Lincoln LS
The Lincoln LS is a mid-size luxury car which was manufactured and marketed by the Lincoln Motor Company for the 2000-through-2006 model years, having entered production in June 1999. Primarily sold in the North American market, it is a four-door sedan with seating for five occupants. The LS has a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout and either a V8 or V6 engine, with the latter configuration initially offered with a manual transmission. Described as a sport sedan, it has a near 50/50 weight distribution, and aimed to provide a blend of luxury and sport to attract a new generation of buyers to the Lincoln brand. Produced at a time when Lincoln formed a part of Ford's Premier Automotive Group division. the LS shared the Ford DEW98 platform with the Jaguar S-Type and the eleventh-generation Ford Thunderbird. Trim levels ranged from the base V6 model to the Special Edition V8 LSE trims in 2004, with revised front and rear fascia, taillights and foglights, and front grille. LS models were manufactured at Ford's Wixom Assembly Plant until production ended on April 3, 2006, and the plant was idled as part of Ford's The Way Forward. Approximately 262,900 were manufactured, including 2,331 with manual transmissions and 1,500 LSE editions.
