I've been in the market for a Lincoln Mark VIII LSC for about a month now. I had a 1997 Pearl White with everything but the moonroof, but had to wait for my home to clear escrow and they sold it two days before (I tried to put down a deposit).
Anyhow, I have no problem finding low-mile, inexpensive 1997/98 Lincoln Mark VIII's - just not the LSC's!!
My question:
Isn't there a significant difference between the LSC and the non-LSC models? My understanding is that there is "True dual exhaust" that adds 10 HP, 3.73 Rear gears for better "seat of the pants excelleration" and the body colored grill. Am I right or am I missing somthing?
My ideal car:
1998 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC (will consider 1997)
60,000 or less Miles
Black on Black (will consider pearl white)
Heated Seats
Moonroof
Chrome Wheels
Excellent condition inside and outside
I'm in Elk Grove (Sacramento), CA and will need to buy the car in California to avoid the problems of importing a car to California and passing the smog requirements.
Any help is appreciated, I'm constantly searching Cars.com and Autotrader.com for vehicles. I've gotten deals from $10,750 - $12,000 (Out The Door) that meet all the criteria above (from dealers) - so that's like $9,900-$11,000. I'd like to stay in that range. I've seen some (great condition) non-LSC's for $9,000 OTD (1997 with just 37k miles), but want the LSC.
Thanks,
