No, the MKS is the same as the Taurus/500. The MKZ is the Fusion with different grill and tail lights.

Nope. The MKZ is a Fusion with a different grille. Exact same car. We have one of each. They are twins. You could be blindfolded and not tell which one you were in. The MKS is the same as the Taurus.

On a side note, mom got rear-ended in the MKZ (what can I say, she drives like an old lady!!) The MKZ suffered virtually no damage while the Civic that hit her looked like it was totalled. The MKZ's (and Fusions) are solidly built.
