  These are a few of my favorite things - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Nook Schreier - September 22 - 11:46 am

  I bought my pre-owned Zephyr over 4 months ago, and I still smile when I walk up to it, its just fantastic. Its such a classy-looking car, ESPECIALLY in black, which mine is. Unfortunately, being black, the birds seem to enjoy hanging out above it... often. Its very fun to drive, though as has been pointed out repeatedly, the gas mileage leaves something to be desired. I live pretty close to work and dont drive a whole lot otherwise, so Im getting about 17mpg regular. But on the highway, I have gotten 30mpg, so thats something. Ive read reviews saying the acceleration is bad, but I havent really experienced that, if you drive it intelligently (dont slam the gas/squeal tires).

  Love my Zephyr, but ... - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By MarcusG - September 8 - 8:40 pm

  Bought the Zephyr out of auction in 2008 and really have had very few issues with this car and have driven almost 60,000 miles in two years. Very comfortable, great AC, handles well (except in snow), love the heated and cooled seats (thought the cooled seats make you feel wet) and the gas mileage is not bad at all. Have had very few issues with this car with the exception of finding tires that work and dont make a ton of noise, and tires for snow. This car does not do well in the snow without snow tires. Turning radius is horrific, though. My wifes huge SUV has a better turning radius. Im surprised there arent more complaints. Otherwise, totally satisfied.

  Great but not Terrific - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Freddy H - August 29 - 12:03 am

  Although a great driving experience with head turning good looks it is not perfect. Rear vision is a problem and the center arm rest is out of position. It would also be nice to have the steering wheel mounted controls more readable but overall an excellent choice of vehicles. It is my wifes car but I drive it as often as possible.

  My Zep - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By bigtfromdc - August 11 - 5:40 am

  Very happy with my purchase. The car is quiet, very easy to ride in, takes interstate ramp turns that my Chrysler 300m could not take well. The interior is awesome. I have the Merlot with sand, the blond wood is really pretty. Everyone comments on it. I just got stuck on a no-merge ramp and had to gun it. The car almost got away as it shot into another gear. Can you say New Horrizons...oh, that is a NASA rocket! :) The trunk is big enough for both Haffa and brother Bin! What a blast. Great value for the money.

  Very Happy with the Zephyr - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Paul Barnes - July 27 - 5:40 am

  I purchased the Zephyr for my wife-both she and I are very happy with it. We have had several people who are very impressed with it and who have told us so. We traded a LS (2002) for it and plan to own it for 5 to 6 years.

  Lincon Zephyr - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By 2006 Lincoln Zephyr - June 15 - 7:36 pm

  I traded in my Ford Explorer due to the high price of gas. I have had three explorers and really shopped around before deciding on the zephyr. I have three words for this new car... I LOVE IT! Its fun to drive and I love the navigation system! Not sure how it will do in the snow but so far Im loven it!

  More to Come - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Great Vehicle - June 9 - 5:06 pm

  I truly enjoy this vehicle. The ride is smooth and everything about this vehicle says quality. Although it seems that I need to fill the tank every four or so days its well worth it.

  Bad - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Michelle - June 5 - 1:26 pm

  There are big time steering problems with this vehicle. Without four lanes forget a u-turn. Pulling into a parking space requires that you backup and correct. Hard to believe it has rack and pinion steering! The engine sounds like a tinker toy not that of a $30,000 luxury car. Forget having to accelerate quickly when merging onto the interstate or turnpike. At 52, I would I was more consumer savvy. Wrong!
