I traded my Mercedes C350 Coupe, 4MATIC, for MKS

The MKS is a fine automobile. There is absolutely no comparison between the Mercedes Benz and the Lincoln MKS. The Lincoln MKS wins hands down. The MKS has real leather, not "leatherette" vinyl on the seats as in all C Class Mercedes Benz. In the MKS, you can actually feel the road, not so in the Mercedes. The Mercedes is quicker 0-60, but the MKS is heads and shoulders above the Mercedes in every other category. To me, the ride comfort is far superior to the Mercedes Benz C Class. The electronics are much more intelligently layed out, and the menu's are logical. The Mercedes navigation "Becker Map Pilot" is the German equivalent of a bad joke. The Lincoln's premium sound system is just as good as the Harmon Kardon in the Mercedes. Trunk room in the MKS is fantastic, and the Mercedes trunk room is horrible. The Lincoln is a few thousand less that the Mercedes, and a much better buy, for the money, the ride, and comfort. Well, I have now owned this vehicle for over a year, and everything I said above is still true. I probably shouldn't say this, but this Lincoln MKS easily exceeds 100 mph. Yes, the Mercedes did too, but the MKS is certainly as stable at speed as the Mercedes was. The other day, I loaded 30 pieces of St. Augustine SOD in the trunk, the pieces are about 30" x 18", and the guy said they would never fit in the trunk ....until I open it...they fit just fine. I still like this car, it is comfortable on trips, and nimble enough to drive comfortably in heavy traffic. If Lincoln hadn't discontinued the MKS model, they would have sold several million if they only produced it in a convertible model. I am rapidly approaching two years of ownership and near 30,000 miles on the odometer and this MKS has not skipped a beat. Everything is holding up well, and no visits required for maintenance. Wash and wax, change the oil at regular intervals, and the car still looks great. The new Lincoln's look good, but I'm not ready to trade yet. My vehicle is now 6 model years old, coming up on 36,000 miles, and not one problem experienced with this vehicle. What absolutely blows my mind is that it only has a trade-in value around $10,000.00 bucks. Who is it that gave this car a bad rap? It's as good, if not better than the Mercedes's it replaced.

Great car, pleasure to drive, nice ride, roomy. The big trunk is used frequently. The lower steering unit needed replacement in 2021.

Almost @ 2 years and 50k miles of ownership. Bought my MKS used and haven't had any major issues. The infotainment is slow but who cares. The controller for the hvac and radio volume went out. Part was discontinued but got a used one and haven't had a problem since. The car is inexpensive to maintain rides wonderful and outside of regular maintenance costs less then a corolla to maintain. That 100. Ford did this right. A guy on here said he had one and bought a Cadillac and forgot why he liked the MKS. These and short term owners that don't hold on to cars long. Mine tho I look at it drive it and love it. My car is happy. My wallet is happy and seeing these for sale all over with 300k miles plus and still going gives me hope that Lincoln is still Lincoln. Former owner of 2 Town cars and a continental for the 90s and early 2000s. Just can't be Lincoln reliability. GO FORD... Next investment is a continental for the late 20teens. Or 2020.

got the black on black with wood trim. very classy. 2020 update. Still loving it. Under 25,000 miles on it. Regular maintenance at Lincoln keeps everything working smoothly. Solid.

The car is great. Its a 2014. The sales team at the dealership I purchased my MKS at were great. Had problems scheduling vehicle for a miner cosmetic repair at another Lincoln dealership the car was not purchased at. I experienced poor customer service at Richmond Ford. I had to reschedule at a dealership across town.
