Pro: Very comfortable Very smooth ride for a sedan especially on the highway Low maintenance Con: Dislike the navigation system. The map has to be updated often and it's not easy to do or cheap. I stopped after a couple of updates.

I bought my MKZ all wheel drive with just under 18000 miles, it's an all-wheel drive panoramic sunroof, the car extremely comfortable.. it's been a while since they on the Ford, don't laugh the last one I own was an LTD.. the car handles excellent I get good gas mileage, it's got a lot of great safety features, it's got really good technology, the all wheel drive is superb it handles great in the snow and rain. My honest reading from 1 to 10 I give it 8.5, there's very few cars that you could rate a perfect score.

Never a Better Car

2018 Lincoln MKZ Reserve 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6A)

Love the 2018 Lincoln MKZ from the day I bought it. Now, I only have 43,500 miles on my car but it’s never given me an ounce of trouble. It has so many convenient features, many of each I never thought of by now find very appreciated. I have the 4 cylinder turbo that is pretty fuel efficient, even typical stop and go driving in town (20-21 mpg) on 87 octane & between 27-32mpg in level terrain at 50-55 mph. Car is smooth riding, quiet and great handling. Essentially, I just love my Lincoln MKZ & treat it like a “ new born baby”. A “Creampuff”!

Liked it enough to buyout my lease

I've driven my Lincoln for 3 1/2 years and have 32,000 miles on it.Nearing the end of my lease I drove many other cars and decided I'd be better off buying out my lease. Service has been great. I live 20-25 miles from the dealer. Lincoln offers to drive to your home, pickup your car in for service, give you a loner, then reverse the process.

2017 MKZ Best looking car in its class

The car is beautiful inside and out . Ride is superior, as is steering and brakes. The anti collision feature is worthless. Does not slow down or stop until within a foot of obstacle. Should work as well as braking for cruise control.
