Got a Silver Frost 96 and I love it. 93K miles and it still looks and drives like new. I did all the air ride bags and valves and shocks/mounts in the rear just to be on the safe side since I take this car on long trips during the summer and didn't want any surprises. I also changed out the yellow headlights for the LSC optional HID's and that made a big difference in seeing as well as looking super cool at night. The cars, IMO, are fast, nimble and stylish. Somewhat picky as to tires and wheels. I spent a good deal of time getting the right combo of tires/wheels to ride good. Indexing the tire to the rim as well as a road force balance is almost a must do if you want to have it ride like glass. I would recommend the Mark VIII to anyone that is willing to get involved in the car. Maintenace and tweeking are just part of owning a extraordinary car. If you want a common car with few probs., then the Mark is not for you. Yes, they have their quircks, but when they are right, they are well worth it. Faster than others think, rides good and still gets 27 MPG on the interstate.
