    Can’t believe Ford stopped building, First is higher than

    Can’t believe Ford stopped building, First is higher than other sedans. It is a hot rod with the larger engine, family car, etc. Has great passing power with very good fuel economy. Massaging seats are wonderful plus heat and cold with back seat heaters. The adjustable suspension was the deal maker for me. It also has the camera, parking assist on , and on! Keeping this car forever!

    Really nice car, classy and comfortable

    Purchased a low mileage Certified 2016 Lincoln MKS. I love the ride, smooth and as quiet as my last 2 Buick Lucerns. Very high quality inside and has options that I am thrilled with. I am very pleased with this car as I conducted an exhaustive search for just the right one, within budget and something I'm proud of. Many compliments form coworkers. Never owned a Lincoln before so this experience is new and I look forward to the famous Lincoln service.

    As good as I expected

    Lincoln MKS rides and handles great. Interior comfort is outstanding to include the heated, cooled and massaging front seats. Many quality features throughout the car. Wife loves the Lincoln!

    Style and comfort!

    The car is definitely meeting my needs. It has a lot of leg room both front and back. The 2 things I don't care for much, would be the touch entertainment system. It leaves finger prints all the time and is a bit far to reach. The other thing is that I wish it had better gas mileage. All in all though, the car is quiet, smooth, comfortable and very well designed. I love it!

    Most beautiful car I've owned

    I love my new MKS with so many safety features. It handles so beautifully and has so many extras on it that it will take awhile to learn how to use everything. Love the hands-free feature of being able to accept a phone call or make a phone call while in the car. I have always been a luxury car person and this one is the best
