The LS is a rear-wheel-drive sedan designed to be a sporty competitor to the BMW 5-series.
Handling is agile, and the ride is firm and well controlled, not like a traditional Lincoln.
The 3.0-liter V6 is not all that quick.
The 3.9-liter V8 is stronger and the automatic transmission is Ford's smoothest.
Rear knee room is tight.
2001 brought available stability control.
The front-wheel-drive Zephyr replaced the LS for 2006.
It is a mid-sized sedan based on the Ford Fusion/Mercury Milan and shares a platform with the Mazda6.
Handling is responsive and secure, but not sporty.
The ride is firm, supple, and controlled.
Stability control is not offered.
