You really where reading up on things! So where else did your adventure lead you too, any interesting topics?
I dont think the LS was built to compete with the beamer in regards to performace...I think they wanted to attract people with a not so much of a "grandpa" lincoln and get into the younger crowd. Everytime I tell someone I own a lincoln, they automatically think I drive A. my dads car or B. my grandpas car. They wanted to steal people away from the BMW and Mercedes not for performances reasons, but for appearances. Why did we buy the LS? I would bet most of us would say because its different than everyone elses beamer and benz. Most didnt buy it for the power and handling.
all u guys talking about how badass bimmers are should go to a bimmer forum and swing on their nuts cuz your gay. my v6 five speed ran a 13.5 quarter mile with a 100 shot of n2o and exhaust an intake and an upgraded clutch and shifter. the slush box auto sucks even though its a v8. if you want an m5 buy one if you can afford it or if you want something different that nobody else has be a man and modify what you like. the ls is not the easiest car to go fast in but it is possible with some time and money and resourcefullness. ive tried many things and broke many things. lots of parts didnt work some did. its more fun than buying a stock fast car that any dork can go buy. this is why most people dont like posting legitamte info on here cause all the queers that dont believe what they say or want some lambo doors and 22 inch wheels. a bunch of clowns. good day
i gotta put my 2cents here. i have no clue as to what most of you are speaking about in terms of engine mods, but i love my ls v6. when i need it to move, it moves. there are times i peel out without meaning to and surprise myself.
i've never driven the v8 ls, but for me, the v6 has plenty of juice but most of all and most important, i enjoy driving the car.
if the ls v6 doesn't have the power you want and you can't tinker with it, you might have to take everyone's advice and get a different car. or take it as far as you can and enjoy your handy work.
still there is 210hp and 205tq... and u cant peel out?
