOs! Nice! Here is my list: First car (1993): 1968 Mustang Coupe 289/4 Barrel Holley. A great car to start on as it needed some help getting it "worthy". Next up, 1990 Taurus SHO, blk/blk. I went from a '68 Mustang with no A/C to a car that had auto activating headlamp and...
