This car is a classic. Great design, great performance - a real road machine. This is my fourth Lincoln, and my third Mark. Too bad that Ford decided to stop making these luxury coupes. Have 29000 miles on this car and have had only one minor warranty job done. Sporty handling and a smooth comfortable ride - city and open road.

I am so happy with this car. I owned a 92 Tbird and changing over to the Mark is such a big difference. The newer design front and rear are perfect. The high performance engine is a plus. The cockpit design of the interior looks and feels great. From the telescoping steering wheel, to the easy entry seats, the car is winner in the big luxury sport car class.

This is a fun car to drive. Boy, do I get looks when I pass people on the highway. This car has great pickup, is good on mileage. I get an average of 22.3 mpg but on trips I get an average of over 26 mpg consistently. The only poor quality is on long downhill braking from high speeds.

problem with engine cutting out - no warning. Coils - replaced & replaced- worsened until unable to drive more than 3 weeks without same problem reoccuring. Dealer must buy back.....legal action taken. Understand this fault common with this model.... also telescoping steering wheel constantly breaking - replaced - lasts a month.... constant problem fuel cap not releasing

I have had an 87, a 93 and finally my 89 "collectors" edition (last 1000 made,with fabulous special 2 tone trim and steering wheel from the Jag, which if they started with, might still be making them). Had first 2 built into convertibles with people still gathering sround to admire when sold with 105,000 miles. That would have given LM showroom trafffic, instead of killing it but continue (for a time!) with both the Town Car and Continental which 9 out of 10 couldnt pick apart if they had to. With 82,000 miles, still waiting for first thing to go wrong! There is nothing out there to replace it with (certainly not the LS).
