Overview & Reviews
The LS features a new front fascia for 2005, and the automatic transmission has been tweaked yet again for improved shift feel and quality.
- Confident steering and handling, optional V8 delivers plenty of smooth and quiet power, comfortable and roomy interior, optional THX-certified sound system.
- Lack of a manual transmission keeps it from true sport sedan status, build quality lags behind German and Japanese competitors, not as nimble as other sport sedans in its class.

Quality at an affordable price - 2005 Lincoln LS
By luckyjackg - September 24 - 7:10 amHaving had similiar type automobiles, I was pleasantly surprised by the handling and pick up this Lincoln had. It handles like a car half its size. People have commented that I must be doing extremely well in life, as the car looks very expensive. It has been confused with a Jaguar (same platform).

Sports Sedan - 2005 Lincoln LS
By Jiggs - May 28 - 7:10 pmWhat a great sedan! Its good looking, well built, handles like a BMW and is surprisingly affordable. Why Lincoln didnt just continue to improve and fine tune it instead of stopping production in 2006 is beyond me.

Great Car as long as you dont wreck - 2005 Lincoln LS
By Stacy M - February 26 - 1:06 pmI loved driving the Lincoln LS-Great Car!But accidently ran off road dodging deer, car slide down incline & hit covert. When car flipped 3 to 4 times completely totalling out car the only airbag that deployed was passengers side front. Car nose dived on drivers side flipping & hit every point on car but the steering wheel nor side airbags ever deployed. Lucky to be alive! If you own a Lincoln LS have airbags checked-end this accident I was informed all airbags shouldve deployed that wouldve help prevent alot of pain & stay in hospital.

My Lincoln LS - 2005 Lincoln LS
By Jane & Wes Breschini - July 23 - 5:26 amMy experience with my Lincoln LS has been very satisfactory. I had driven a GM Buick Park Avenue for 7 years and also had a good experience except, I wanted a smaller car but with the same amenities and quality as my Buick. I love this car....it is smaller in size and I ride in great comfort. I purchased it off the lot.......I had a list of what I wanted and there it was, color and everything with some extra features. I am 70 years old.

Lincoln LS: There is no substitute... - 2005 Lincoln LS
By Ivan - February 14 - 12:20 pmThe Lincoln LS is the ultimate driving machine. Affordability and extensive features makes this car attractive to any gadget man who likes toys (like the GPS) and the feeling of safety and power on the open road.

The 05 is even better then 02 - 2005 Lincoln LS
By Faithfull one - January 4 - 5:56 amThis is my second Lincoln LS I loved my 02 but this one is even better. It has incredible power, handles wonderfully, and is so fun to drive.The even weight from rear to front keeps the car from nose diving when stopping fast.I was sold on it when we were doing 75mph and the truck in front of us lost his load and we had to stop suddenly. We never lost control and stopped with such ease.

Best car I have owned - 2005 Lincoln LS
By Steve Timm - October 27 - 5:00 pmEverything about this car shouts performance and quality. It is everything a BMW or Mercedes is, but better because it is AMERICAN! If there is anything I would change , I would give the back seats a little more leg space. At 63" I have to move the driver seat forward to provide enough leg room for anyone older than 10. My knees almost touch the dash which is not comfortable for any lenght of time. Otherwise a great car.

Job Well Done - 2005 Lincoln LS
By bonesofstone - July 19 - 10:00 amOver time I have owned a number of luxury sedans and I am thoroughly impressed by the LS. Lincoln has come a long way in its quest for a front line competitor with the European and Japanese makes in its class. It is fun to drive as well as practical (selectshift transmission is great in traffic... less use on brakes). Handling is fantastic! One thing Id like to see improved would be shoulder room and leg room for the front and back.
