  Bought Used - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By Don - March 11 - 8:20 am

  Purchased the MKZ used with 120,000 miles. vehicle is solid runs feels and looks great. Comfort is excellent. The only thing I noticed is that at lower speeds right around 20 miles per hour there is a vibration. It seems to warm up and stop doing this after it drives a while. As you speed up it stops. I’ve read that a new rear 2 piece drive shaft will fix this issue. The 2 piece drive shaft is 433 dollars for the part. In almost all cases this has fixed the problem. Wish Lincoln would make a recall but they have not done so yet. In any event I plan on replacing the driveshaft part from this website. https://www.wholesaleimportparts.com/Lincoln_MKZ_Driveshaft.php?gclid=Cj0KCQiAnuDTBRDUARIsAL41eDrjw9QT5f1Y4eykQY6ROt8YgggtZyArrxXtCoVYsACxGu_-zne2XlcaAgwVEALw_wcB Hope this review helps. The car is really fantastic. I’m very happy with it. At 120,000 miles it still looks and rides great. I will post again when my part is replaced.

  An elegant ride! - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By Ann - October 31 - 6:36 am

  I had two Jaguars prior to the MKZ and they could not hold a candle to the elegance, features and handling of the MKZ. I love the wood trim, reminds me of the Bentley interior. Will definitely buy another and would recommend to anyone.

  Best buy - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By ARGUS - September 20 - 3:20 am

  Im frugal, was researching CTS and Edmunds compare showed MKZ. I needed more rear leg room than CTS. Couldnt believe price! All compareables cost several thousand more and wanted more up front (lease). Plenty of power, I dont need manual mode shift! Air cond. seats a dream in Fla. Great ride, no problems or complaints. Ive owned for 4 months. Always driven new cars or lux trucks. Trips of 1100 mi cruise on 75mph netted 28mpg, city 19- 20mpg w/reg Gas. Nice touches like ctr consol lid slides forword for arm rest on trips. And Real wood dash not plastic.

  Surprise - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By Allen Oxender - September 12 - 2:30 pm

  We looked at several "entry" level luxury cars. Was more ten surprised with the Lincoln. I drive 40 miles each way to work, at 70-75 mph Im getting a solid consistent 29 mpg.We recently took a 1200 mile vacation and found the car the most relaxing comfortable vehicle I have ever owned. The power is equal/exceeds comparable Mercedes, BMW and Cadillac. The price was approximately $10,000. less then the above mentioned. This car is much more then a Ford upgrade.

  Nice but... - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By john - September 3 - 2:50 am

  Not a bad car but, the Lincoln LS had a lot more going for it. Where is the power articulating steering wheel? Why doesnt the "Easy Exit" go all the way back? Any kind of pull down for the trunk would be welcomed. The front of the headliner across the windshield seems to be missing a trim piece. Its kind of raggedy along the edge. No AC vents for the back seat. Even my VW has that. Mileage seems par for the niche. I do like the ride, and I like the look of it. Not a bad car just fell short here and there. Still a good buy for the price.

  A Must Drive - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By JAG - July 3 - 5:03 pm

  I really wanted a 2008 CTS before driving this car. Coming out of an 05 LS I was not considering another lincoln. I shopped cadillac first and also Audi A6. While the A6 was bigger and the Caddy had more awards Lincoln blew both away with the price. Fully loaded this vehicle prices 10-15K below the other two. The ride is quiet and has ample power. The 6 speed automatic transmission is as smooth as could be. The SYNC system is unbelievable and the THX stereo is amazing. I love driving this car and I really love all the money I saved. If you can check your ego at the door and try this car you wont be dissapointed.

  2008 MKZ Fantastic - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By Jerry - June 29 - 7:23 pm

  Im 29, 6 tall, and I was going to buy a used Zephyr because Ive never bought a new car before. I test drove the Zephyr and it was fine, then I test drove the MKZ, and I ended up buying a new 2008 MKZ! The safety features were explained, and they are thorough down to the "air-bag curtains" that drop to shield everyone from broken glass. I have a 1 yr old son. The design may be bland, but other cars like the Lexus are too. The curves of an Acura are nice, but otherwise its bland. I actually like the design. Not elegant, but luxury and strength. The chrome is nicely placed on the side mirrors and underneath windows across the doors. I love the light leather, dark gray dash, ebony wood.
