#58 of 65 Can't wait for 2010 MKZ to arrive by bilgediver623 Mar 22, 2009 (9:44 am)
I purchased a 2006 Zephyr on August 1, 2006. It has been flawless. Regular service with semi-synthetic oil and a change of plugs 95,000. Car has over 115,000 miles now. Waiting for the 2010's. Hope they will be as reliable Replies to this message: bobgwtw (Mar 25, 2009 5:13 pm)

Replying to: bilgediver623 (Mar 22, 2009 9:44 am) Glad to see your post. I too drive a lot of miles - 134,000 on an 06 Avalon - & I'm looking forward to taking a close look at the 10 MKZ. The Avalon has been dead reliable; 0 expense other than routine maintenance; but I believe the Ford product will be a better driving car. Can you tell me what kind of mileage the MKZ has been giving you?
#60 of 65 Gas mileage by tshoemaker Mar 26, 2009 (4:23 am)
I have a 2008 FWD MKZ. With city driving the onboard computer tells me 23.4mpg. My city driving is a mix of some interstate and city. On all interstate trips I'm getting around 28mpg.

Replying to: rsquared77 (Mar 20, 2009 9:38 am) In some cases, TSB 09-7-4 supersedes TSB 08-12-5. I was told that I needed repairs from TSB 09-7-4.
#62 of 65 Any 2010 MKZs yet? by mceb May 14, 2009 (9:31 am)
I'm curious if 2010 MLKs have arrived yet to your local dealer and anyone bought one yet and how much did you pay?
#63 of 65 2009 MKZ offered "Used" with 37 miles - advice please. by jwbooth Jun 03, 2009 (11:40 am)
I went into a Lincoln Mercury dealer yesterday, and they showed me a car which they had sold to a business for a promotional drawing the business was holding. The person who won the drawing took cash instead of the car, so it is technically a used car since it was owned but not driven by the drawing winner. It's a 2009 Lincoln MKZ, 3,5L V6 Duratec Engine, 6 Speed Auto Trans. MSRP 37,790. They will sell it for 29,800 including a 1 yr vehicle maintenance package, or without the maintenance package for 28,700. It has about 37 miles or less on it.   Negatives are: Low headroom. I'm 6' tall, just about all cars with sun/moon roofs give me about 1" of space or less above my head. The only one I found with a little more room is the Honda Accord. So I can get what I guess is a great price, and deal with the annoyance of the roof brushing my hair.   The other negative is that I planned on black or at least dark upholstery, and this is white or off-white leather. I know that it'll take me a few days only to spill coffee on it, or drop food on it, etc. So I can pretend that I'll stop eating/drinking in the car, or deal with the fact that the clean upholstery for the driver's seat may end up stained very quickly.   I just saw it late last night. Took it for a very short test drive on local roads, as I was mostly absorbing the situation. I'm going to have to decide very quickly - like today - or it'll probably be sold to someone else.   Haven't owned a new car in my life, so would appreciate your responses to the price and my comments. Thanks. Replies to this message: explorerx4 (Jul 07, 2009 3:07 pm)

Replying to: jwbooth (Jun 03, 2009 11:40 am) no matter how 'good' the deal, this is not the car for you, too small. $1200 for a 1 year maintenance package? i have a fusion, close relative. over 15k, i would have paid about $175 for total maintenance. sine i get free oil changes, i paid about $100.
#65 of 65 2010 LIncoln MKZ dealer experience by mountan09 Sep 27, 2009 (5:44 am)
I finally am getting closer to buying a car. It is between an 2009 Acura TL Tech and a 2010 Lincoln MKZ. I requested internet quotes from several of the local Detroit Acura dealers and only one from a local Lincoln dealer for an ultimate pkg MKZ. I received good honest out the door quotes from the Acura dealers via internet. The Lincoln dealer (Hines Park) gave me an awesome price, so I went in yesterday with my check book. Amazingly enough, they would not even consider selling me the car for that price. Here I am a person in Detroit, that would consider changing brands from my super dependable Acura TL to a Lincoln, who doesn't work for an auto company, can afford the car, got completed jacked around! I am trying to be a good citizen and buy American, but come on! Why would they give me a price that isn't real?I just asked for an internet price. They don't know me from adam and why would they make assumptions without asking? I will try one more Lincoln dealer and then just go buy the Acura. Can anyone tell me why it is so hard to do a simple transaction? I am more than willing to go out of state to get a decent deal. I did ask for an internet price from a TX Lincoln dealer and had good honest communication. Of course, since I didn't go to the dealer with my checkbook, maybe that is not true. I will post again if I go to the Acura dealer Monday night with my checkbook and they don't honor their out the door price either.
