xgman Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Speaking of having to wait for the car you really wantThis is my newest ford automobile purchase. Only 55 years for delivery and 12.5 MPG which is right with the owners manual! Nice.. Really only 12.5 huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharlesN Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 Nice.. Really only 12.5 huh? Really............... Numbers matching original, engine has not been apart. Even the paint is factory. You probably will not see one of our MKZ's in 55 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVN LYF Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 I also ordered the red (no pano) as well, but with the charcoal interior. I wavered so much on the color from red to white to the dark grey, but the red kept drawing me back. I ordered the Tux Black with the Hazelnut interior after debating over the Bord Reserve, White Platinum, Ruby Red, and Smoked Quartz. The decision about killed me, as the vehicle looks great in all of the colors. Disappointed today though, as I just went to the dealership and had them take the multi-contour seats off of my vehicle order so that I could get it sometime before June. I don't think that I will be able to take delivery in time for the pre-order promotion that Lincoln was running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xgman Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 whatever you do remember your unlock code for the door! It does lock your key in the car if you use the door code lock! SMSgt B, I'm loving the car and the color especially. Phone just died so I'll get the interior later. The console (in charcoal) is more refined than my initial impression. The way the lights come out of nowhere is very cool. The car to me drives much sportier and smoother than my 2011 ever did. In the shop tomorrow to replaced the one piece of scratched trim and the nicked center armrest cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xgman Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 By the way, the lower led accent lights do not come on in daytime even when your light switch is set to auto. They come on with parking lights setting or regular full lights or at "night" in auto setting. Kind of disappointing since even parking setting forces the real light on, so not a good workaround. Odd that they didn't provide this as obviously Audi, Lexus, Mercedes, even kia I believe, have the led accents on in daytime. Would have been a cool look.

I can't believe lincoln didn't make these LED's available for daytime driving. I agree they'd be a neat look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great looking cars guys - glad to see some are getting deliveries. Have the Fusion and will say Ford really missed the boat big time on the DRL's in the US. All other brands are really using them for some identity. I believe with any model - Ford can enable those lights as DRL's in the US and I think they already are in Canada. Other will probably have a more definitive answer - but the LKZ lights are cool and would have them enabled if possible. The Fusion didn't get quite the same treatment. I think Ford overall has missed DRL's for safety in the US - I know there are many arguments for and against, but I do like a cool set of lights that separates a car or a brand.

Thanks , got everything but inflatable seat belts and multi seats. In the pic of the dash you can see finger prints on the screen and that is after the Nu Shield has been installed so you will get prints. It was very easy to install though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very easy to install though Remember the regular version of that shield is good with prints but casts a slightly frosted matte look on it, which is most noticeable in direct sun, but not very noticeable in the shade..
