KBB Editors' Overview
In 2006 Ford introduced its all-new Ford Fusion midsize sedan and its divisional platform mates the Mercury Milan and Lincoln Zephyr (all based on Japanese-partner Mazda's well-respected Mazda6 front-wheel-drive architecture). All three have earned media praise, strong quality reviews and good first-year sales. Building on this proven platform, Lincoln adopts a more powerful 3.5-liter V6 engine, six-speed automatic transmission and available "intelligent" all-wheel drive to create the mid-size 2008 Lincoln MKZ (pronounced "M-K-Z") luxury sedan. Although the name is confusingly similar to the MKX crossover and soon-to-come MKS luxury sedan, Lincoln simply follows a long line of luxury manufacturers whose marketers prefer letters and numbers to easily-recognizable names.

You'll Like This Car If...	You May Not Like This Car If...
If a boldly-styled, beautifully-trimmed, solidly-built, well-equipped and reasonably-priced American midsize luxury sedan that feels and drives more like a European import would fulfill your needs and desires, the 2008 Lincoln MKZ may be an excellent choice.	Lincoln long competed head-to-head with GM's Cadillac at the top of the U.S. market, but has lost a lot of luster in recent years. If brand image ranks higher than comfort, value and substance on your priority list, you may want to look elsewhere.

What's New for 2008

All MKZs receive SIRIUS Satellite Radio, heated and cooled leather front seats and the Sync hands-free audio and communications system (late availability).
