Having owned a 2009 Lincoln Town Car in the past, the 2015 MKS is just as good or better in ride and quality. The seats are actually more comfortable than the Town Car. On trips, the adaptive cruise control is a very impressive feature when approaching slower cars in front of you. Their is plenty of power when passing with the 3.7 engine. Some individuals find the SYNC with MyLincoln Touch difficult to use, but once you get the basics down, it's rather easy to use including navigation. So far we are very impressed with this vehicle and look forward to trips this coming year.

College student in LOVE WITH THIS CAR (200,000)

Has been a great car and I couldn’t ask for more. Has over 200,000 miles and still runs like it’s brand new. The only thing I’ve ever had to service (other than routine maintenance) was the HVAC mode door actuator which was a very cheap fix. Other than that it’s been perfect. Has plenty of space and I was particularly surprised with the amount of power that this car has regardless of how big and heavy the car is. Great ride quality too // p.s. it’s so quiet and smooth you can barely tell how fast you’re going at highway speeds sometimes. Great stylish looks and modern technology inside and out even on the base model. My friends love it too ;)

Over 150,000 miles and no issues whatsoever

Only weird thing I've had to replace was the servo in the vents that changed the air from floor to defrost, at 115,000 miles. I'm over 150,000 now and it's had no major issues, that one minor issue, and no other real complaints for reliability. It's started no issues in -30f up to 105. One thing I would've liked is if the processor in the touch screen was much faster. It takes a good full 1-2 seconds for it to respond to anything you do. Just having a faster processor in that to make it instant response would make the car feel modern even today. But it felt aged brand new due to the terrible slowness from the start. Come on Ford. Power is perfect, don't need more, don't want less. Handling is incredible, especially if you put Michelin Pilot 4 (all season) tires on it. Braking is great, I did front pads last at 105,000, and at 146,000 I put new pads on the rear brakes. I've done one wheel bearing around every 50,000 miles now, it's never really certain how long a bearing will last but they're part of normal maintenance. Black seats are VERY hard to clean. With the perforations for the AC seats, any dust particles that are white will get caught in the little holes and are basically impossible to get out to make the seats look clean again.

Base 3.7L MKS The Underappreciated Vehicle

D, Tempe, AZ, 07/22/2023

I really wanted a Taurus SHO. I liked the spacious trunk and really wanted the performance. Ended up with a deal I couldn't refuse on a base 3.7L MKS. I thought I was settling to save money with this base MKS. I was wrong. Pictures don't do the vehicle justice. In person it looks like a Hawk from the front and a cross between a Jaguar and Maserati from the back at the right angle. The trunk is like having a full blown SUV for family trips. It's literally ridiculous how big it is. The complaints of a tight feeling front are overblown. It actually emulates a sporty cockpit feeling without having anything uncomfortable rubbing against you even if you tried. As far as handling it has a normal, sport, and comfort mode for suspension. You can set it to be full time any of the three in drive. It has paddle shifters to play in the mountains holding gears or assist with slowing down. A secret in performance I learned is the car really comes to life by dropping the shifter into Sport Mode and letting the transmission do the work. This move seems to make the engine torque curve more aggressive, suspension tighten up, shifts firmer, and it holds gears longer at medium, light, and WOT. I really like that this car can be driven like grandpas old Lazy boy feel Lincoln in comfort mode and get a little frisky I'm sports mode. The styling does a great job of reminding you of grandpas Lincoln you fell in love with and a newer version that is yours. The ability to travel the whole family and luggage in comfort in a sporty looking sedan is pretty cool. Best of all it stands out from all the yuppies who bought Beemers and Benzes dealing with all their maintenance bs and ticking time bomb after 100k mile costs. You can't go wrong with any model of this vehicle. The base gets better gas mileage and and still gets up and goes in a respectable manner. Also no premium gas which is huge savings. The Ecoboost I've never driven but can imagine how much more I'd love it. This car is a hidden gem. The flagship vehicle Lincoln between the Towncar and Return of the Continental. Get one while they are still in good condition, cheap, and unappreciated.

Spacious Luxury sedan

I JUST purchased a 2015 MKS fwd, and I am pleasantly surprised. I wanted something full-midsize sedan but with quiet interior, but at least a 3.7 V6 because I am switching from an 07' G6 GTP, 3.6 V6. I wanted style, speed and quiet comfort. I couldn't ask for more!! Although my MKS has 60k miles, the only downfall is learning all the spaceship-like dash, that a exhaust looks a little rusted underneath. Other than that, GREAT CAR!!!
