Cadillac CTS vs. Lincoln LS

[notfred]

Which would you choose?

I'd get the Lincoln with the 32V 3.9L V8

 

[conjur]

Lincoln...I just don't like that edgy look of the new Cadillacs.

 

[Damage]

I rented an LS from Hertz for my honeymoon, the thing is really nice.. decked out 6 cd changer in dash and power everything.. Haven't check the cts yet, but it looks to "tall" for me.. if it was lower and wider it might have a shot.

 

[Ameesh]

as much as i like cadillacs i dont like their new boxy look, id go with the LS

 

[boyRacer]

I'll ruin the streak and go with the cadillac... their lemans project... even though they sucked... did wonders to become a little more edgy.

We need more car threads people...

 

[Vampirrella]

id go with the lincoln.. rented one and it was one great car

You have to compare the V6 LS to the CTS.

LS

 

[Mr N8]

The Lincoln. My choice is mostly because I like the way it looks. I've never been in one, so for what its worth, you have my opinion.

Ditto. Haven't been in one, but I think it's a great looking car. Reminds me a lot of the Mitsubishi Diamante's late 90s body style (always liked that one) but with smoother lines.

 

[thomsbrain]

i'd take the lincoln. although i'd never buy one for real.

 

[Tominator]

I actually think the new Caddy looks refreshing, but the LS is my choice...

 

[Angrymarshmello]

The Lincoln LS, preferably the LS8 over the LS6, but only the LS6 comes with a manual

My grampa almost got the V6 LS... he is 82...

It didnt make me like the car much more..

lol

 

[Liviathan]

I have a Cadillac CTs and can say is one hell of car. Perfomance wise is great...engine power is incredible. And the suspension holds...

 

[Mr.IncrediblyBored]

The CTS is a better drive. Caddy for me.

 

[WinkOsmosis]

G35.

CTS

Lincoln is WAY too underpowered.

Lincoln, and what are you talking about? The LS has a 280HP V8. The CTS has a little 3.0 liter 220HP V6. Even the base LS has a 232HP V6.

CTS. My family owns one, drives nice, the only problem I have with it is that the view through the rear window is very constricting, making it annoying when you are in reverse. Unlike many, I like how it looks.

 

[Squisher]

Has anyone driven both?

The V6 in the Lincoln is a "little" 3.0L as well. And thats what I'm comparing it too.

Last years version (which is what I'm comparing it too) was WAY too sluggish. I would take last years CTS over it any day.

Why compare last years model? The CTS is a '03. The LS with the 232HP V6 is a '03 as well. Apples to apples

Besides, the CTS looks like ass and the interior is sh!tty as hell. At least Ford upgraded the interior on the LS for '03 and it looks a lot better than that dog CTS. The CTS has easily got to be one of the ugliest sedans on the road (well, that's a common thing for GM).
