I've been eyeballing a Mark VIII at a dealership in Pompano Beach, but that's a bit of a hike from Richmond. I'm wondering if anybody could head over there and check it out for me. I could offer some compensation for both your time and gas expenses, I'm thinking around $50 but it's negotiable...

Well, I had just filled up my tank and finished picking up a pizza for myself and my best friend whose dad passed away on Wednesday. I was driving down the road towards his house when this girl in a Nissan Xterra turned, full-throttle directly into my driver-side door. She managed to push my...

Yes yes, I know, common problem and all that jazz. I've searched the forums and Google and can't really find anything about how to replace them. The only thing that I found was this: http://www.lincolnsonline.com/tech/00148.html which gives no insight whatsoever about how to get the door...

Long story short, a deer decided to run in to me the other night, and it shattered my driver-side headlight enclosure. All I need is the driver side, but I'd happily buy both sides so that the match. I've scoured eBay, lost an auction for both, and the only other auction for 2nd gen headlight...

http://www.reuters.com/article/mergersNews/idUSN1943363120090519 As much as it might suck that Chrysler has declared Chapter 11 bankruptcy, and GM is most likely going to be bought by the government, I think that it's pretty incredible that here Ford stands, more or less just fine having taken...

Anyone coming up the east coast? I live in Richmond, VA so I've only got about a 200-300 mile drive, but I'm doubting a straight-shot up I-95 would be a good idea just because of DC. I'm leaning towards I-95 to US-17, then jumping on I-81 the rest of the way. Any thoughts? Anyone passing up...

This was autoposted in the Ford News forum, but it doesn't look like very many people read that, and this is definitely worthy of reposting to the masses, in my honest opinion. If only I had the money, I'd buy one of these in the heartbeat as soon as they're officially released.

After Kenne Belle came out with their 2.8H supercharger, which actually outperformed Whipple's 3.2, many were wondering how Whipple was going to compete... Well, here's the answer. It's Whipple's new 5L supercharger. It looks like it's scheduled for release later this year at a base price...

Remember that topic awhile ago about that guy that had a garage with soooooo many awesome cars in it? Well, here's the opposite of it... http://www.supercarforums.co.uk/chatforum/viewtopic.php?t=30

I got in my car to go to work earlier today, and since it was a beautiful day, I decided, "Hey, let's open the sunroof!" It opened just fine, but when I got to work and went to close it... it moved about an inch, and stopped. It'll move back and forth in that one inch, but that's about it. I...

Hey guys-- quick replies will be much appreciated since my laptop is busted and the library only lets us use these computers for an hour. =) I started up my 1997 Mark today (85k miles), pulled out of my driveway and the ABS light turned on and the message center said "CHECK TRACTION CONTROL."...

I looked through the past few pages (which went back about 2 years, lol) and didn't see anything about this, so I figured I'd ask here. I just picked up two 10" subwoofers yesterday, and am dying to hook them up to my car to listen to (instead of listening to them in my house, haha). Where's...

Just a quick little question. My driver side lower control arm is starting to squeak on me, and I'm going to be replacing it this weekend. Would it be advisable to go ahead and change out the uppers on both sides, and the lower on the passenger side while I'm at it? I don't know if this is...

I've been trying to sell my '96 Mark VIII for a while now, so I figured I'd give you guys a chance to buy it. Don't know why I didn't think of this earlier. :o It's a base coupe, moon roof, 10-disc changer, pretty much everything except for the LSC model from what I gather. haha Oh, and it's...

There's nothing on this in my Chilton manual, figured you guys might be able to shed some light for me. I'm trying to take off my gear shift lever... most cars, there's a screw on it somewhere, but I can't find it anywhere. Please don't tell me I have to take the whole console out. x.x

Unfortunately, I have to work Saturday, but I'm hoping that that'll be able to change soon. The reason being that one of my friends has recently done a few mods to his Acura TL and wants to see what it can do... I've never been to the track before, but want to see what my (stock) '97 Mark VIII...

August of 2006, I purchased a 2004 Mustang. Four months later (January 2007), a drunk driver t-boned me in the passenger side, causing $16,000 worth of damage and hence totaling it. February of 2007, I bought my first Mark VIII, a silver 1996 in pretty shoddy aesthetic condition, but good...

Well, since I'm dressing up formal tonight, I figured... if I'm dressing in style, why not ride in style? So I finally got around to washing and waxing the new 1997 Mark VIII. aaand the interior. This is the only picture I took because any other angle shows how much crap I've thrown...

I just bought a 1997 Mark VIII a few weeks ago, and I've noticed a recurring problem for the last week or so: it's typically very difficult to start up. If it's been sitting for more than three or four hours, I have to turn the key, let it crank for 1.5-2 seconds, stop, let the electronics cut...

I found a 1997 Mark VIII for sale, that all in all, it would be cheaper to buy this one than it would be to bring mine up to this condition. Not to mention, I like the Gen 2 body style better. So when I'm test-driving it, what should I look for? Obviously the blend door, but I'm not sure what...
