Well, I got rid of my 2000 Lincoln LS. I couldn't deal with the fact that it was in great shape, decent miles, all the extras and only worth about $7k!!!! Well, on to the pictures!

guess I should *** some details. it's a 1999 GS300, has tan leather, sunroof, 6 disc in the glovebox...and there's sure to be plenty of mods to follow. Considering the 2jz-gte swap as we speak.

Very clean looking. Welcome to the site! Anything and everything can be answered here, and everyone is definitely nice. I'm curious, were you on LLSOC?

I was more on LVC than I was LLSOC.

And thanks!

I've been looking for a detailed thread about doing the 2jzgte swap. If anyone has one and can link me, I would greatly appreciate it!!

Congrats on the new car and welcome to CL!


Before I bought the GS I was 'thinking' of getting into a LS. But it just didn't do anything for me when I drove them, I test drove alot of them too! Good choice bro!

The ride quality was not bad at all on the LS. Lack of power on a V8 was a problem. Handling was not one of its upsides either.

I love the GS so far. Once I can get some info on the 2jzgte swap, it'll be that much better!
