"The best auto I have ever owned." on by sardonea
Pros: Love this luxury road car. Comfortable for all occupants, responsive and a roomy luxurious interior. Best bank for the buck. No comparison to the smaller Infinity, Lexus or the Caddy CTS. Comapre this car to the Caddy STS.
Cons: Not much. Would like to see folding rear seats, a larger trunk opening and a storage area under the panel that has the LINCOLN name on it. That's it.
Summary: What can I say about this car. I love the 12 position front seat adjustments, the navigation system (that can be adjusted on the run), the SYNC system, the THX audio system, the rearview camera system, the forward and reverse sensing systen, the auto high beams, the auto wiper system the two moon roofs, the front heating and cooling front seats, the headed rear seats and the wrap aroung loser door sills that keep you cloths clean when you exit or enter your car in muddy or snowy weather Where do I stop. This car has the softest leather seats you can find and much much more. The biggest bonus is the 27mpg when driving at 75mph on REGULAR gas using the Adaptive Cruise ControI. I love the high seating position which is similar to a SUV or Mini Van and give you a commanding view of the road.. So much more comfortable on long trips then having to sit low with your legs stretched out. If you want a sports car then get one. I have my Jaguar XK8 and love it. But do I want to drive it daily or on long trips - NO!!
Compare this car to the right other manufactures models that offer the same space, the same features and then compare the price of ownership. Then drive them before you make up your mind. Don't reject this car because of what you read from others since in most cases they have never even sat in one much less driven it. -
"Super USA ride; should be test driven by more buyers" on by eeee
Pros: the dashboard technology; the comfortable ride, the responsive motor and the decent gas mileage (On Regular gas; Premium not needed)
Cons: Is it so fashionable to be swayed by others that we no longer care about our economy in spite of the renewed sense of quality in our American car firms?
Summary: Anoher succesful example of Ford taking their competitiveness VERY seriously.

"A nice car" on by ray_the_man
Pros: -Heated and cooled front seats
-Rear heated seats
-Smooth ride
-Great features
-A lot of packages and accessories
-Front is very stylish
-Very good sound system
-RoomyCons: -Some matrials are not the best
-Outer styling on the rear is bulky and the stance is tall
-It gets pretty expensive
-Over synced
-The rear tail lights are thin and long
-The interior design is old fashion and does not flowSummary: Don't get me wrong this a nice car with some inconsistencies, but over all it comes out strong. But there are some cheaper and nicer cars like the Hyundai Genesis, Volvo S80, Mercedes C class, and the 2010 Buick Lacrosse.

"Started great....got worse." on by hdpaulg
Pros: In beginning car was very quiet to exterior noise and very smooth and responsive 6 speed drive train.
Cons: Drive train doesn't mesh as well after 9K miles. Interior cabin sounds (clicking appears from rear area) annoying to all in car. Wind and road sounds are now in MKS at Highway Speeds where they were not when purchased.After 9k, failure for price!

"Best value for the dollar" on by CherokeeMKS
Pros: Great seating and ride... all the luxury features you would want or need... very nice looking inside and out. Yes it will turn heads. This MKS has hit a bulls eye.
Cons: Not many... more power would be ok but you really don't need it. If you want a sports car go by a sports car. Th
Summary: If you want a nice riding comfortable car with all the luxury features and you want to stay around 40K this car hits the target. Buy American. Go drive it.
After 6 months I have had no issues or problems. This car rides nice and is very comfortable. It is not meant to be a sports car (I have a Corvette for that) it is a luxury car and great value for what it costs.
