Test Drives2015 Lincoln MKZ: THAT’s A Lincoln?4.0/5
“That’s a Lincoln?” That’s what a perfect stranger exclaimed when I told him the make of the sexy sedan I was test driving. The man then explained that his dad had owned several Lincolns, but he’d always preferred BMWs. In his view, Lincolns were for old-timers. And that’s precisely the …
