  Worth considering - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By Hunter - October 15 - 5:07 am

  In short, financed an 08 in Vapor Silver w/ AWD fully loaded with 39k back in 2012. Ended up having a cracked engine block which caused a cam sensor to fail, the steering wheel to lockup and the car unable to drive at 123k miles. Sad as I liked the car. I dont have any bad feelings toward the Lincoln brand as the car was reliable aside from that incident and I dont believe that every Lincoln will have this issues. Good highlighta, Loved the styling, powerful V6 engine, great compliments about the car from strangers, how reliable the car was, AWD was helpful, ventilated seats are awesome, THX II stereo was amazing, Sync/Nav system works better than Toyota products and the quality of the paint and leather are great. Areas of improvement The ride wasnt as smooth as I had hoped, the interior materials werent great Xenon headlights could have been positioned to aim higher up and project more light as the MKS does, No folding exterior mirrors, Gas guzzler, Seats arent wide and Im a slim guy. My engine issue aside, I encourage others to give this car a shot. Ita great car.

  First time experience with Lincoln - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By Wallace - December 30 - 7:20 pm

  This is my first time with a Lincoln vehicle. It edged out the Camry XLE narrowly. Generally speaking, I am very pleased and am quite satisfied. After test driving the Camry XLE, BMW X3, and Lincoln MKX, the MKZ emerged as the better choice.

  Downgraded - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By Chris - December 13 - 9:16 am

  We traded in a 1994 6 cyl.Buick Park Avenue for the 2008 6 cyl. The PA had the most comfortable interior, GREAT gas mileage 27 mpg. All the bells and whistles. The Lincoln MKZ listed 18/28 but so ar has only 17/21. MKZ is zippy but the front seats are not comfortable on long trips. The MKZ price was about 5g more than it should have been. The MKZ is NOT the car that the Buick was. Wish we had not purchased it now that we have experienced it. Buick is much better!!

  Very nice mid-size auto - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By Dave - August 25 - 4:50 pm

  A nice mid-sized car with a very smooth ride. The MKZ has a very nice interior except for the color of the wood trim--too light. The telescoping steering wheel is a nice touch and the THX stereo system with the navigation is really great.

  Lots for Less - 2008 Lincoln MKZ
  By TW - February 4 - 4:33 pm

  Car offers just about every option in the book for a reasonable price. The SYNC system is outstanding and provides the bluetooth capability some reviewers were asking for. On the other hand there are a lot of things that say Ford/Mercury and not Lincoln. The floor mats define cheap. The seats are not comfortable for long periods. The center console is too far rearward to rest elbow when driving. Transmission sometimes gives very sudden/harsh down shifts. And worst of all, there is a very annoying powertrain vibration/resonance at 2000 rpm that produces both an audible noise and tactile feel in steering wheel/gas pedal.
