This Year's Model Updates:

V6 models now come with standard traction control and optional AdvanceTrac. All models receive a glow-in-the-dark manual trunk release and child safety-seat anchor points. The sport package has a new 17-inch chrome wheel design and a mini spare tire and wheel instead of the previous 16-inch nonmatching aluminum wheel (both late availability). Inside, there is an additional power point, a revised cupholder design, an optional in-dash six-disc CD changer and an optional mirror-mounted compass. The height-adjustable rear-seat head restraints have been deleted from V8 automatics. Four new exterior colors are offered. Lincoln now offers complimentary maintenance at no additional charge for the first three years/36,000 miles in service.

Pros:
  • Confident steering and handling, choice of either a V6 or V8 engine, comfortable and roomy interior, clean exterior design.
Cons:

    i just bought a one of these cars and i love the car. i bought it 2 years old with 64000 miles on it. It has a great ride and handling. I am 18 years old and never considered buying any lincoln but when i saw the LS and drive it, i bought it the next day. the select shift 5 speed transmission makes this thing fly. All of my friends say it is "the Car" and immediately fell in love with it. Check it out, you will be suprised

  • Good but could be great - 2001 Lincoln LS
    By -

    This LS with a V8 is a powerful, well balanced car. However, the front is only comfortable if you are under 6 feet tall. The leg room in a long trip makes you wish you had walked there The front seats could have been made a little bit plusher and the design should allow for a bit more room on the "wings" that "hold" you in place. So when one gets in the leather is not scratched with your left back pocket. Other than that, the car is fairly well built. Of course is Ford made so you dont get the finished that you find on a comparable car of European descent or even Cadillac. Weve problem with all windows, fogged- up headlight & noise Would I buy another one? No

  • Time to let her go - 2001 Lincoln LS
    By -

    I purchased this car for my wife and for the first 3 years of owning the car it was great. Slowly things started going wrong which I guess is normal. CD quit working, passeger door lock quit opening, gas door stopped opening, that kind of thing. at 89k it developed a spudder when you stepped on the gas. After some research I realized it was either one of two fuel pumps or a coil. Pumps were $300 bucks a piece, coils were $50 a piece. I have replaced one coil already and I liken it to performing surgery, not fun to work on this car at all. Its a great car when it runs well but a nightmare to work on and very expensive to maintain when things start going bad. Trade in value is horrible.

    Its not a BMW. It doesnt cost what I BMW does. I didnt want a BMW. I did want an American car that follows the formula - good size, great handling, decent acceleration, etc. etc. I got it. One of the best cars Ive owned (12 in the last 16 years.)

    I purchased the car because JD Power had given it excellent reviews but my experience with the quality was poor. It was in the shop a lot. Now I am look at having to buy a new car because my warranty is up and I do not want to take any chances on having a major repair like in the past.

  • I love it - 2001 Lincoln LS

    I love my car, I wish that the radio controls would light up at night though. I feel that is a flaw, however, there isnt a car on the road that looks as stylish as a Lincoln LS

    I have owned several different makes and models of luxury cars, including, Acura, BMW and Lexus. Lincoln definitley offers the Best Bang for your buck! They hit the mark with a great combination of luxury, sportiness, and performance.

  • Great used luxury vehicle - 2001 Lincoln LS
    By -

    I have read the previous reviews on this car. I think this is one of the best looking cars that I have owned. The interior is very classy. I did need to have new valve covers put on, but that is normal. This is a quality car, very well built and fun to drive.

  • Great Car - 2001 Lincoln LS
    By -

    Ive never had a problem with this car. It has great power and acceleration, easy to use controls, and is very comfortable. My only complaint is that the heated seats cycle off and the front leg room is a little short.
