Taking a Spin in the Lincoln MKS

For more auto videos, go to www.wsj.com/video. Senior Editor David Patton test drives the Lincoln MKS. With heavy competitors in its segment, including the Acura TL, Cadillac CTS, and Lexus GS, Lincoln has succeeded in making a sharp looking car. But, Patton warns, the looks are let down by the quality of the ride. (Oct. 9)

Hey Dave:

Drove one today, ride is fine with me. Good acceleration (should be spectacular when eco-boost is adequate) and adequate handling.

Genericness (not a word) sound of the engine what the hell does this even mean?

Get beck in your BMW and just drive away.

This reviewer is talking out of his Chocolate Bullet Hole!

[PeterGregg]

We got an agenda or are we skewed a bit? Doesn't seem like an honest review.

[DocDomNurseNic]

Making up words like "Square-ish-ness" and "Generic-ness" does not make you sound intelligent. It makes you a bad car reviewer.

hahah dude type in Lincoln mks Maxboost in the search bar at the top of the page. NOT THE ECOBOOST. the maxboost has over 400 hp! so yea the mks does come close to the caddy

[madpistol]

It has more power than the base engine in the CTS. However, the CTS also has a 3.6L Direct Injection engine that puts out over 300 HP. Cadillac definitely has Lincoln beat on that front.

hey what do u mean this car doesnt come close to the caddy? the v6 is bigger and has more power!!!

[parthshin]

@jessdoggx i think u should get it ive heard grate reviews about it

[fordforme]

Poor ride quality? I drove one of these a few weeks ago, rides as well as or better than my uncle's '09 Lexus ES350.

[cadillacguy1984]

umm no. this car doesnt even come close to the cadillac cts so that should be out. Anyways why would anyone want a dressed up taurus for twice the price? The whole taurus line sucked so why wont it suck again? I do agree this idiot must be a small car guy cause in no way is the mks a "large" car!!

[esaadr]
