Review

Traded 2006 Zephyr after 53,000 100% trouble free miles for a 2010 MKZ AWD with "Ultimate" pkg . 2006 Zephyr was one of the best cars I've ever owned. Was going to just hold on to it until I drove the 2010 MKZ. UNBELIEVABLE!!!! What an amazing difference in every aspect. The 2010 MKZ is truly a worldbeater. AWD with trac control is as sure footed as a cat. The car is fast, with an incredible ride and is very quiet. Has autostick, bluetooth, Microsoft sync, BLIS, etc. Ultimate package affords every luxury option available on a beautiful car. This car will have Lexus, Mercedes, Acura, etc. totally shaking in their boots. Any non-believers, all I can say is drive one; it'll shut you up.

Favorite Features

Sync, BLIS, rear camera, THX II sound is mind blowingly good, 10 gig music jukebox, i-Pod and mem stick inputs, Nav system that is best in industry, power, comfort, autostick, superb handling, unbelievable value for the money and of course the AWESOME, unparalleled Lincoln ride. The total package!!

Suggested Improvements

None. It's perfect.

Review

I have driven this car for 2000 miles and have found no issues or concerns. The level of finish and comfort are excellent. AWD was not available on all competing brands.

Favorite Features

This car incorporates the best technology currently available in terms of safety, management of climate, sound, navigation and communications and does it all with an ease of use which surpasses competing brands.

Suggested Improvements

Gas mileage should be better in this day and age. I would like to the ecoboost engine made available.

2010 MKZ - what a surprise

Review

I now have 2,000 miles on my 2010 MKZ and can say it is terrific. The Ultimate Pkg is fantastic. The BLIS systems is great. The THX sound blows you away. The MKZ handles well, the build quality is as good as a Lexus. I traded in my Lexus SC430 on the MKZ because I needed a sedan, so a Lexus IS and GS was my first test drive. Both were great, but were lacking in trunk space/storage space. I loved the Acura TL, but it didn't fit in my small garage, and the Caddy CTS and BMW 528ix didn't have a rear camera and were pricey. Now that I own my MKZ, I know I selected the right car. Lincoln has definitely turned the corner on quality and is equal or better that its competitors.

Favorite Features

BLIS, THX, rear camera, great quiet interior, regular gas with good pickup, good trunk space. Overall quality.

Suggested Improvements

Put the EcoBoost in this baby and it will rock and sign me up now.

Review

This car is highly underrated, and I am glad. I love being one of the only cars like this on the road- I get looks every day. I test drove/researched the Maxima, G37, XF, C class, 328/335, TL-S and A4. This is BY-FAR the best value for the money, and surprisingly great handling. I got this vehicle for cheaper than ALL of the above vehicles, while still getting more features than many above. And believe me, there is still plenty of acceleration for those in doubt. I have owned Lexus, Acura and Nissan and the build quality rivals all of the top names. Only quibble is the gas mileage, but probably b/c of my leadfoot. Great job Lincoln!

Favorite Features

Sync, 14-speaker THX sound, Navi, AWD, remote start, heated AND cooled seats, smooth ride...oh yeah, Rain-sensing wipers too!

Suggested Improvements

Push-button start. Improve gas mileage. Heated steering wheel. Auto rear windows.

Review

I bought my Lincoln MKZ on 5-20-09 and I can't stay out of the car. So many features to enjoy, From the sat radio to the snyc my ride, I am enjoying for free for 6 months to the beautiful interior and comfort, and the Navigation System is just so special. I have never driven a car that handles so well and feels so good under my hands. I have always had a Lincoln but this one far exceeds all the others. And so darn stylish. Great car. Take one for a ride, and you'll be hooked.

Favorite Features

Comfort, radio, navigation system, and snyc

Suggested Improvements

A little larger inside

MKZ almost there

Review

I traded in my 2006 Zephyr, and this car has some major improvements. I have 1250 miles on this vehicle and am not happy with gas milage. Have averaged 19.7 mpg with a 50% combination of Highway and around town driving. The interior leather and Dash have been upgraded and now feel like a car in the entry level Luxury Line. Engine is very responsive but there is some difficulty starting without a jerk. Seats are very comfortable and the leather is so much nicer then before. Ride is nt as soft as a Lexus but not bad. Some buttons are hard to reach and they are not placed conveniently. They all feel the same to touch. Engine is quiet. Rode noise is more then expected.

Favorite Features

Fine leather seating. Sound system is best I have heard in any car. Fold down rear seats for additional storage from trunk. Ambient lighting is a really nice touch. Reverse camera is great aide when backing out in mall parking lots. Dash is very Attractive. Navigation system with voice sync great

Suggested Improvements

Quiet down road noise. Keyless entry and start. Power tilt & telescoping steering wheel. Should be able to download ipod music to hard drive in vehicle. Ride could be a little smother. Paint does not seem as good as on 2006 Zephyr. Power down trunk lid. Additional head air bags for driver, passenger

Review

I have now owned my 2010 Black MKZ ultimate sport, for about 24 hours. It is a blast. I traded in my 2006 Zephyr, and this car is soo much more car than it was. I love every feature of this car. The ride is a little stiff with the sport package, but once the tire gloss is off of the tires it will be amazing. :-)

Favorite Features

Navigation system, with Sync. Handles like it is on rails. Reverse camera is not really needed, but it is a nice feature. Air conditioned seats :-)

Suggested Improvements

Keyless entry and start would be nice.
