All black 2014 MKZ Is smooth
Driving a Lincoln feels like driving on a cloud. It's extremely smooth. We love all the features, especially the heated and air conditioned seats. The 2014 MKZ is very spacious and comfortable. We bought this vehicle used and haven't had an issue with performance over the past year.

2014 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid: A vision of the future
The vehicle is extremely comfortable and has lots of features. The interior is sleek and features a several Information displays. The speedometer even has a brake coach that shows you how much energy was conserved when you brake, so you can improve your breaking skill. I have never had a problem with reliability, and the car has never needed to be jump started. The car also has lots of other features like a USB port in the back seat that are extremely convenient. Overall, it is an amazing car I would recommend to anyone.

Navigation, leather interior, excellent MPG, and it the most comfortable ride.
Love that it's comfortable and a great ride. The fuel use is awesome as I tend to get between 35-40 MPG. I chose the high end model on a used car and it was just as great as a new one. Plus the buying experience was easy. I'm so happy I chose to buy a Lincoln, it wasn't the first choice but it was absolutely the best choice.

Lincoln MKZ - Highly Recommend
I have not had any vehicle issues with this car so far (knock on wood). It has been very reliable and is very comfortable to ride in. I love the fact that it is a hybrid and I get close to 40 miles to a gallon. I can typically go 500 miles on a tank of gas. This coupled with all of the high tech features makes it great for me.

Lovely Lizzie Lincoln MKZ.
She has a real smooth ride- hugs the road and has great traction as long as she has well threaded shoes! Great gas mileage- in town little less however I have been told I have a heavy foot. Definitely would recommend anyone looked for beautiful and reliable stealth car to take a test drive!

It's a Lincoln mkz and worth it. Ut I don't like the way tires don't hold up.
It has a lot of bells and whistles. It doesn't ride very well. I It eats tires.

2014 lincoln mkz luxury without the high price tag.
I really love the push start option and the heated seats. I wish it did have the cool seats option. It has a very smooth ride. Since it is turbo it does makes noise I do not care for. My family is growing so as of now we all fit but with a car seat in the back it does take up a lot of space. Trunk space is good also.

Lincoln MKZ is a great car.
I love my Lincoln MKZ. It is powerful, comfortable, and reliable. I have never had a major problem with my car other than normal wear and tear items. The MKZ is luxurious but sporty as well. If I was buying a new car, I would definitely look at another MKZ first.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Shawn R.

I love the layout of the cabin. It feels spacious and has soft interior cabin lights along the doors for ambient lighting. The controls are all push button and it has a lots of 'extra gadgets' like navigation, Bluetooth sharing, built-in call answering, etc. I also love the huge panoramic sunroof.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Shawn R.

Mileage is just ok and when one of the computer switches went bad, it took almost 6 months for the dealership to get the part and fix it because there was a national shortage. I feel that the tires wear out easily and that the front end was designed too low to the ground (always scrubbing parking stumps). I dislike the cream-colored leather seats (hard to keep clean-looking with kids).
