Wolf, I understand your thoughts but really, you're talking about an old car that needs work. Of course 100 comes with some drawbacks. Your Lincoln had the laws of physics working for it. Too bad you live so far away, I'd take you for a 100 jaunt in mine... Those who know me and the car will testify, its a good one. Not perfect, but well sorted. Took a friends 996 Porsche for a 140 mph spin. Now that was fast, and it got there instantly.
