I just bought my 2nd one on Thursday and damn i waited a long 6+ yrs to get another. Never will be dissatisfied when you push that pedal. I can set mine sideways barely trying. An ALOTTTT of ppl under estimate the ls. I get diesels and mustang all day trying to race. It's a nice smile when u know you have it right off the line
Lincoln LS for the time period, was fast. The latest they were made was 2006, having a 3.9L making nearly 300 hp (and easily attainable with an exhaust, intake, and tune from Torrie) was not bad for the time. The problem was definitely weight. The 5 speed slush box was slow, and was known to blow up with 75 shots, a 6 speed manual like offered prior in the V6 would have transformed the car. Now the largest problem of all, was and still is the lack of aftermarket support. This wasn’t necessarily the aftermarket’s fault, the early CANBUS wiring systems were terrible. Hard to pick through, description of operation longer than the encyclopedia collection on grandpa’s shelves, and even stricter tolerances in deviations from target signal readings than even today’s cars. I think where now, you can buy aftermarket parts for even a Kia Koup, 10 years ago there just weren’t as many aftermarket companies. I feel that now, auto manufacturers are making cars more tolerant to modification, knowing that part of the appeal of their new vehicles is in fact the aftermarket. I’ve owned 20 or so cars since I started driving just 6 years ago, and many times I chose a car over another purely for aftermarket support. Sure, if it’s not available, but I want the car I could make parts, but there’s something to be said about clicking order and bolting something on a few days later. Now with this extremely strict wiring system in the LS, it made it difficult even to complete a manual swap. To create more power, the fact that the 3.9L motor itself was large for such a small displacement but still a smaller engine nonetheless, it makes it nearly impossible to swap any DOHC V8 engine into it without moving strut towers and creating a wide body. You could go the LS route, but you’ll deal with wiring goblins for as long as you have it just like any other engine swap in this car, again because of the wiring. It’s a beautiful car, a great chassis, but alas impossible to improve upon which is what us gear heads crave to do.
The Lincoln LS are fast, nice cars too. It is a Ford product as well. However, I heard that every time you have to put it in the shop it's cost you 3G's
151 GPS MPH achieved successfully in 06 LSV8. Have cold air intake. Spacer. X pipe, flowmaster exhaust. tbh... The suspension is waaaaaaay too much ( and too much to maintain ) for the platform. A good sport suspension upgrade is a must. Unless you want to be replacing links, sway bars, bushings etc regularly. Convert to the eibach susp. Costs a third of what the oem susp costs (lb for lb). The ride gets stiffer (not too bad though), no squeaky awkward noises either. A solid LSV8 can easily be picked up under 5 grand.
Theres a bleed/purge valve under the hiod next to the coolant reservoir. Its a black tube with what looks like a cog at the end. Turn the car on open the cap add fluid close the cap and twist the “cog”. Once you see fluid dripping out(dont twist it all the way off just twist it open) then close it back up and go about your day.
i will run it in an 07 camry 3.5l with 2 less cylinders and change your whole perspective on this car. I cannot believe people think this v8 is actually fast but yet talk shit on 6 cylinder camrys 05 and up.
I find this vid funny because I have a red 05 LS and a black 08 GT. LS bone stock GT cold air, throttle body, chip, and pro cat back exhaust. A lot of peeps don't realize that the LS 3.9 is a Jag engine I think frame and tranny too. I'll get my bro or wife to run them at the 1:4 not far from here
The Lincoln also weighs a lot more than the mustang and likely has a higher rear end gear than the mustang so, the 4 cam 32 valve 3.9 V8 seems to be doing a better job than the 4.6
Actually in 2003 the LS Recieved 50 more HP, going from 230, to 280. (I owned a 2004) And I could beat any stock mustang, up to 2011. Right before I got rid of it, I paid a shop $600 to tune the computer and transmission, and it dynoed at 332 horsepower. You gotta love those Jaguar derived engines
no it was 30 the 2000-2002 ls v8 made 252hp and the mark 2 03-06 made 280hp. I have a 05 with a k&n intake, magnaflow cat back and a conservative tune making it good for about 320hp
@@victoryLeo1yeah but it takes a machine 1 or cobra to beat a lincoln is the thing here. Youre talking about muscle cars vs a luxury sedan. It’s embarrassing for you guys really. Its as funny as watching you guys get walked by chryslers.
What is a Machine 1, I believe you mean Mach 1 plus me beating a Lincoln LS was due to the cocky asshole in the luxury car who thought he was in hotrod Lincoln kept challenging me at every stop light . Getting beat by Chrysler's OK buddy what Chrysler's are you talking about 5.7 , 6.1 , 6.2 or 6.4 last time I checked any make or model could get taken another 🤪
Did the same thing. Roommate had an 02 gt and I've got an 04 LS. Did a 55 roll and kept up until about 100, when he hits 4th gear. After that, all hope was lost. Smoked me
I gotta Lincoln ls that i picked up for $400, it apparently needs a new head but, we ran head sealer through it and it seemed to work. Everything was working and my brother took it for a test drive and the water pump went out. It also needs a fuel pump. I was wondering if it would be worth fixing it up
I have a lincoln ls I smoked a mustang 5.0 in a mile. Mine tops out at 165 no lie. Most people don't think it is a fast car but they couldn't be more wrong.
My Lincoln ls runs pretty dam good 63000 original miles, did the electric fans replacement ( derail ) by summit and the aluminum degas tank, but off the line on up to 5th gear she is a beast
Honestly had no clue the Lincoln was a decent car speed wise. I'm currently trying to pick one up. Think I might put a ford 302 in it and junk the jaguar 3.9.
a stock Ford 302 aka 5.0 in 1996 had some were 205 hp and 265 ft lbs tq and and a 03-06 Lincoln ls with jaguar BASED FORD 3.9 AJV8 has 280 HP and 286 ft lbs of tq this is a 4.6 mustang, (which is what replaced the 5.0 in the mustang in 95) and it murdered it and thats looks like a 00-02 model which had slightly less power u would ruin that car with a 5.0
2000 LS8, Black on Black, 117,000 miles, Immaculate condition. $2,350. 3rd one I've owned including an 04 V8 and a 2000 V6. I'm a 5.0 man at heart but these cars have also won me over. Absolutely love them.
I Just got s 04 3.9 L LS for $2400 it has 156k miles on it..was that a good buy..Engine and trans runs great..only thing i had to buy was a fuel pressure sensor...(to past Inspection in NJ)...but man this car was so much faster than I would have ever imagined
I have a 2002 Lincoln ls v8. Only 252 horses. Still pretty fast. People can't believe that big car moves like that. I'm looking for a newer year with the 280 horses. Very fast and great handling vehicles.
I had the best 06 ls 3.9 v8 but they never fixed the coil miss fires it was supposed to have been fixed by then the ls would’ve been a great car but typical ford owned product had my issues
I own the 05 lincoln ls Ultimate sport trim and dam its fast.i just took a charger on a red light the other day I'll post the videos in a couple of days
The 2003-2006 LS V8 is one of the best bangs for your buck.. you get so much value for so little and nobody realizes how fast these things are
too bad it didn't come stick shift
RossDaBoss707 it did. With v6 motor only.
ik I was just referring to the 2003-2006 cars mentioned above
bang for your buck, till you have overheating problems
@@mw3lover0303 that was only really on the 2000-2002 models. The 03 and up only had problems with thermostat housings cracking
People always underestimate my LS too.... 3.9L V8 powaaaaaa!
Where you 3.9 v8 mine was a 4.6
no 4. 6 in ls lincolns
Hell yeah, my 2002 LS V8 scared the crap out of me when I first got it due to how fast that freaking car is! It also runs like a champ!

I was just watching this and even funnier it's a gen 1 which made less power then then 03-06 gen 2!
That mustang didn't have shit for that Lincoln lol
I did not know the Lincoln LS was fast, smoked that mustang!

Watch yea mouf

That Lincoln's a real sleeper, I slaughtered ricers all day long back when I had mine. 😁
Ricers and Krautwagons alike. People see a bulky car and think it's slow. It's anything but.

Bro my 06 has none of that just a res delete and i spank ppl off the start everytime.
The 2002 was rated at 155 mph from the factory without the shut down, mine is really fast

3.9L V8 in the LS. Same as the thunderbird and Jaguar S-Type
Just because it's a lincoln people don't think it's a fast car
