#40 of 103 First time poster, long time reader! New LS V8 Sport owner. by eric_ls8 Mar 01, 2001 (7:33 pm)
Hello!   Names Eric and I am 31 year old engineer for a major hardware computer company located here in Boston, MA area.   Just bought my first AMERICAN sports sedan, sold my '97 Audi A4 Quattro Turbo Sport, what a sweet ride that Audi was.... about a year ago bought a 1989 Ford SHO Taurus and actually liked its basic beginings of american competition over the Germans, found an arcticle from '89 and it being compared to the BMW M5.   Well I upgraded the SHO to a Black/Charcoal Grey LS Sport V8. If I can swing it the SHO should be seeing the SCCA track sometime soon I hope.   I want to modify my LS, anyone else who has done any mods. I am interested!   My car list:   70's Ford Maverick - I told myself after this car never a Ford product again.... until now... '79 VW Scirocco S - fell in love with the high reving engine and sports package '74 Triumph TR-6 - junker... but, boy the straigt six sounded good. '83 Honda Prelude - Should have kept this one.... '88 Toyota 4Runner '92 Acura Integra LS Sport '94 VW Passat VR-6 Sedan - OWNED it 22 Days, totalled it on 128/95 Welcome to Boston!! '92 Nissan Maxima SE - Nice power too much weight in front end. '97 Audi A4 1.8T quattro - Started modifying car, Chipped it, lots of aftermarket crap!!!   Own today:   '89 Taurus SHO 5 speed w/ 16 50's rims and 1200 watt stereo system! '00 LS V8 Sport w/ ATS, Moonroof, heated seats! '69 VW Karmann Ghia - Pride and Joy, nothing beats a 48HP convertible crusier! '93 Ford F150 (wife's) - Tows the trailer '01 Ford Explorer Sport Trac (wife's)   Hope to see you all online, its eric_ls8   can reach me shoquattroearthlink.net

Hi,   My name is Bruno Busnardo and I bought my Black/Charcoal LS8 Sport about a year ago. I am 29 years old and run a petroleum service company in Denser.   My previous cars have been few, but have all been good cars but one.   1 - 1971 Pinto - I was 16 and this car just kept taking beating after beating without fail.   2 - 1984 Renault Encore - Piece of S   3 - 1989 Ford Escort - Great car. Never broke even once after having 100k on it.   4 - 1995 Dodge Avenger - Totalled when a guy ran a red light doing about 55. Walked away without a scratch which prompted purchase of #5.   5 - 1996 Dodge Avenger ES - Black/gray with 5 speed. Great handling car for the money and the first car I fell in love with. Sold it with 100k on it and it never had a problem. Got me from Denver to Venice Beach in 12 hours flat one time.   6 - 2000 LS - Second love - Has the spirit of the Avenger with twice the power and better handling and ride. After 22k I still love it but am getting a little disappointed in the rattles and squeaks that are starting to show up. Never had one in the Avenger, which cost half the price of the LS when new.   Wife has a 99 Ford Explorer which has been a good car. I think I may stick with Ford for a while (especially since Jaguar and Land Rover are now part of the mix). My dad always bought Fords(the Pinto and the Escort were his first) and has always been happy.

#43 of 103 Z Comer! by seredmon Mar 21, 2001 (6:07 pm)
I'm a former zcot (z club of texas) member that laid his Z to rest 6 months ago. It was not easy. I work for Ford and get a great discount on their cars. I never really cared much for them, til I saw the LS and took it for a test drive. WOW!   It's a great first attempt at luxury, performance and style that competes well with Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes. Unlike my Z, it could use a little more horsepower. But I still get the looks and the compliments that I use to get for my Z. I'll rely on you guys to get more horsepower.   Like to meet new members - Keep it clean!

#49 of 103 Just My Humble Opinion by msmac1 May 18, 2001 (9:20 pm)
The Lincoln LS V6 Manual lacks adequate horsepower. I love the styling so when my lease runs out, I will get the V8. I am left in the dust by most other new cars and wonder why Ford put such an inadequate engine in such a nice car.   I bought into the Motor Trend Car of the Year hype, not realizing that this car is pretty slow. Beautiful car but boring to drive.
