As good as my 5 series

I have only owned this car for 2 weeks, so I can't judge reliability yet. However, after owning 2 BMW 5 series sedans, I can say that this car is their equal in terms of comfort and performance. This may relate to my driving style, which is not real aggressive, so I appreciate that the suspension on the LS is tuned a little softer. Car is a joy to drive, front seats are very comfortable, and reports from the back seat are that there is plenty of room. The wood grain interior accents get lots of compliments. Stereo sound is excellent (audiophile option). Gas mileage is not great, but I knew that going in (still, in mixed driving, I am averaging 18 mpg). I would recommend this car.

The car is sweet on the highway, at 70 mph i can get 28 mpg, at 60 i get 29 mpg, at 45 i get 32 mpg. In the city i get 19-22 depending on stop lights and traffic. I wish the display showed instantaneous MPG readings, instead it just shows average. the radio plays CD's but not MP3's. Stereo Rocks, nice sound. The trunk does not always "pop" open when i hit the button, i have to lift it (really no big deal) Brakes squeak, i don't know if it would get better if i stuck different pads on it, i have not tried, but i asked about it. I should have gotten the GPS built in, but cash was an issue.

Worst car I HAVE EVER OWNED - If I got into all the details and probs I'd be here ALL DAY. Put it this way, check engine light was on so many times in the 6 years I owned I can't even recall how many times. Check charging alert - replaced the $200 alternator and $130 battery and STILL ON. This car is an ELECTRONIC NIGHTMARE - I wish I had got rid of this MONEY PIT before I found out my rear A-frame was rotted out beyond fixing, won't pass inspection and isn't safe. Oh and lets not forget it's 17" tires get CHEWED through like nothing I have ever seen before- can't even find a decent tire with decent tread rating all below 500. OMG I get hives just thinking about that hunk of crap 02 LS V8

I almost bought a 2006 Lincoln Ls & took it to my Mechanic & he also ran a computer diagnostics on it too & he told us to walk away from these type cars. They will cost you loads of money to fix & it basically runs on a computer system like 6 if not more. So if anything goes wrong with this car your looking at lots of money to dish out & it will break your bank/ pocketbook. They are very nice cars, not worth the price and money in the long run, if this type car runs into any problems. The engine coil goes out in these cars quite often. That’s about $450 including labor for each coil & the front struts run on a computer system as well & cost around $450 each side to fix. Not worth it! Your better off with a Honda.

I bought it with 82000 miles. Less than 4 months and 3000 miles later 3 engine coils steering pump, ac switch and park brake $1000 in repairs and that's with the dealership covering half of everything. Still owe 8 grand worst car ive ever purchased. Put the car in park and RUN AWAY. you can thank me later.
