Understandably, it has been criticized as a bit of a geezer car and was generally powered by lackluster engines, with transmissions still trying to figure out if you really meant to hit the gas 5 minutes ago.

Fixing a Lincoln can be as easy as shoehorning a Corvette engine into the front, such is the case with this 2002 Lincoln LS for sale in Frankfort, IN for $13,000 via craigslist. Ford is attempting to fix the lackluster sales by a marketing schmuck driven slight of hand, but intelligent folks in the aftermarket have already fixed the issue.
