Serraph Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Love the white. Crystal Champagne, not the Platinum White. It looks nicer in person. Although white was our next choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude, really nice looking car, glad yours came in buddy! As for keeping the sales person past closing, tell them they kept you 4 months past delivery!!!

Maybe more information and being upfront would have helped reassure me. Anyways the car is great and hopefully with the next fill up I can get a better report on fuelly.

woodrowwilson Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Any chance somebody would snap some in the dark pictures showing how well the headlights work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serraph Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Any chance somebody would snap some in the dark pictures showing how well the headlights work? You mean the place it illuminates or the headlights itself when on? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodrowwilson Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 You mean the place it illuminates or the headlights itself when on? The illumination pattern, and how bright it is compared to other vehicles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stentgraft95 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 I have a question regarding the heated / cooled seats: On my 03 Lincoln LS I could push the heat and cool buttons simultaneously and it would put the seats in auto mode. In the spring it may heat the seats in the morning but on my evening commute back home it might cool the seats. This was a convenient option of not having to make a selection every time I got in the car. Does the “Z” have this option as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a convenient option of not having to make a selection every time I got in the car. Does the “Z” have this option as well? That would be super cool. This is what I found from the owner's manual on page 140. Heated and Cooled Devices The climate control system controls other heated and cooled devices inside the vehicle. These devices (if available and selected to AUTO in the information displays) may switch on during remote start. Heated devices typically switch on during cold weather, and cooled devices during hot weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stentgraft95 Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Well that sounds cool but in short "no" there is not the equivalent in the new "Z" then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timf Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 Assuming MyFord/MyLincoln Touch works the same on all models, it does not remember the last setting you were using and you have to turn it on each time you start the vehicle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serraph Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 Major buzz kill. There is a an option for auto or last setting on remote start. It's on the left hand side of the IP panel. Go to: Vehicle Remote Start Climate Control Heater A/C / Auto Last Setting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikecio1 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Grats on the new ride, did you lease or purchase? I was quickly corrected by my wife... We used her families Z plan. We leased this time. She is a Realtor and she usually gets a new car every 3 years anyway. So we signed up for the extra mileage and in 36 months or sooner she will get another one.

VirtualAmerican Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 (edited) motorcraftservice.com -> owner guides Thank you SO MUCH for posting this resource, akirby. I have been searching high and low all over the Lincoln Canada/U.S. websites and the U.S. Lincoln Owner portal desperately trying to find a Canadian French 2013 MKZ Owner's Manual, and this site HAS IT! YAY! And to stay on topic, on April 11th, 2013 I ordered an MKZ 2.0 Ecoboost in Ingot Silver with the Charcoal interior and the 19" 10-spoke polished wheels. I will be sure to post pictures when I receive it. Your cars are all superb. I'm jealous and want mine ASAP.

VirtualAmerican Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 You're the lucky one, you have DRL. Me wants..... as well as a few others on here. Yeah, I guess that's true, I kind of got that impression looking at a few discussions on here about the MKZ. But don't forget that there is a non-negligible price difference between U.S. cars and Canadian ones (not to mention higher sales taxes on top of it all), so we do pay more for that feature in the end. Also, you can't get an MKZ 2.0 Ecoboost with the AWD in Canada. It has to be the 3.7 engine, and the price premium is a bit steep. That decision by Lincoln executives baffles me since a lot of Canada tends to get considerably more snow/wintry weather than most regions in the U.S. (although we don't fare too bad in the Toronto area in comparison). I also find it amusing to see that a lot of U.S. MKZ owners would like to have DRL enabled (no doubt due to the beautiful LED accent lights). My experience has been that U.S. owners (on other vehicle forums) usually try to find ways to get their DRLs turned off when they come standard on a vehicle. Just Google "2005 impala daytime running lights" and see what I mean. I used to have one of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that's why. Ok was kidding but you do have a point with the DRL looking nice. We see them a lot on German cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
