2005 Lincoln Ls - Lse Sport Sedan 4-door 3.9l Last Year Made! on 2040-cars
Ellettsville, Indiana, United States
|
A very nice looking and driving car. These cars are basically Jaguar S-types with a Lincoln body, Jag engine and Ford transmission. One of the best handling cars I've ever owned! This is the rare LSE edition. The last year the LSE was offered. Unique body treatments, including unique front fascia, rocker panels, rear fascia and chrome 8 spoke wheels. Very rare! Car has been well taken care of and drives very well. Very tight. Tracks and handles like a true sports car. This chassis, the DEW98 from Ford, was the basis for the '05 up Mustang and was shared by not only the Jag S, but the Ford Thunderbird as well. A great chassis! The interior is near new. No flaws are visibly present. The drivers seat shows minimal wear, but no discoloration or holes, just slight wrinkling you'd expect from a car with half the mileage. The exterior has one rear door that was refinished. The match could have been better, but it's not enough for me to worry about. The front fascia has the typical bug/rock chips you would expect from 8 years and 118k miles of driving. The rear fascia has one spot on it from a car wash that could use touched up. All VERY minor stuff.
The car had a very clean Ford Oasis report and all maintenance was done up through the warranty period ending. The car has newer Toyo Proxes-4 tires on it. They have about 6k miles, and were recently rotated. I use Mobil One synthetic in all my cars and the oil was recently changed. If your looking for a great sports sedan, that looks expensive and drives like a Porsche for less than eight grand, then this is your car. Newer Brembo slotted/drilled rotors have been installed along with ceramic pads. The thing stops on a Canadian dime! A new Motorcraft battery was installed a couple months ago. Coil packs have just been replaced, and the dreaded transmission solenoid pack has been replaced as well. Car runs and drives like it should and then some. No disappointments! Mileage will change, as it is my daily driver. The car also has a BEL remote radar/laser detector installed ($1200 new). Works VERY well! (don't ask how I know!) Car is priced well below Kelly Blue book. Bought a new Cadillac and this has to go. Check my feedback, I've bought and sold many cars on eBay and all transactions have been very positive. Fly in and drive it home. You'll love this car! |

What will the next Presidential limo look like?
Thu, 25 Jul 2013With recent news that the Secret Service has begun soliciting proposals for a new armored limousine, we've been wondering what the next presidential limo might look like. The current machine, nicknamed "The Beast", has a design based on a car that's no longer sold: the Cadillac DTS. If General Motors gets the job again, which wouldn't be a surprise considering the government still owns a chunk of the company, the next limo's shape would likely resemble the new XTS (below, left). But Cadillac hasn't always been the go-to car company for presidential whips.
Lincoln has actually provided far more presidential limousines throughout history than Cadillac. In fact, the first car modified for Commander-in-Chief-carrying duty was a 1939 Lincoln K-Series called "Sunshine Special" used by Franklin D. Roosevelt, and the last Lincoln used by a president was a 1989 Town Car ordered for George H.W. Bush. If President Obama wanted a Lincoln today, it would likely be an amalgam of the MKS sedan and MKT crossover, as illustrated above.
And what about Chrysler? The only record we could find of a President favoring the Pentastar is Nixon, who reportedly ordered two limos from the company during his administration in the '70s, and then another one, known today as the "K-Car limo," in the '80s after he left office. Obama, however, has a personal - if modest - connection to Chryslers, having owned a 300 himself before he took office. A 300-based Beast (above, right) would certainly earn the U.S. some style points.
Cars with the worst resale value in 2022
Thu, Nov 10 2022Car values are all over the map right now. Used vehicles that were worth a small fortune earlier this year are now coming back to Earth, but the new vehicle supply remains tight. Prices are still elevated overall, but some models have seen more severe price drops. Depreciation strikes almost every model, supply constraint or not, though a few vehicles are leading the way. New research from analytics iSeeCars found that a handful of cars depreciated more than 50 percent over five years, with the BMW 7 Series dropping 56.9 percent and an average price cut of $61,923 over that time. The vehicles with the highest depreciation — or worst resale value — over five years: BMW 7 Series: -56.9% Maserati Ghibli: -56.3% Jaguar XF: -54% Infiniti QX80: -52.6% Cadillac Escalade ESV: 52.3% Mercedes-Benz S-Class: 51.9% Lincoln Navigator: -51.9% Audi A6: -51.5% Volvo S90: -51.4% Ford Expedition: -50.7% iSeeCarsÂ’ research showed that midsize trucks, sports cars, and fuel-efficient vehicles were slowest to depreciate over five years, while itÂ’s clear that luxury brands tend to lose value much faster. As iSeeCarsÂ’ Executive Analyst Karl Brauer explained, used buyers donÂ’t value high-end vehiclesÂ’ features as much as the first owners, so resale values tend to be softer. The tech and options that made the cars so expensive and appealing new donÂ’t add the same value on the used market.

The Nissan Leaf depreciated most among EVs, dropping by 49.1 percent. The average EV depreciation is 44.2 percent, with the Tesla Model S and Model X sliding in right under the bar at 43.7 and 38.8 percent, respectively. As iSeeCars notes, itÂ’s important to be vigilant when car shopping and not let your emotions win over reason. Shiny new luxury cars look great in the showroom, but you could end up taking a bath when you try selling them a few years later on.
