2008 Lincoln MKX review from North America
"No wonder this car is so popular!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the MKX yet. The paint on the back bumper is cheap, and chips and scratches appear easily over the entire car... it is black.
Needs a cargo area protector for the top of the bumper.
General comments?
Lincoln created air-conditioned seats as their answer to crack. I'm an addict for sure. Drives like a dream, has the turning radius of a Toyota Corolla. Rock solid. Needs cargo area cover... no place to hide stuff.
Crappy gas mileage, we averaged about 15 which SHOULD be a lot better. We drive carefully and coast and brake appropriately. In town 15 mpg, highway 22. Not impressed with that, our 1999 Continental with the 32-valve DOHC Intech V8 with 300 ponies got the same mileage in-town and BETTER on the highway!
Overall this car is an extreme pleasure to drive. Could use a power tilt on the steering wheel.
