Howdy! :)

I used to troll around here a few years back when I had my Mark VII, but now I'm the soon to be proud owner of a 97 Mark VIII LSC!:D

It's coming out of Miami, I had a friend of mine check it out & it's as clean as it looks. Only issue (so far) is the wrinkled rubber trim on the back window which I'll take care of as soon as I receive the car. Here's a link to it when it was on Ebay, I did a little dickering with the seller & bought it offline.

It's good to be back!

that's some great camera work on there, very nice angles to compliment the beautiful car.
 
When I saw that car on ebay it was up to 6800 or so with 3 days left.Car looked real nice even though they photochopped some pics.But definatly nice ride and welcome!

Not at all, I paid $7,500 which I think is pretty good given the condition/miles of it. Heck, it's hard to even find a decent mustang GT in this kind of shape for that!

I've wanted a Mark VIII for a long time & now I've finally got one!!! :dancefool
 
Yes I love the 96 thru 98 Mark, but were you interested in any Eldo's? I look for something like your Mark as well but ended of with a 96ESC and I'm not ashame to say I love this car.

They made that body style from 97-98.......
 
I'm aware of that. I just like the 96Diamond Anniverary cars(without the chrome grill).

Actually I looked at a 2000 Eldorado ESC, it was a really nice car, but I'm not a real big fan of front wheel drive. It had really good power, but I really love the look of the Mark VIII.

Ahh. I must have misread your post. I thought it said "I like those 96-98" sorry bruh.

You got it! 300H.P. and front wheel drive, real clever.
 
i dont like front wheel drive cars either... its just something about fish-tailing in a lincoln that gives u chills all over.
 
Looks kinda like my 97 LSC. That is one sweet ride! It needs Octastar wheels though!:D Congrats

Congrats on the purchase. Hopefully those Gen II germlins won't bite you.
 
Cool ride, welcome to the Gen II ranks. Looks liek the cup holder/ashtray assembly is missing inthe center consol. A blank plate seems to have replaced it. I am anxious to see if you know what this is?

Again - cool ride!
