Overview & Reviews
The V8 Premium Sport is now called the V8 Ultimate. Minor suspension and transmission upgrades provide less noise and smoother shifts. Sirius Satellite Radio is now a dealer-installed option.
- Confident steering and handling, optional V8 delivers plenty of smooth and quiet power, comfortable and roomy interior, optional THX-certified sound system.
- Manual transmission no longer offered, build quality lags behind German and Japanese competitors, not as nimble as other sport sedans in its class.

Step up from MarkVIII - 2004 Lincoln LS
By Steve Berndt - December 25 - 5:00 amHated to leave Mark VIII, but really excited and pleased with performance style, curb appeal, and all the goodies. Cockpit is very driver friendly, speed and audio controls handy. Heat-A/C seats a gem. Travel from Maine to Fl 10 times a year. Heated wiper, seat is great in snow. Great storage, fold down seats a real plus. Transmission choice brings fun back to driving... Unless a Markclone comes back, Im a happy guy.

A Happy Customer - 2004 Lincoln LS
By New Jersey Driver - November 16 - 2:00 amI have been driving Mercury Sables for years....I decided to opt up to purchasing a Lincoln LS. It is a much more powerful car as compared to the Sable and much more luxurious. The ULTIMATE package includes several options. It is about the same size as the Sable in terms of driver and passenger room. I am completely satisfied with this purchase and very happy.

Awesome LS but... - 2004 Lincoln LS
By Pete - August 28 - 3:53 am04 LS is just awesome to drive and look at and want to be in all the time but, fuel mileage is terrible in city and transmission. Has been in dealer shop twice now and is going back again due to jerky shifts, bucking uphills even after replacing trans solenoids.

My favorite car - 2004 Lincoln LS
By Stu - August 22 - 10:56 amCar is solid and fun to drive. The V8 engine provides effortless power. Ford has done a good job with this car and should advertise it more. Many of the cars features are available on other cars, but my Lincoln demonstrates a special quality, that justifies a premium price. My "LS Ultimate" is very quiet on the road and yet, you always feel secure and comfortable. Controls are convenient and easy to reach. The "LS" is not a big car, yet is good looking and commands a respect not seen in similar priced automobiles. It has all the goodies that belong on a premium automobile.

Impressive - 2004 Lincoln LS
By Riggity - August 12 - 10:00 amI Drive top end cars every day. I have found the Lincoln Ls to be one of the nicest and best handling sports sedans on the market. The Ls with the V8 and advance trac seams to give the driver a piece of mind while take country roads at speeds over 75. This all in a car not priced over 50,000.

Youll Love This Car! - 2004 Lincoln LS
By Tim R. - June 23 - 12:10 amPurchased a used (18,000 mi.) 2004 V8 with the LSE package in Oct. 2006. Had absolutely no problems so far (42k mi.) Very well "built" luxury sports sedan. Handles great--plenty of power--decent mileage* for a V8 with this power. Highly recommend this car because of value, quality and performance. If your seeking a nice used luxury sports sedan at an "affordable" price, then this car should be on your "list". The car runs fine on 89 octane (mid) gasoline, although 91 octane suggested by factory.

Lincoln LS beats BMW 5 Series - 2004 Lincoln LS
By Terry Hunt - May 13 - 10:00 amMy wife owns a 2004 BMW and my LS handles better, gets better gas mileage, built better, has more power and costs $10K less than the BMW 5 series. I traded in a Lexus 330 for this LS and am glad I did. The rear wheel drive in the LS handles much better in emergency situations than the loose feel of the Lexus and the luxury feel is equal if not better.

My Second LS - 2004 Lincoln LS
By LSLover - November 29 - 10:00 amI previously leased a 2001 LS and had some problems with reliability. However, the drive experience more than made up for the problems. When the lease renewal time came, I did not hesitate to stay with the LS. The increased horsepower and improved sound proofing and other tweaks to the design and ride make me glad I stayed with the LS. This is one great ride and a real blast to drive!
