Love the car, it is very plush!

I have owned a used 2012 MKX AWD for just about a year now and I LOVE IT! Got it for just under $10k with less than 94k miles and it is loaded completely. The power from the V6 is rather good considering the size of the car and the interior is very comfortable and definitely more upscale than the Ford Edge cousin. All in all the car is doing great with no problems what so ever and since it is a well known Ford engine (used in many Fords including the V6 Mustang) the maintenance isn't highly expensive and can be done by the owner if they are so inclined.

A step above the rest.

When looking for a new SUV I settled on the Lincoln MKX AWD as it provides an extremely comfortable ride with the versatility of a SUV. With both stylish interior and exterior, a panoramic sunroof like no other, this SUV is a must see and must drive.

Extremely reliable vehicle.

This Vehicle gives the luxury feel without the expenses associated with a luxury SUV. The ride is very smooth and the ammenities are on par with more expensive SUV's.

Excellent vehicle

I usually only buy Cadillac and Lincoln’s. This tile I bought a Lincoln because the MKX was just the right size. Well it turned out to be everything and more. Great ride comfort, great on gas, very reliable as well. Mark my words when I say I don’t do well with cars that have issues no matter how small. My Lincoln’s and Cadillac’s have always been good to me. Routine maintenance and good to go!

DIDN'T BUY IT!

I did not purchase this car because the improvements made in 2013, made 2012 obsolete. Glad I found out before I bought it because the price was excellent. I also did not test drive it, but there is not a choice for that.

Ford Edge on Steroids~

We thought the Ford Edge that we traded in was nice, but the MKX is about three levels nicer. A true driving pleasure. It's very nice to look at, Quite comfortable to ride in & to drive. Great handling & more than enough power (It acts more like an eight than a six)

Maintenance free, easiest car I’ve ever had.

Car has exceeded all my expectations, AWD is great in snow. Comfortable with all amenities. Exceptional car. Almost zero maintenance other than brakes, tires and oil changes.

I love my MKX Lincoln!

I look at my Lincoln and smile, I get to drive it again, yeah! I'm comfortable, feel pride in the vehicle, window view in the 2012 is very good. I feel very safe. Recently driving in a residential area a deer came out of nowhere and jumped in front of me, I was doing 30 mph, I hit the 2nd deer. I killed teenage Bambi, horrified yes. Cops were great asked me if I wanted Bambi, gave her to the homeless. My car goes in tomorrow to replace the front cowling and check for other damage. The car has been very drivable, just making sure. I love my Lincoln and bells and whistles are many despite its age. I'm north right now and 20 degrees, I push the button for heated seats and back, and the best is the heated steering wheel, sometimes better than gloves.

Quality automobile

This is my second MKZ. I traded in my first with 175,000 miles and plan on keeping this one for awhile longer. I currently have 150,000 miles on it and it still drives like new
