This Year's Model Updates:

In order to more closely align its vehicles with a new naming structure, Lincoln has renamed last year's Zephyr the MKZ. There are also a number of updates to the vehicle as well. Foremost is a larger, more powerful 3.5-liter V6. The bigger engine makes 263 horsepower, 42 more ponies than last year. Other changes include the availability of all-wheel drive, altered front-end styling and optional satellite radio. Finally, drivetrain warranty coverage now spans six years/70,000 miles.

Pros:
  • Powerful V6, available all-wheel drive, many standard features, comfortable ride.
Cons:

    Excellent vehicle. Its truly enjoyable to drive. I made my first highway trip and felt refreshed after a full day. I found the dual heater zones to be more effective than in other cars Ive owned.

  • Nothing Stops My MKZ - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
    By -

    I have over 25000 miles on this car and have yet to have a problem. This car is the most reliable and unstoppable car that i have ever owned. I live in NJ and have little country cottages up in upstate NY and going up those hills in a foot of snow and driving through the mud, sand, dirt, and grass has never posed a problem for my MKZ AWD. The AWD system is so advanced sometimes i think it does better than my LR4. The car is amazing in the bad weather and the engine is quite powerful. It is not a rocketship but its no slow poke either. Very few people will use the AWD system like i do for example i went up dirt/mud covered roads yesterday but it is still a nice accessory to have.

  • Excellent Handling and Smooth Ride - 2007 Lincoln MKZ

    If you had your eye on a luxury import sedan check the MKZ out, this car offers excellent handling, power and a smooth ride. The MKZ is a luxury car that is fun to drive and it has so many features for the money. In my opinion there is no better value for a mid- sized sedan.

    Ive driven in a Cadillac CTS-V 07 love the ride, less room than the Lincoln MKZ. The MKZ has a nicer interior, the power is very good thou Im used to the v8 power, this car has many toys that I love, LOve the hands free phone, you can hook your cell phone to the mp3 player press the line in button and speak through the speakers of auto awesome, cool and heat seat great. Im nearly 6 and plenty of room, front and back. I just miss my Lincoln ls the v8 power, but this car has enough power that Im very happy with this car.

  • A good start - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
    By -

    I am a prior Lincoln owner and a most recent Toyota Avalon owner. So far the two are about equal with the Lincoln feeling more solid. Acceleration is good, but the Avalon seemed quicker. Lincoln feels better on the long trips. Large back seat seemed wasted in the Avalon which has less trunk space. Lincoln handles better around the curves.

  • Compare one - 2007 Lincoln MKZ

    Im really impressed with the MKZs styling and overall design. The ride is smooth but stable though acceleration isnt as strong as the Acura or Lexus I test drove.The interior is clean and well laid-out with everything within easy reach and easy to see. The THX certified stereo has nice sound. Hours of MP3s can be loaded into the 6 disk player. I have to say, for the price, I feel you cant beat the options (standard or optional) that are available. Theres lot of American cars that really do compare in quality to the Japanese. Theyll have a tough row to hoe to convince everyone to pass up the Acura or Lexus lines but I think theyre well on thier way.

  • Love it! - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
    By -

    I bought this car four days ago after researching it and the Zephyr for about a year. So far, I am in love. Everyone coments on how nice the car is. It really turns heads! My only complaint so far is that the trunk can be awkward to close without leaving a huge hand print on the glossy black paint.

  • Almost Perfect... - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
    By -

    I did a lot of research before leasing an MKZ. In terms of style, features, and AWD, it is a great deal. This is the first American car Ive owned, and so far Im very satisfied. Obviously Lincoln still has a stodgy image to overcome, but its on well on its way with the MKZ.

  • Happy owner - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
    By -

    I purchased my MKZ in April 2007, and currently have 34,000 miles on it. I get about 22 mpg average and at least 27 mpg on the road. I have gotten as high as 30 mpg on flat terrain with no headwind. The car has an elegant interior, and I have had no mechanical problems of any Kind. The on/off switch on the radio broke. That was under warranty, and they replaced the entire radio, claiming you cannot order just the plastic switch cap. The handling is excellent, acceleration is excellent. I drive, on the highway, about 70 to 74 mph (speed limit 70) The car has plenty of acceleration at that speed, allowing a fast and safe pass of slower cars on two lane roads.

  • Great Car - 2007 Lincoln MKZ

    Great ride, very comfortable handles like a sports car with a large luxury car ride. Very smooth over the road. Great car, fun to drive and great to look at.
