Vehicle Description
When the Lincoln Mark VIII came along in 1993, it radically
differed from anything we had seen from Ford's luxury division
before. Longer, wider, and obviously more distinctively styled,
this 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC we have for you today sports its
original Silver Frost paint and has just 41,268 actual miles on its
odometer, making it a pristine example of this unique piece of
automotive history. This Luxury Sport Coupe represents a
high-performance grand tourer that outdid its lesser Standard trim
sibling thanks to a power boost and shorter rear axle gears, making
it surprisingly quick off the line for a luxury cruiser.
Inside, we find a Light Graphite-colored cockpit-style leather
interior featuring plush yet supportive six-way power adjustable
bucket seats separated by a storage console armrest. Contrasting
woodgrain trim highlights the central console and meaty four-spoke
steering wheel while power locks, windows, mirrors, and sunroof
provide all of the modern amenities required for riding in style.
The stock head unit has been replaced with an upgraded AM/FM/CD/AUX
Bluetooth-enabled touchscreen, which powers a trunk-mounted set of
subwoofers and matching amp to provide even more entertainment than
originally available in the late-90s.
Under that long, swoopy hood, we find a 4.6-liter DOHC "InTech" V-8
engine (designed to compete with Cadillac's then-new Northstar V-8,
among others). Power from that modular small block is funneled
through a 4R70W four-speed automatic transmission before heading
out to the 3.27-geared rear end. Producing a healthy 290 horsepower
and 295 pound-feet of torque when new, this LSC could hustle from
0-60 mph in just a few ticks over seven seconds, an impressive feat
for a well-insulated four-seater that tips the scales at almost
3,800 pounds.

Designed to be the pinnacle of posh, this 1997 Lincoln Mark VIII
LSC rides on a fully independent air suspension that feels as
though you are riding on a cloud high above the frenetic cacophony
of the highway below. Only about half of all Mark VIII models
(approximately 16,805) made for the 1997 model year were built with
the upgraded LSC trim. With no way to know precisely how many are
still out there, it is safe to assume you will be hard-pressed to
find another example like this one. Low mileage and a design that
has not been replicated since, if you want to make an entrance,
then this is the car you've been looking for. Don't wait, call
