Damn! What wheels? Curious how they ware. @Taurusbuilder not sure if that works in this forum.
I believe those are Vossen wheels?  bigmoneycloser has them on his XSport as well.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Welcome aboard the E.B.P.F Scott,had a MKZ loaner for a few days and its a totally different machine compared to my SHO,honestly would some research before making any judgmental decisions related to the suspension,here's a link you might find beneficial on your quest and best of luck with the new ride.  Z   http://www.fordparts.com/Commerce/CatalogResults.aspx?y=2013&m=Lincoln&mo=MKS#Search
agreed,the suspension on the MKS is far superior as far comfort than the SHO.  I was going on looks alone

glock, what makes the MKS suspension superior?  Is it something that can be turned into an upgrade project for the SHO?

I know you asked Glock but I like the 2013 MKS suspension because you can adjust the shocks to comfort, normal or firm.  It really does work well if you like a soft ride around potholed streets but a firmer ride when pushing it through twisties.

Didn't the Tbird SC's have an auto-adjust suspension?  Of course I am sure it works much better in the MKS :)

exactly this. Soft when you want it. firm when it's go time....
My 97 SHO had a electronic front struts.
But it was full stiff of normal. I installed a switch inline with the fuse so I could adjust on the fly.
