  Solid - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By schuhman - July 20 - 5:33 pm

  I drove the Infiniti M and the Acura, comparing them to the MKS. After the drives it was a slam dunk, I bought the Lincoln. I is a quick of the line, it looks better and the options closed the deal. I would recommend the care to anyone that wants great style, smooth ride and solid performance with every option. The sync system is great and I have downloaded every cd I like into the jukebox. The hands free nav, radio and systems are the cherry on top. My kids enjoy the dual moonroof and the adaptive headlights are a bonus I did not expect to enjoy as much I do. I put dark tint and it finished the car perfectly.

  Are you kidding me? - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By Gary - June 7 - 6:46 am

  There is no car on the road better than this one for the price. I decided to trade from my Caddy CTS and was ready to go back to previously owned models, and Ive had them all. Infinity FX, Acura TL, Mercedes S and E series, Lexus LS, I could go on and on. If anyone had told me Id end up with a Lincoln MKS Id have laughed. I had decided on a fully loaded Lexus GS350 when I drove this car. My wife loved it, I was blown away by the technology and the combination of luxury and handling. Whats the rap from the Editors? Good grief, there is no car on the road that compares at this price. Perfect combination of luxury and performance from a guy that loves both. Best car Ive ever had.

  Ford Hits One Out - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By JD - March 7 - 2:00 am

  This is the car that shows when pushed to the wall Ford can put out a very competative product. Before purchsing the MKS, I test drove the CTS, DTS, ES,Lucerne and Jaguar XF and I can say that the MKS has the best driving characteristics of the bunch save the XF. The car is very aggressive in appearance and performance and will surprise many with its accelration and handling. Dont be dissapointed by the 275 HP six cyllinder power plant as it is more than adequate. You will not lose this car in the parking lot. People who ask me about the car are surprised that this is a Lincoln. The car is worth serious consideration in this segment and with 1200 miles on the odom mph is above 21 mpg

  Lincoln got it right! - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By popeye1250 - February 21 - 11:40 am

  Traded in the venerable Mercury Grand Marquis for the MKS and thought I was spoiled with the Mercurys ride. This car has a supurb ride and handles like a sportscar at the same time. The interior is more roomy than a Caddy STS and very comfortable! Excellent ergonomics! The "Bridge of Weir" leather from Scotland is absolutely the best and the recycled ash on the dash is exquisite! This car will go far faster than Ill ever need to go but its fun to punch it at 25 mph and be doing 60 in about 3 seconds. Everything, paint, fit, finish, electronics, sound is incredable! And they tell me that after I have a few k on it that it will get up to 29 mpg highway. This is how cars should be built

  Fabulous Car! - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By Keith Dunbar - November 29 - 10:26 pm

  Really delighted with this car. Ive owned Audis, Alfas and lately a BMW 7. This car is right up there with them and more fun in many ways. It feels every bit the luxury car that it is. On the freeway it is an effortless, remarkably quiet cruiser. In town easy to drive. Overall very comfortable, great cabin; a nice place to be. Lexus watch out, this car is every bit as good as your equivalent GS430; in fact it is better looking, has more style and breaks from the bland, mundane approach of its Japanese rival. Superb car all round, thoroughly recommend it. Test drive one and youll be amazed. Remember, it is a luxury car; dont be put of by the journalists that dont measure it that way.

  I love my car - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By Wade B - September 17 - 1:30 pm

  I have had several cars including a 1995 Toyota Camry, a 2008 Mercedes E350, etc. This is by far my favorite. I plan on keeping it awhile.

  Little more thought would go a long way - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By daveh923 - August 19 - 11:16 pm

  I have owned this car for a few months now and have to say it was an adventure with good and bad sides. First off it takes a masters degree to learn to drive. The car is not simple and will surprise you with the abilities it has. For instance, you can set cruise control at 75mph and in traffic it will drive itself stopping and going. Technology wise it is brilliant. You can get traffic/weather on demand with the touch of a button. The power is unbelievable, but the downfall is that sport mode will jerk you around like a teenager learning manual. All in all, Im happy with my purchase and will probably buy another one in the future. Lincoln really did a wonderful job.

  Unhappy owner - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By fluffypuppy - August 3 - 11:50 am

  After my Lincoln Continental I have high expectation when I bought my Lincoln MKS. I wish I never did. With the same problem I had to go 3 times back, before the dealership find the problem and then took a week to fix it. It was a seal leaked the the seat circulated the burned oil into the cabinet. I suffered head ache as result for months. Also the car is underpowered, slow; the shift does not shift timely, while the engine roaring. When I go down on a hill when other drives push the break, i had to puss the gas in order to keep up with the traffic; going up on a hill my car was not abble to go up I had to manually switch back the gear. I am disappointed in this car.

  $45000 car & 10 cent key fob - 2009 Lincoln MKS
  By RBE - July 13 - 10:33 am

  I purchased the MKS car after coming out of a town car. (Im 62") After extensive research, I found the MKS to be the best luxury vehicle that provided adequate interior room and still be somewhat sporty. So far Im very please with the ride, performance and looks. The big discount also helped. Im getting about 22.1mpg in town.
