Absolutely the best car I've ever owned. It's my first 'luxe' car, but compared to the others (like Cadillac and Tesla), I was thrilled and still am everytime I get into the car. Favorite feature is the interior and heated steering wheel. There are two cars I will always remember. My first car, and my first Lincoln.

Love the 3.0 AWD

I have had this 2018 Reserve 3.0 AWD for a week and love it so far. (No selection for 3.0 in review) While I am not the spirited driver I was 20 years ago, having the power this vehicle has is assuring. Yes, the 400 hp is more than you need on a daily basis, there are times it comes in handy like merging on to interstate, passing an impaired/tired driver quickly, and having a little fun on the twisties! I went from a truck to this vehicle so naturally it seems a little small. I bought without driving an MKZ before and there are not a ton of reviews online about it. But the ride is so dang smooth it was worth the considerable risk. Plus, it still has factory warranty and I bought extended warranty because you want one with any vehicle that has a turbo. I suggest the 3.0 awd version because the v6 can handle the cars weight better than a v4- over the long haul it means less repairs. I cannot wait for my road trips coming up this summer and will revise if anything changes. I am excited to try out the massaging seats on my 2 day, 19 hour total drive in a few weeks. This car has good comfort for front passengers, and the 20 speaker system is easily the best car stereo I have ever had. The 3.0 is a special engine and comes with a heavier transmission than the v4. If looking for used vehicles, check this one out as the value is pretty good- you can get the 3.0 over the competitors which only gets you a 2.0 in this price range, plus repair costs will be cheaper than the German models. Sure the German models may seem a bit prettier inside, but they are a pain to repair- not only price but in parts. Aside from not having a HUD, you can get this car with 98% of the features a German machine has. Am I a fan boy? Each time I ride in my new used car I get closer and closer to fan boy status.

A Genuine 💤 Sleeper

Had an MKT which I purchased mainly for the 3.5 twin turbo when the SHO was discontinued. But the third row size wasnt what I wanted. Kept looking as I loved the Lincoln luxury and comfort and came accross an MKZ 3.0. Its a fully loaded reserve AWD with 400 HP and 400 torque. The car goes 0 to 60 in 4.8 seconds, incredible. In my internet search out 150 miles from home there were 61 MKZ models for sale, but only 3 that had the 3.0 which was a nearly 4000 dollar option. Its a supercar hidden as a luxury grocery getter and so rare the 3.0 is not a choice in the listings. Couldn’t be happier 😁
