This has been a great car. Very low repair costs. Great performance and economy. I'd buy another one if they still made them.

I bought my Mark LSC as a second car for commuting (talked my wife into it) and since than it's the only car I drive. I love the HID headlight and all the features but most of all the power... and lot's of it. After about 4 mo the only thing I had to change was the oil. The engine and the transmission are still very powerfull although it has 125000 miles on it. The car has all the features in working conditions. If you have a chance to buy do not hesitate it's worth it. I know mine was.

I love this car! It's a used luxury bargain. I 've had it over a year with only regular maintence required with 60K miles on it now. It's sleek and fast. The seats are very comfortable "like butter" my friends say. I just took a trip from San Diego CA to Laughlin NV and it was a breeze. No fatigue what-so-ever. Decent gas mileage 25 mpg on the trip (mountains) I've seen 27 mpg, with a low of 14 mpg strickly around town....not bad for what it is. The ride's not as mushy as a Town Car, a little firm for a luxury car. The back seat is a little tight when a 6'2" friend was back there.

Mark VIII

Overall, this is an outstanding car. It by far dominates other cars in its class. Its depreciated very rapidly, which is good for the buyers, but bad for us sellers. The performance of this car is outstanding. Where else can you find a luxory coupe that will keep pace with a Camaro Z28, and run just a car length behind the Mustang Cobra?! Interior wise, it stacks up right along side all the others. Equipped with a message center computer, traction control, 6 way power seats, 8 way if you count the power reclineing seats, and an integrated phone. For a car that started out at $40,000+ this is a great buy.

this car consistently get's 26-28 miles per gallon, that is at 70 mph and ac running. We average over 400 miles a tank on 18 gallons. Great power for passing on 2 lane roads, we currently have 88k on this automobile and i have no intention of getting rid of it.

The best part of this car is it's acceleration...Like a rocket. The worst part is the headlights...I would be better off with two flashlights it's also a little tight in the driver's seat and the passengers seat but i'm 6'2" and need the height and width.

I've enjoyed this vehicle to the limits. 220,000 miles and still very strong. Trans rebuilt at 150,000 along with some air suspension/electrical repairs. Rust is beginning to take over however i just wont part with it until its done!
