My new DD
I have been asked about what I got for a new daily driver, here it is. A 2001 Lincoln LS with the 3.9l V8. It has the sport suspension, Alpine stereo system, 5 spd auto, 17" wheels, power moonroof, leather interior and tons of other stuff. New list was almost $40k and I got it for just under $10k with 76k miles on it. Yay Ebay!!
I really like the car a lot. A pretty smooth ride, but still sporty handling. RWD with a 52/48 weight bias front to rear. They even put the battery in the trunk to help it. The car is a Jaguar S-type with a Lincoln body on it.

Re: My new DD

Re: My new DD
Thanks guys! Not really any mods going on this one. I am going to make a CAI and might throw an exhaust on it. A V8 at 6700 RPM should sound cool. The windows are getting tinted and a factory wing on the back ( a little one). That should be about it. I want to keep it realiable, so no SC

Re: My new DD
My buddy has an LS. They are damn fine luxury cars with a little bit of sports car DNA thrown in.
His only has the V6, and is still decently quick for what it is, so I can only imagine how nice a highway cruiser that thing is.
25% tint looks really sweet on them, and debadge it as much as possible.

Re: My new DD
There is a V8 LS with dual exhaust down here in Winona. The thing sounds bad ass! Nice rumble out of a luxury car is just sweet!

Re: My new DD
Nice ride JET!! I saw that car at your work and wondered if that was what you picked up. Can't believe I guessed correctly. |
