ahha, glad you can see that, lol. this is a rare car that unfortunately all the drug dealers and criminals have destroyed, LOL.

Nando ._ I felt the same way when I had mine

I've got a MINT 05 ultimate the thing is freaking AWESOME.

I got an 02 V8 as my first car for 600 dollars. And she's clean too so I feel the same bro it's my baby

Hey I Was a criminal far a Long time man, but let me tell you this I have had almost every year and I Never Once messed the car up lol To this day I have the Best 06 all black v8 no wood grain all grey carbon fiber, I have Never seen a cleaner One yet, Lancaster California

I got all that replaced at Midas on the same car and it cost me 2k so good job bro lol

hahah, hey dude! Good point! I don't consider a single KIA floor mat to be a bad thing, it's protection for the original floor mats. It's my way of indirectly making fun of KIA, LOL.

Man I caught the Factory "Kia Optima" Mat no less & 🤔? or "talking" the wrong lyrics at full volume "above" what ur telling us to listen to? Listen to this SQUIRREL 🐿️,wut?

Hey bro!! Yup, he needs to give me a damn call already. Ill let him drive it, but not too fast. Lol. This thing is a treasure at thos point, today ppl think lincolns are just fords, and its mostly true. But not this car, its eben worse lol - its a jag. Hahaha.

Hell no. Last thing I need is the price going up on this gem.

as soon as he does the price of them is going to go up

Hey man, thanks for checking out this video. I still own this car and there’s really nothing mechanically wrong with it. It only needs tires and then it should be perfect. I’ve owned this one since 2009 and really only had basic plastic cool parts fail over the years. Nothing like the ride and style of this model, as you might already know.

hey bro! Sorry to hear all your troubles with the LS. I honestly agree with you for the most part, I got mine with really high miles in 2009 and I still own it today, I'd say paying little for a well taken care of high mileage one is the way to go, by that point it's nearly all fixed, LOL. I used to be a car dealer years ago, and I was always weary of the low mileage used cars, high miles for a little money is the way to go. I just wen to get subway in mine, lol. IT MADE IT!!!

Wow... Do you speak english? You sure can't spell it.

hey my dude and fellow Lincoln LS owner! I once had a CD jammed in the player, if that is your issue you need to stick in a thin metal part such as a paper clip and help the CD move out.

hey my dude! I will confirm if you run into any mechanical issues with this car it will be a nightmare. that is true! Mine is still on the road and running strong btw.

hey bro! What's up my fellow Lincoln LS brother! I still have this on in the video, but I need to pass NY inspection, it's recently got a damn engine code, not a big deal, it comes and goes. EVAP. one of those BS codes, you know.

I own a 2003 with 86k org miles I love this car. It’s Pearl White two tan and brown interior.

@@hybrid32494 at 10:00 is that a burn out ? I drive in D4 and after I come from an complete stop and try to hit the gas it delay a lil and did wat your car did I have same car 2005 Ls v8 but I don’t know if mine have back up sensors

hey my dude! thanks for watching!! Now I just need this car to pass a NYS annual inspection, lol. All that cooled and V8 power and yet it still has a random Engine light on today, ahaha. No big deal thought.

@@hybrid32494 I think thats a common thing with that specific model, I think I saw that in another video. Could be wrong though. Keep loving that car because it's is a hell of a piece ;)

DK Gamer777 i can whip mine harder than that, you would have more fun with me

hey bro!! Not selling mine anytime soon, lol. I will keep it until it's over. I got this one back in 2009, and have owned it since. Ofcourse it's not my daily car, but I can still enjoy it once in a while. Plus it's got an aluminum body, so minimal to no rust.

I have an LS Lincolon also which I bought brand new, do you know what causes the intermittent air conditioner problem where it starts blowing heat on either side, or one side and not the other,, but when you go in the store, come back out.. start the car, and it is blowing cold air again. Dealer said it has to be doing this when I bring it in for them to fix it, because it has NO CODE.. whatever,, It only does it when you go on a trip, or somewhere away from the dealer, and by the time you get it there, it is blowing cold air again. Just wondered if you have had this problem I cannot remember the mileage when this started, but I now have 74,000 on it, and seems I have been struggling with the AC problem for 5 years now. They have done everything like cost me $1800 to do an air conditioner job, replacing coolant doing this and that, and then go on a 500 mile trip and boom, hot air blowing out of the vent... just wondering if you have experienced this.. thanks

hey bro! Good luck with the car you're get, I love this car! Anyway, these models do not have AUX inputs, in this video I was playing a Burned music CD I made a few years ago. Some people install a modern double-din stereo system and then you'll have all the functionality you want. But I prefer to keep it original if possible.

Would u get one with 200,000 miles ?

hey man! well if the car runs fine and you can confirm it does not have any trans/engine issues than mileage is not a problem.@@jovannyayala6468

Actually no, the DEW98 platform is based on F1 racing technology and has excellent balance front to rear. It's the underpinning for the Jaguar S Type, Ford Thunderbird, Lincoln LS, and even the first generation Jaguar F type. It's an excellent track car and immensely overlooked. A company known as McClaren was making some nasty racers from the Lincoln LS with rowdy 351 Windsor based engines and 5-6 speed manual transmissions. That's the goal for my 2000 LS V8 Sport and the 3.9l 32 valve V8 and 5 speed automatic transmission will be stuffed in the roughly 1,000lbs lighter super straight Fox body '81 Mercury Zephyr I got last year which will be a hoot with some performance Mustang suspension upgrades.

hey bro! awesome! Lincoln LS 4 life! Wow, thats some low miles for one of these, most of them have over 100K by now. I got mine with very high miles back in 2009, it has 134K already. Today it's got about 147K, clearly it's not my daily, lol. But I love it anyway.

hybrid32494 I’d sell it for $4200 loaded every option except Navigation. Has touchscreen dvd with Bluetooth. Is my daily driver. Has 73400 miles on it. All cooling system parts were replaced by dealer just had water outlet pipe done Monday at Lincoln dealer. Newer firestone tires new oem rims very nice LS don’t see many this nice anymore. Runs like a champ. Was garage kept until 4/2020 want to sell it before it sits outside much longer. Very nice car. Bought. 2020 Honda Civic si so selling the Lincoln. Can see pics on Facebook marketplace put in 62521 for zip code. Have a good one bro.

hey man!! You are on the right track. Those two hoses need to be connected. Over time one of the drain hoses seems to shrink and gets disconnected from the other, and thats how you get leaks. You need to somehow connect a tube over them and make sure it stays put. In my model LS, I have curtain air bags, and it's almost impossible to remove the headliner, So I just sealed the roof.

Go to google and type site:lincolnvscadillac.com sunroof leak Should be able to find several threads to help.

dude!! did you say M45?? That's always been on my list of cool older luxury cars to buy, I'm serious! Id say the best pre 2010 luxury car is the Lexus LS460, although they don't sell for cheap, obviously (because it's actually reliable, LOL)..

@@hybrid32494 yeah I guess you haven't took a look at my page my channel yet?

hey!! thanks so much for your awesome comment! You sure know your Lincoln stuff, I can tell. The 98 Mark VIII was a car ahead of it's time, and I love them too, but never owned one. BTW, my other daily driver is a 2007 Mercury Grand Marquis LS and a Prius, ahaha. And yup, the Red Hot Chili Peppers were a hot band at the time of this Lincoln right here, I figured a little singing would be funny, lol. Plus you tube wont copyright block my video due to the song. Most of these are modded with terrible after market radio units, I personally like only 100% factory original, plus if you ever heard that THX audio, you would never want to get rid of it.

@@hybrid32494 :) my mom had a grand marquis when i was a kid, it was white with royal blue velour interior i loved it! even then thought it was so cool all the buttons and it was the equalizer on that stock stereo that got me fascinated with installing them n perfecting my equalizer., the stock on the mark was wow too, the telescopic stearing wheel licoln has is a luxury i miss, my mark was silver with baby gray leather, there was a big change in interior on that one from the beginning Vlll's to 98 the sun roof i actually liked better than the ls but as far a handling..hands down my ls..my last car that was sadly stolen was an 03 chevey impala ls, not quite the ss but man that car was such a beast lol and that has been one of my favorite stalk stereos, ill be honest never was a huge chevy fan n especially impala's but i came to realize it was the 05- 6 maybe?.. n above i had a dislike for not only the body style but they are just missing something now, but point im getting at i wouldnt have changed anything stock on that car either, way back when shared the first ls with an x he put a cold air intake exaust and just like you said one of our cylinders started to misfire, thanks for responding back! The pruis...idk man😁 kidding...i could talk up the older foucus i had back in the day too ( super fun driver) and don't even get me started on my 06 V6 mazda 6 off the line...n sing it!

@@hybrid32494 yours is in good condition but I bet mine is even mintier. All in good fun of course. Go check out the lincoln vs Cadillac forum they have a whole section devoted to the ls.

hey my dude! The V8 models are designed to run on 91+, which is usually the highest grade of fuel in many stations. I would not run 87 in these things, worst case you could run 89, but try to avoid it if possible.

@@hybrid32494 thanks brother means a lot I been running 91+ and I’m loving the ride in them! Running strong and smooh

Never run anything other than 90+ or the valves will rattle

No it doesn’t have Bluetooth it’s a 2004 lol

How old are you??😂😂😂 2004 Bluetooth? Back in 2004 i was just making my instagram account on my iPhone 14 and playing God of War on my ps5… Just get a Bluetooth stereo adapter. It’s $15 bucks on Amazon

hey buddy! I would highly recommend you look for a normal reliable Japanese car, like a Toyota or Honda for a good inexpensive used daily driver. This is an old sport luxury car, along with the common problems all cars of this class have (other than Lexus). I love it, but it's not my daily driver. IF you're good with cars, you could make it work though.

hey pal! what's up! The LSE is a very nice and rare trim package for these cars. Although the LSE is the most desirable trim this particular one the "ultimate package" V8 Sport is the more expensive model and has more interior features. The LSE is dope though, I would love the appearance package it's got.

Alternator issue maybe??? Seems like you lost power.. my brothers C240 benz used to do this too

hey!! haha, Yes, I know exactly what you mean about the fast reverse. I have to lightly tap the throttle in reverse or else it will be crazy fast. It's normal, and it's just the effect of a Rear Wheel Drive car while going reverse. Nothing to worry about. I wish it drove like that in Forward gears too, ahha.

Thank you 🤪 I thought something was wrong

@@cynthiagreen4761 lol same happened to me when I first drove mine I was shitting myself

WHat's up my dude! That's right SI 4 life!! And yes I still have this car, it's sitting and looking good in the driveway right now. SO far I've seen a couple of these cars here SI, but none with the Ultimate Trim package for this model year. It's got an engine light now for some bogus issue, related to EVAP canister.

@@hybrid32494 there's a program called FORScan, available on Android and Windows, you can get a cheap ELM327 adapter and scan all the modules and codes in the car 99% as good as the tool at the Ford dealer Software is free, and adapters are under $20, you should look into it

hey bro! I've had this Lincoln since 2009, will probably never sell it, cause you just can't KILL IT! Anyway, singing is not one of my strong suits, ahahah!!

hey buddy! The 2002 model is a GEN 1 which ran form 2000-2002, Gen 2 is 2003-2006. This one is a second gen model. The main differences are more power and an electric cooling fan instead of a hydraulic power unit in the 2002 models. It really comes down to the condition of the car, and trim level, you know. Otherwise these are great cars if you get them for cheap and in normal shape. BTW the ford thunderbird models are the same exact cars (other than the body) as the First gen models. SO it's the cheapest way to get a 20+K used Thunderbird drivetrain for cheap, in this Lincoln.

@@hybrid32494 this is my first car, kinda lagging getting anything cause the more I look the more I find better cars so how can I ever settle? for this one I'm more worried about the coolant system, fast means hot and old cars have weird plastics so hot plastic would crack and my coolant is leaking in my friend's driveway...that's embarrassing

hey man!! Love your username on here, I agree, It's "all about nitro". ahah. I've had this car since 2009 and it's a 2004, I paid about 11% of original MSRP for this back in 2009, you see what I'm saying. Nobody appreciated American luxury cars, but they are still luxury sporty cars, nothing wrong with that.

Same

This guy is probably walking with a can of nos energy drink lol

hey dude, yes you're right. Some parts of this car are metal and not aluminum. I didn't want to get too deep into it during this video, but you're right. thanks for watching bro.

whats up bro!!! I love the XK8 and the 550i, you got terrific taste in unique cars. BTW, ive also got a really nice Mercury Grand Marquis.

hey dude! thanks for watching. This is a very subjective question, because it's an old luxury car, I would say it's similar to the competition which is other luxury cars (excluding lexus). Your best bet is to look for a 2006 model, they came with V8's only.

@@hybrid32494 is it possible i have a 2000 ls v8 auto

@@hybrid32494 the taillights have some straigt grooves across what year is it

They are good cars but, the 3.9l v8 is a little more reliable

hey dude! thanks for watching! Let me ask you a question, are you very good with repairs? These are pretty specialized high end cars, not every shop wants to work on these, or knows how to. They are cool, but my daily driver is a prius, you know what I'm saying, lol!! Ofcourse these are also cheap and quite cool, its a tradeoff.

@@hybrid32494 to be honest no I am not but I am a quick learner if that helps at all. My dad is super good with cars and he teaches me how to fix some stuff.

@@hybrid32494 the most complicated thing i have done is replacing the spark plugs on my dads rav 4. That isn't much b/c a, its a toyota and b, its just the spark plugs lol

hey man!! I love the Town cars also, I also own a 2007 mercury Grand Marquis LS, which is basically the town car. This LS is rare and also a pain in the ass if if breaks, the panther platform is much more user friendly than this over engineered fake Jaguar, and BMW 540i killer.

@@hybrid32494 love my towncar. Its. Beautiful looking fake jaguar though haha. It actually volds its cool factor all these years later. If i had the money, id look into swapping a lexus ls400 motor into it so you get the best of both worlds. Ls looks, japanese reliability. The lexus ls400 is a nice car too though. Subbed to your channel bro, enjoy your energy. Aloha from hawaii.

hey bro! What's up! Thats an Ok deal, offer 2800 and see what happens. Make sure to take it on a good test drive, these cars have very temperamental cooling system so be sure to drive it so it gets warm and looks for leaks right away. Depending on the trim level and overall shape 3K is fair price for a good running car. Good luck!!hit me up on instagram (same username as here) if you wanna chat about the car if you wind up actually test driving it.

@@hybrid32494 ok man thanks for reply I'm still on the fence about reliability of the LS I'm currently using a 07 crown Vic p71

P71!!!! Lucky bro. My other car is an 07 grand marquis ls. Lol. We are nearly car twining over here. The merc is a good highway cruiser btw and gets about 30 mpg at highway speeds. Crazy!!!

@@hybrid32494 those are nice better interor too yea i get almost the same on highway the panther bodies are super reliable

I'l be 100% honest with you, it's more reliable than a BMW or any German car, ahaha. But clearly way less than any Toyota or Honda. This is just the reality of luxury cars overall. Considering this Lincoln is really a Jaguar you could expect less reliability, too, LOL.

whats up man!! I know, I rarely drive it. I consider it a work of art and keep it in ideal shape as much as I can while it's parked outside, ahaha. In reality I daily a prius, seriously!!!!

pavlentey Its an aluminum body, it will be alive forever!! Hahaha.

@@hybrid32494 great. Nice car keep it up

@@hybrid32494 Only the hood and trunk are aluminum. Be prepared to spend about $500+ for rotted plastic cooling parts, $800+ for worn suspension control arms, and if you own a 2000 through 2002 year V8, a complete timing chain redo because of cheap plastic tensioners that WILL fail, not if. Also, $380 for 8 Motorcarft ignition coils as the cheap coils are junk. I own a 2000 V8 and can do my own labor so those were just parts list prices as well. It is a nice car, but best to find a low mileage 2006 year if buying one.

hey bro! Yes, this is one of the best handling cars ever made in this class, for it's time. In fact Lincoln had big plans to stick a much better non-jaguar based V8 into this car, but unfortunately the entire auto industry had problems when this car was getting discontinued. So that was the end of the last unique Lincoln even made.

whats my fellow LS V8 dude!! I guess you can agree that this a quite a rare and interesting Lincoln that not many people know anything about. What model year you have? you have the same nav and THX audio like mine? you agree that for a older car the audio is incredible ye? And the low RPM pull is great too.

well you could do much bigger burnouts with this car even with 100% stock everything on the GEN 2 model. Thing is, this was a cold day, the tires are wide and the local speed limit is 25 MPH. So needless to say I was not going for a real burnout. The trans in this car only jerks at low speeds when it's very warm.

Steve J that’s terrible man! Diesel is cheaper than that here on the east coast! Everything is a rip-off in Cali though and they got the dumbest gun laws ever heard of known to man🤣! However California is so frikkin beautiful and the two times I went it was so clean there!! Trash wasnt all over the roads and all through parking lots like here in Va! Theres trash every where here it sucks! Convicts dont even clean up anymore! All of our tax dollars are being wasted over here!

EastSide RC yes everything is expensive out here. Especially where I live in Santa Cruz county it’s a smallish beach town, the county population is about 250,000 I pay $1700 a month for a 2 bedroom apartment. But it’s definitely beautiful, I’m a 1/2 mile from the beach and about 7 miles away from all the beautiful redwood forests.

Steve J brother wow you live in a beautiful area those Redwood forests are amazing! I rode a lot of miles through the red wood forest and it was the time of my life! And bro you pay more for your apartment than I do for my whole house on 1.5 acres of land! But still where your at is beautiful and Im sure the ladies are too!! Hopefully you are getting paid good so it kinda evens out. Here on the complete opposite side of Cali the cost of living here is not bad but expensive in New York and further up north! I live in a good area things are not to expensive! Until you travel north haha!

EastSide RC yes thankfully I do alright for myself. But I’m ready for a move. The stupid laws and excessive taxes out here are insane.

Steve J right on brother! I completely understand! Cali needs to ease up on the residents! Glad you’re doing good though man! God Bless brotha nice chat! I hope you have an awesomely blessed weekend!! 🙌🏼🙏🏼🤝⛽️⛽️👍🏼

Technically it’s different from both, being the 3.9l instead of 4.0l

Remove the intake box silencer and drop in a K&N ..Keep the cats but remove the resonator and add some Super 44's in place of the stock mufflers..It will sound great and not crazy loud
