To many issues, buy new and keep a warranty
There are many things that make this car inconvenient, 1 battery in truck, 2, radiator/coolant, unless it in by a Lincoln mechanic you could find your self on side of road do to over heating . The overflow tank can easily crack do to it location, if you don't know how to bleed the over flow tank after adding coolant it will over heat . I do have to give it 1 good thing about it , in spite of what little I told you it can be a nice ride.

1 Owner Car! Good and Durable.
Bought new in 1999 and was one of the first to have the Sport package. Took decent care of it and it is pretty reliable considering I was a younger guy without the money to spend on proper maintenance. I haven't driven it for about 8 years due to needing to repair some accident damage and other relatively minor issues. I've been able to do most of the work myself and get some good salvage parts and I've gotten lots of compliments (even from our mailman!) and I'm not a mechanic at all. Prior to this, the most I've done was change a brake or rotor. Would recommend only if you just happen to like the LS. There are lots of sites to help in case you wanted to get a used one and rejuvenate! Plan on keeping it and making it a classic.

IAlso some of the parts are not available anymore
This car it's very comfortable to ride in but it has a lot of problems with'its cooling system. It also has problems with oil leaking into the spark plugs and causing the coils to go bad. The cooling system has a hydraulic fan that runs off the power steering pump these parts are not available new and very expensive. The fan solenoid alone it's $250 and I couldn't get one. I had to buy a used one. Unless you have a lot of money you're going to be better off with a car that is more common like a Honda or Toyota.

2000 Lincoln LS Sport Package
Car is currently not running but bought new back in 99. Still holding on to fix it back up and will always be a favorite. Needed a new transmission at 150k miles and a new engine around 180k. Had to put another in around 210k (think the guy ripped me off...ended up going to jail). Not sure what's wrong with it now, but still holding on. Good car, have had coolant issues in the past. Requires the dealer to bleed system and requires dealer to fix certain things especially if you have the V8.

Great but exspensive upkeep
This car is a dream to drive when they are not broke down. If you keep up with patience and make sure you keep an eye on the coolant res and replace things that are old and brittle this car is wonderful. Make sure the timing has been done and upgraded to the better parts though.
