Chris, yes it is a sport model, with all those goodies! It has the real upgrade stereo cd changer in glove box, the moonroof, heated seats. It is the ivory parchment (cream color) outside with the tan leather inside. The tires are the Michelin Pilots, 17". I assume those are standard? They look awfully new, though. I think the car has enough power for me, though I know that the 8 has much more power!

Thanks for the info, guys! I am trying to finalize a deal on the car. It only has 19,300 miles on it and is 2.5 years old (only 5 months of warranty left). I drove the V8, and that is a smoother engine, but it is also lacking a stick. I kind of miss the stick I had in the CSVT and wanted to get it in the LS for the fun factor. The auto in my Sable is so boring. :-)
If I close on this car, I'll post back a more detailed response. But it is quicker than an auto V6. Plus, if you follow the auto mags you'll know that Ford has had trouble with the ATX in the V8 LS. Don't forget that the Lincoln warranty is 4 years / 50,000 miles.

Yea, I forgot about that. I decided against the deal because I just bought the new Sable 7 months ago and I'd have to put down alot of cash to make up the accelerated depreciation in the first year. I'll give it a few months and then get an LS. As far as American cars go, they are the best thing out there to compete against the European models. I am very impressed, and gotta love that American Depreciation!

What about the Lincoln LSE with the Mclaren setup?? Six Speed manual with a supercharged V-8. I think it's good for 350 ponies. $56K is the asking price if I'm not mistaken.
