2002 Lincoln LS review from North America

Well I am getting a new radio for it. I just don't like my old one.

Great 4 door sedan. It is almost reminds me of my 93 Davey Allison T-bird with the 5.0L under the hood.

This car is your typical ford. They will nickel and dime you to death. But hey my blood runs a deep color of Ford blue. I own a lot of them; 2 Fords, one Merc, and now a Lincoln.

The LS with the Jag V8 is different; real smooth power, almost like a baby 4.6L cobra engine. It love to rev; it comes alive after 2700 rpm. But I am not hard on this car.

Now power; it lacks a little for me. It has good power at first, but this thing needs to breath. Hint Hint, remember the Clevelands from back in the day. With the LS 3.9L, a good chip, cold air intake moved to a more dense spot to get that cold air, and a good more open dual exhaust will do wonders. Please use at least 89 octane in this car.

Remember to buckle your seat belts; it has safety features built into it.

I run mine with 94 octane sometimes with octane boosters, and in the 1/4 mile have been able to do 13.7's. Think 4000 lb car, simple bolt ons and 13.7's. Bang for the buck and I don't see any Lexus doing that. I don't even see a Impala SS from the factory doing that.

Added on:

Cold air intake

Better flowing exhaust with only 2 mufflers

Enkei RS6 with G-force sports

This car has real potential for it. Too bad they stopped making it.

Only possible thing Ford could have done was either the supercharged Jag engine or the DOHC 4.6L supercharged Cobra engine backed by the 5 speed. This should have been a special edition LS-X (extreme) capable of AMG killing 12's in the 1/4, and better handling than just about anything out there.

But I am happy with what I have.
