Awesome car for the price-beats out a Lexus, BMW & Benz that cost 10K plus more. Love the SYNC, capless fueling, adaptive headlights, and most of all the look. The leather is super nice plus cooled seats are great.

I have owned this car for 3 months now. It's amazing. The remarkable fit and finish, the interior appointments, class-leading technology, stunning design and praiseworthy performance makes this car a must buy. If you are looking for a fresh design that is extremely well made (not just by my standards...but read industry reports concerning what Lincoln, and Mercury for that matter, has accomplished in terms of quality and reliability) and does not break the bank like some of the lesser imports who have nothing but a more popular nameplate, then this is the car for you. I urge you to at least drive it before considering anything else in this class.

The telescoping steering wheel give the driver more comfort. The push button start and invisible keyless entry dey pad are cutting edge for a car like this. I am very impressed with the fuel mileage and the powerful 3.7L V6 engine.

The interior is but nice, but visibility especially out the back window is limited. The speech recognition Navigation software is a weakness. The Mirrors fold in only manually not automatically as the Lexus does. Once folded in the exterior mirrors still protrude which could be a problem parking it a city. Ride is comfortable but a bit noisy from engine noise. Automatic seat settings for only 2 drivers.

The Lincoln MKS has almost every feature you'd expect to get in a $70,000 luxury car.

Automatic rain sensitive wipers.
Keyless entry FOB
Keyless start button
Keyless entry keypad.
Adaptive Cruise Control
ultrasonic sensors for front/rear
Nav traffic Navigation with THX speaker system.
Microsoft Sync voice operated computer
Bluetooth hands free phone system
ipod integration
and the list goes on and on.


BUT, what the MKS doesn't offer is an optional V8.
At 4100 pounds empty, the MKS is as large as the typical 7 Series, LS460L or Audi A8L but, unlike those bigger, more expensive cars, you are stuck with a standard V6 until the Twin turbo V6 is added later on.

Since Bush economy gas is $4.50 a gallon, many won't care that all you get is a V6 and it uses regular unleaded (until a Hemi blows your doors off) but, it woulda been nicer to have the TT V6 released at launch rather than later.

Otherwise, this car is EXCELLENT
