I bought this 2011 Lincoln MKZ used with just over 23,000 miles for under $20k! Car has everything you could want in a luxury car, leather, 10 speaker surround sound, rear-back up, navigation with Sync and bluetooth, chrome, etc. For a car of similar size and quality in it's class you would easily be paying $7-12k more. Value is unbeatable. As for drive quality, I have test-drove an A4, TL, C300, and 328i as well as previously owned a Cadillac CTS. They all had their quirks and pros and cons. This car stands up to all of them. It may not be the best of the best, but the value in the package is unbeatable.

I have had my MKZ for 6 months now and overall it is a great car. I was looking for a comfortable car that kept me connected to the road and the MKZ did that better then CTS, BMW or Mercedes for the dollar. If you spend allot of time in the car as I do 8500 miles already and you are 6'4" this is a great vehicle. I am getting 21 MPG. The car is also very quiet. Navigation is also accurate and speech access makes it easy to use wile driving. Plenty of power both off the start and passing however transmission gets rough when you get on it. Trans is smooth during normal driving. You have to pull out the headlight switch to turn on driving lights this is poor placement as your knee turns it off.

Competition to the Germans

Got delivery of my AWD, 2011 MKZ with 102 executive package. Took my German boss who has a BMW 550i fully loaded for a ride. He couldn't believe it. Germans, and specially my boss are honest in their comments and are not used to giving compliments. He was surprised to say the least. In a nutshell the car is absolutely responsive, a mix between the spark of a BMW and the handling of AWD Audi. My boss compared it to a Mercedes E class for the ride and comfort. The good news is what you get for the money. I cannot tell anything about reliability as the car is brand new, but I am happy with the choice I made.

So much to like but sadly, too much spent on it

Bought the car at 110,000 miles for $8000. It was a great deal. I have the awd sport model. It looks great and has any feature that could be desired from heat/cooled seats, Bluetooth, navigation, etc. however… About 140,000 miles, the engine started knocking. New engine needed. Not the worst thing in the world, I bought it for less than trade in at the time. $12,000 for a car now with 42,000 miles? Not too bad. But still. It was $4000 I didn’t want to spend. 5000 miles later, the brakes start acting up. New front brake assemblies required. They were shot! New calipers, rotors, brake pads. About $600. About 5000 miles later, the differential is leaking. $400 repair. Along with a power stealing leak, $140. Soon to need to be replace, struts and sway bars. I love this car in the way it looks and feels. But yikes, at what point do I call it and part ways? All of this comes from my previous car, a 2004 Pontiac vibe, which had zero problems. I mean zero. I drove it for 200,000 miles and not one problem Ever. So it’s hard comparing what I had to this.
