I am definitely not the target consumer for Lincoln as I am well under age 65 (under 30, actually), but after owning an AccordV6, an Acura TL and a Lexus ES, and putting 100k miles on each, I drove the MKZ. I was initially drawn by the price, but when I drove it, I was hooked. I have had it 2 months (and 5k miles) and it's by far the best car I have owned insofar as initial quality and handling. The SYNC system really works and rarely misunderstands a command. Oh and get this: I bought the base model-- absolute no additional options. Very very impressed with the car, the value and the deal I was able to get on the vehicle. Looking forward to my next Lincoln in 2011!

First time experience with Lincoln

This is my first time with a Lincoln vehicle. It edged out the Camry XLE narrowly. Generally speaking, I am very pleased and am quite satisfied. After test driving the Camry XLE, BMW X3, and Lincoln MKX, the MKZ emerged as the better choice.

Best Ever

This is simply the best car I've ever owned - and I've owned many. I just got out of an '04 Lincoln LS, which was great. I wasn't pleased that Lincoln stopped making them and decided to shop the field. I test drove many. I went with the MKZ and could not be happier. There is really no comparison. There is nothing that comes close to the MKZ at this price point. If you're even slightly considering the MKZ, don't hesitate. If not, you should. You will be shocked at how great this car is. By far the nicest, most comfortable, quietest ride I've had in over 30 years of driving.

Beautiful looking car. Needs more interior head room for anyone taller then 6'. Trunk lid should be easier to operate. Powerful, comfortable. No mechanical failures 2400 miles. Good buy for the money so far. This is my 3rd Ford product.

A Must Drive

I really wanted a 2008 CTS before driving this car. Coming out of an 05 LS I was not considering another lincoln. I shopped cadillac first and also Audi A6. While the A6 was bigger and the Caddy had more awards Lincoln blew both away with the price. Fully loaded this vehicle prices 10-15K below the other two. The ride is quiet and has ample power. The 6 speed automatic transmission is as smooth as could be. The SYNC system is unbelievable and the THX stereo is amazing. I love driving this car and I really love all the money I saved. If you can check your ego at the door and try this car you won't be dissapointed.
