I think the overall look of the exterior is very nice...a little BMW-ish, especially the headlight treatment. Never driven one, or looked at the inside, though.

two of my friends have them one is a 6 cylinder white and has a body kit and it looks phat. the other is black and is an 8 cylinder with flowmaster exhaust. i can easily beat the six but the v8 is almost as fast as my car. but i think the engine sucks! why? cause my friend blew up his v8. i would get a cls if you drive hard.

I drove a loaded V8. Was pretty impressed with the handling but I think it lacks power. Very nice interior and quiet.
Overall pretty darn nice car.

POS,I drove one from rental car company last month,bounch of interior rattles,and I wasn't impressed by that V8 engine,252hp
0-60 around 7.5sec
personally,I think an 300M is even better than this car.


Yup,it's an Ford

Ford engineers tout this here at the local watering holes as one of the most technically advanced, engineered and assembled vehicle Ford makes...
They are bragging, and dont even realize they should be embarassed...

Based on looks alone I think it is a nice ride.

I think you're up way too early for a holiday.
LS looks nice, lacks performance, but it IS a boat.

The LS is beautiful...........that said, after my '99 Cobra experience I wouldn't go near a Ford for a long time. They are having build quality problems because of all the budget trimming. They will pay out 3 BILLION in Explorer/Firestone claims alone. OUCH. By the way, the head of Ford, Jac Nasser, gets a 12 million dollar annual salary. He should be fired.

I think the car looks nice. I've heard (On the news or something) that the LS hasn't had any problems since it's release. In fact they had an article in SCC with an Ls v8 with a 50 shot of NoS! The LS looks bad ass. Possibly my next car.

I think all US automakers should be embarrassed about the lousy cars they produce.
The LS is not bad... specs wise, but like all American cars its only good for 40,000 miles. Then trim starts falling off, and parts start dropping like flies. My dad had a Mark VIII, and it was a disaster.
