This car was an instant collectible when production ceased in 1998. The Cobra engine makes it a real sleeper and by modifying the intake and exhaust you can make it a 325 hp car. Gets lits of looks because there aren't many of them.

Mark VIII LSC Impressions

This car's exterior admittedly is not favored by all colors. In black though (like mine) it looks awesome, and I get many many compliments. The handling is superb for such a large vehicle. Reliability for major components has been very good - though there have been some minor annoyances (the exterior door handles are weak and prone to breaking - unacceptable for such an otherwise fine car). Yes, there are better cars for tens of thousands of dollars more, but overall - there really is NO car for the same money that can match the Mark VIII's total feature/performance package (e.g. 290 hp V-8, air suspension, HID headlamps, cool neon backlight, etc.)

I have had the 98 LSC almost four years. Several problems but all covered under warranty...and great service at that. It is the "most fun" car I have owned in terms of road comfort, handling, performance, and "eye appeal." Always got a new Linc when more than one day. This sucker runs and runs! Just bought a BMW740 so the wife can haul kids....joy!

Wanted one of these cars since they came out, couldn't afford it though( wife and 4 kids). Found this one on a used car lot, when I drove it i found it had a miss on acceleration and the front brakes pulsated. Bought the car replaced all spark plug boots and front rotors. Replaced front rotors and installed ceramid pads. I have one of the best cars int the world.

Bought this Mark with 32,000. Now have 87,000. Replaced both front brake rotors, they warped. Rear neon light ballast went bad and have already replaced both HID headlamps. Also replaced two C.O.P. coils. Air ride pump is starting to sound bad. I own three of these Marks. 1998 Mark VIII LSC (above) 1996 Mark VIII 82,000 miles. Replaced air struts/pump and front brake rotors (warped). 1995 Mark VIII 150,000 miles. Replaced air struts/pump, front brake rotors (warped), transmission shift assembly, and alternator. I really like these cars and wish they still made them. These have been some of the better cars that I have owned. Better than a 2001 Cadillac STS I had owned.
