  Went Lincoln over Lexus, Acura, BMW - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Chris Mcpherson - June 4 - 6:06 am

  I was going to pickup a BMW a couple months back, until I drove the Zephyr. I am very impressed with everything about it. Gets lots of looks, but its not gaudy. Lincoln has a notion of sophistication. Everything from Cooled/Heated seats, automatic Up/Down widows, comfortable seats and high quality seat and dash materials, awesome fit and finish! I drive over 27k per year in city and highway, so I am very stringent on what I buy. Better materials inside than BMW, more power and no tin box feel like Lexus. This car performs well, shifts are dead-on, steering is tight, lights on and off highway are bright, regular (87) gas, comfortable, very roomy and open feeling. Plus its American! A+

  Beautiful!! - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By KD - June 3 - 6:43 am

  I traded in my Cadillac CTS for this car and am even more pleased. I had to get my windows tinted because I had so many people stopping by the car and riding directly next to me on the highway just to gawk.

  I love this car - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By GoBucks79 - June 2 - 2:26 pm

  I have fallen in love with turning, for me the right turn, very tight, is the best. I have a Corvette, but I love the Zyphers handling. And in the process I find it to be very peppy. I think 226 HP, V6. Turning also seems to be assisted in that you do not turn the wheel far to make a big turn. Ride is great not mushy like some Fords. My parents Town Car floats, the Zypher is very much on the ground. Interior is delightful. My Mom bought one, traded in that Town Car within two weeks of my purchase. My wife hogs it completely, have not driven it in two weeks!!!!

  No more Nissans - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By ken - May 27 - 3:20 am

  This is our first "American made" car since the mid 1980s and we are extremely pleased. We looked at the Lexus ES series and found the Zephyr just about equal in quality but much more affordable. The THX sound system is awesome, the heated and cooled, memory controlled seats are a nice touch, the instruments easy to read,the ride very comfortable, the pickup more than satisfactory and it roomy and fun to drive. We also have the moon roof that operatates with one touch and is surprisingly quiet when open. Our Zephyr also has the 17" chrome wheels and they sparkle. My wife uses the car daily and has been asked several times about the vehicle. Its a real head turner.

  American Luxury - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Rugsmart - December 22 - 7:03 pm

  Both GM and Ford have come out with some nice cars for 2006 and I wanted to give them both a good shot with my new car purchase. The Lincoln Zephyr is more engaging than the Lexus ES, and while not as much fun to drive as the Lexus IS or BMW 325, it comes in at a good $2,000-$3,000 less comparably equipped (after negotiation and dealer contributions, which dont exist on the other name plates). The main reason I like the Lincoln is its unique sense of American luxury. It is not trying to be European or Japanese, it is trying to establish a new American Luxury character, and I think it succeeds very well. It is very quiet (tire noise from the front is the only sound) and takes regular gas.

  Very good car. - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Bill - December 22 - 1:23 pm

  I found this car slightly used at a Jeep dealer and really liked it at first sight. I have driven it all over and on two long trips (5K miles) since then and still like it a lot. This US car is better than any Toyota or Honda and is comparable to the Lexus. It drives great, gets good MPG (26-30 hwy), runs very quiet and is very reliable. It is great car for a couple or a small family with lots of trunk room and a big back seat for extra junk or two kids or two friends as needed. The car is very luxurious and great looking on both the inside and outside. I highly recommend it to all my friends.

  Satisfied - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Midwest - December 13 - 9:33 am

  I have owned this vehicle three years now and overall it has been a good experience. No major breakdowns or service issues whatsoever. My only complaint is the V rated tires. If you have a flat you buy a tire. Apparently the sidewalls are so thin, that there is no hope to repair unless you have the flat while sitting still in your garage.

  Fun to drive!!! - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By Jesus C. - November 2 - 1:00 am

  I have had this car for almost a week and so far it has performed better than any other car Ive owned. Acceleration is responsive. According to the salesman the computer system will adapt the gear shifting to my style of driving. This is why it does not have a manual shifting option. Doors open and close with little effort. I researched the Acura TL, Cadillac CTS, Dodge Charger, Chrysler 300, Toyota Camry, and the Nissan Maxima. The closest that compared to the Zephyr is the Maxima 3.5 SL version. The drawback of the Maxima is its interior style. Zephyr int/ext combo is by far the best for the price. Im definitely looking forward to keeping this car for a long time.

  2006 Lincoln Zephyr review - 2006 Lincoln Zephyr
  By mike35z - October 20 - 7:00 am

  This is a wonderfull car to drive and just enjoy. I have the standard audio system in it, (not the THX), and it is excellent, clear and vibrant sound, has unique audio tuning features. The car is very quiet, I used to own a Grand Marquis, and the Zephyr is quieter then the Grand Marquis. The ride quality is very nice, handling is very precise, and acceleration is splat on the money, no lag. I highly recommend this car.
