Overview & Reviews
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.
- Powerful V6, available all-wheel drive, many standard features, comfortable ride.

Fully satisfied - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By Bill - June 12 - 3:53 pmWe bought this car about 1 year ago. It has more than fulfilled our expectations (and we have experienced about every other car in and around its class). Not a single problem so far. Very smooth, comfortable, quiet, and secure ride. Solidly built. No irritating vibrations, rattles, wind noises, or transmission quirks. Wonderful suspension engineered to minimize the feel of the road a.k.a. riding on a farm wagon, that several other cars in its class are lauded for (quasi-professional reviewers apparently have a unique sense of whats appealing to many drivers who might consider buying a near luxury car). Excellent acceleration and power for other than the Datona 500. Highway ~ 27.5 mpg.

Bravo America! - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By Jackie - March 29 - 8:50 pmThis car proves we can compete with the imports! It has a much more luxurious ride than most cars in its class. Over the road it feels a little light, but overall I am really impressed by the quality both in and out.

America can compete - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By Elrod - March 11 - 5:06 amI purchased the AWD model in August of this year. I have driven the car for around 5500 miles so far and I have to say that I am extremely pleased. I drove the car in some harsh weather as well and this car is solid. The car takes the bad roads with no problem and asks for more. You really feel safe while driving in the elements. Lincoln did a great job with this car!! I havent had any problems with the car so far and I have wanted to post this message to help others in deciding whether to buy this car or noit like I did. As far as fuel economy, could be better. Unless your driving everyday on the highway, you will get an average of around ~20 MPG.

Good Value - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By Very Happy! - February 12 - 7:33 pmThis is not your grandfathers Lincoln. The sporty design is just sassy enough, yet restrained enough to be classy. I replaced my SUV and Volvo with this vehicle and found it superb in terms of overall reliability, style, handling. I get 22 mpg and the AWD performed competently in mountain/winter driving. Very pleased with it and would buy it again.

Excellence! - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By Dianna - September 28 - 12:46 pmI love my MKZ. I gave top dollar for top car. This is an awesome ride. I only wish the trunk would raise up when button pushed. I love the THX system navigation and the maple trim in my model. This is just great. Cant wait till the MKR is out.

I tried a bunch, MKZ fit me - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By dave1968 - September 20 - 1:43 amI wanted a mid-sized sedan, and ended up looking at 35 vehicles and driving 22 times in a 5 month period. MKZ was the best fit for me, and after 1500 miles I cant find flaws. Mileage is averaging 21, and got 27.3 on a highway-only trip at mostly 70mph. I didnt opt for the NAV system or THX sound, a small Garmin GPS unit fits fine in the console cupholder. Step-in height is more comfortable than a TL, and usable space much better than an IS. Console and instruments arent trying to be the space shuttle, just useful and tasteful and readable. Were looking forward to feeling the AWD in snow, and a circle-lake-superior trip. All cars involve compromise, MKZ is one to look at.

Superb value - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By Dr. RHK - July 20 - 12:53 pmSuperb value for the money with all the typical luxury features which would cost $3-6K more on comparable models. I gave up a BMW 740i [drove for 8 years] and have driven numerous BMW 300 series. I was looking for a smaller car since my kids are grown up and wanted to downsize with the following criteria: a] reliable b] safe c] fun to drive. The computer came up with BMW, Audi, Acura & Lincoln. When I saw the Lincoln, I thought you must be joking, but I researched all, test drove and picked the Lincoln. Its a choice I have not regreted; I am enormously satisfied with the handling, comfort, THX system and reliability. Its a sharp, sporty luxury car. Firm ride so might not fit all buyers.

lacks power - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By andyI - December 30 - 3:23 pmI had a 2003 LS which had much more power than the MKZ. I bought this car with every option, love everything about this car but it definitely seems underpowered.

Nicest car ive ever owned - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By DAN KANE - December 24 - 6:33 pmSpectacular handling, very comfortable, fun to drive, a ton of horsepower, very well redesigned from the 06 zephyr. Nicer riding than the 5 series and the avalon. I am coming out of a maxima, and it does not compare to the ride and quality of a ride than the mkz. If you are looking for a car with all of these specs you have to look at this vehicle. One of a kind.

not perfect but very good !!!! - 2007 Lincoln MKZ
By mperkin - October 29 - 8:23 pmOnly complaints are- car needs an auto trunk close to keep from scratching trunk lid and the seat cushion should be a few inches longer. Other than these two observations. I really like this auto- some super looking interior.
