You're channel has grown because the great content! Was waiting for this vid!
Thank you so much 😊
@@321verykindHi
I just bought a used 2016 that I literally can't stop staring at. I love that car so much!! I don't like the 2019. But I'll tell you why. To your point, how clean it looks inside. (16) I don't like all the knobs, or the face of the 19, but I can appreciate the extra refinement. It's all relative. If you're coming from other high end luxury sedans, I think it's safe to assume you'd be harder to impress. But if you're coming from a 2007 Focus, it's like you've died and gone to heaven. I've never loved a car more, and mine is completely entry level, but a hybrid. For me, the icing on the cake.
Thanks for your comment. I agree with you, I can definitely see your point about the knobs on the 2019. Its a little unorganized but the extra refinement makes up for it in ways.
See, that was a peek design right there. The 2016 Lincoln was the first Lincoln my dad purchased, and it was stunning. People were always asking him what kind of car he was driving. Several years later, I left my dad's firm and needed a daily driver, so I tried to buy a used 2016 Lincoln. But my bank said I needed to be at my job longer to secure the loan. I got a Lexus SC43, which I drove until about a month ago as I hit a sinkhole and totaled the car. I went back and forth before purchasing a lightly used 2019 Lincoln MKZ.
@@Mike_Jones281 Still true now. I constantly get looks and compliments.
Congratulations on your serious vehicle upgrade. I have a MKZ and a Ford Focus hatchback. I love them both! The Ford Focus has amazing utility.
@@CheckThisOut77 Agreed.
I feel that the 2017-2020 is more of a luxury car while the 2013-2016 is more of a sports car it’s more of personal preference of what you like better
Totally agree. I like my 2015 more than my 2019 interms of driving
Just bought a 15, super nice. It’s my first car and I LOVE it!!
That’s great:) Hope it treats you well
I own a 2019 MKZ Reserve 3T AWD and I absolutely love it.
The newer obviously has more tech and gadgets, but overall style and appeal, it’s the 2015!
I just got a 2014 seems like it has plenty of gadgets to me 😂
@@smoke4entertainmenttv30
My 2016!is fully loaded for that year and I am totally satisfied.
I have the 2017 mkz awd and it handles very well Steering is great I can honestly say lincoln did a great job. I drove it thru snow and didn't get stuck
Funny story: I never knew I even had a trunk button on my 2016 until I saw your videos 🤣 Thx!
Haha glad it helped.
Superb reviews of the two models.
RE: Panoramic Moon Roof.
Plus: LOTS of sky view. Rear passengers feel less confinement. Dramatic exterior appearance (especially when open)! Exclusive Lincoln feature.
Minus: Extra view is mostly behind driver’s head. Less headroom in rear. Slight increase in noise. Compromised trunk utility (trunk brace to stiffen rear frame). Extra cost.
At first, I REALLY wanted the panoramic roof. But since this car was for my wife, I opted for standard moonroof. Plus, I have my Mustang GT CONVERTIBLE, baby!
The extra noise in the cabin is definitely noticeable with the pano roof. Nice, mustangs are the way to goz enjoy your rides:) 💪🏽
@@321verykind thank you for your comment about the added noise with the pano roof. As I mentioned, I REALLY wanted it BUT quietness is #1 for my wife. Your comment was a confirmation that I went the right way. Thanks again, John
When you said "where you feel like you're floating on a cloud" I was sold on the 2019
Yes, its hard to find cloudy rides these days haha
Great video! Just bought a 2020 MKZ Hybrid and I’m in love. I told my wife it’s like floating on a cloud just like you said. Truly feels like a luxury car with amazing gas mileage as a bonus.
It's a beautiful ride. Congrats on your purchase, hope it gives you great joy:)
great vid!! was always curious about the interior of the older MKZ, I drive a 2018 MKZ reserve and I absolutely love it!! great car and still has great curb appeal constantly getting head nods and compliments! unfortunate they were discontinued really thought Lincoln could build on this sedan😔
I put a 2019 armrest in my 2016 recently. I had one as a loaner and it was so much more comfortable. I saw one on eBay and took the chance. It lined up the same. Also did the sync 3 upgrade and now feels much more modern.
One caveat: The car sits very low, and the hood completely disappears below the dash. Ive rubbed curbs and not seen potholes, because the visibility honestly, not great. The 2012 Fusion is much easier to see around you.
I have a 2014 with 11,600 miles on it and it still gets stares from lookers. I love it
Wow so little mileage. Keep it up:)
Damn, you couldn't wash these things before reviewing?
I try my best to clean my vehicles before filming.
I agree @yoshiaki k
Nice overview. I baught my Lincoln Mkz 2013 with 29000km in 2022 and i realy enjoin in comparative to bmw and merc
Wow that’s high mileage. Hope you get good mileage out of it. I’m going to be comparing my Lincoln to m5 and c class so stay tuned
Nice video, thanks
You are welcome:)
Thx for the video. Nice MKZs. Picking up my 2015 2.0 eco tomorrow. thing is emaculate.
Thankyou. Hope you enjoy your new ride:)
I have a 2013 mkz so same style as yours, the color on yours is awesome
Thankyou. I love the color as well. Too bad 2017+ models ditched it
@@321verykind any recommendations on how to go about getting my stock wheels powdercoated black? Is that possible? i have the smoked quartz body color so i think it would look fantastic.
@@FiftiesDad yes that it possible. I got quotes 550 CAD to get mine gloss black powder coat. I haven't done it yet, my paint is still somewhat holding up on the wheels.
2019 > 2015
The front grille on the 2017 and up is called “Lincoln Mesh”
Jaguar mesh 😉🤣
2019 looks like everything else on the road and to masculine for the rest of the car tbh. But not a bad design just doesn’t fit and looks like every Jag, Volvo and Audi. 2015 is compared to nothing else
The interior just needs good detailing, and it will look great.
We just bought our daughter a 2015, I have to say I like the 2015 console area way better than the 2019-much sleeker, not a fan of all the knobs.
First the 2015 mkž has a medium size light onto the 2019 next is that it has a facelift
You, you help me to find my trunk button. I have been using the remote
Glad I helped you find it. It’s a awkward spot
El 2015 se ve muchisimo mejor que el 2019....yo tengo un 2013 Reserve color especial interiores beige precioso...
I like the touch pad better than the knobs in the newer 2017. It gives more luxurious when it’s touch less climate control.
I agree, buttons make it seem old
The 2015 shape with 2019 colour
That would look good 👍
How many miles does your 2015 MKZ have?
Just over 170k miles. Going to do an update video soon so stay tuned :)
Lincoln likes to be cleaned)😊
Love my 15 hybrid too. When I got with a 2020 the main things I noticed were the steering wheel stitching, the different rear valence, and the door handle lights at night😂. Both great cars tho! Do you feel the engine turning on in the '19 as much?
Right the door handles light up at night and the puddle lights are cool too on the 17+. With the hybrid, I barely hear the engine turn on because of how well the cabin is insulated with noise dampening materials. It’s truly amazing.
vacuum the insides
Hello, I had a question about reliability on your 2015 MKZ. I'm buying a 2014 mkz hybrid with 140k miles and was worried about reliability. Thanks.
I would be worried about the rear shocks. Rockauto has them cheap. Other than that should be solid
Thanks for the video. I recently picked up a 2018 MKZ 3.0 AWD and I'm in love with it. Did you get a chance to drive the 3.0 before purchasing the Hybrid?
Glad you are having a blast with your MKZ. Unfortunately, there was no 3.0 available in my area at the time of my purchase. The nearest ones were 500km which was quite a drive.
@@321verykind Yeah they built a LOT of 2.0's. At least that's what I found in my search. I was looking nationwide (U.S.) for about two months and ended up buying one less than a mile from my house!
Nice video, in your opinion where is the best place to find one of these ? Thanks.
I got mine from Craigslist, both of them. AutoTrader is cool and all but I think Craigslist got the best deals
I have a 2015 Lincoln MKZ 3.7 AWD, this is going to be first winter with it in the northeast (Rhode Island) what mode do you recommend for snow? Comfort, Normal, or sport driving mode?
Mkz owner here too! Make sure to join the mkz owners Facebook group! Lots of good information. As for the driving modes in the snow, the car will perform equally well in all modes but it depends on which driving characteristics in each mode you prefer for the snow conditions. I get a lot of snow in my area as well and leave my mkz in comfort year round with great success.
I leave it normal mode in the snow because I get more feel from the steering wheel of what the front tires are doing. Driving up a icy hill is not fun 😆
definitely like the 2017 Better
Why does the 2015 look like it's 35 years old?
Old money
I like the 2019. Sadly they stop making them:(
Hope in the future we can get cars back from ford/Lincoln
did lincoln fix there 2.0t engines on the the 2017-2020 cars ?
No not that I know of. Those 2.0t are very unreliable on these things. It’s a big car and they stuff a tiny 2.0t in it. Engine is going to work harder, thus prone to more problems down the road.
Is the 2015 a good car
Yes it is
Love your channel. Do you know how to open your trunk with the door keypad on your 2019? I watch some videos but can't seem to get mine to work
Thankyou. I didn’t know that was possible to open the trunk using the keypad. Where did you hear about this?
@@321verykind a saw a RUclips video but it was the older physical button keypad and not the style we have
@@DannyBlackstock. can you link me the video? I’m very curious
@@321verykindruclips.net/video/xQGHNnCB0sw/видео.html
Actually I just found this. Haven't tried it yet because it's pouring out. Hopefully helps
The MKZ 3.0tt or the older MKS 3.5tt 🤔
3.0tt all the way. More power, seems to have better reliability then the 3.5
@321verykind Thanks, friend. I know the Taurus SHO makes 365hp. Does the MKS make the same?
@@iguardwisconsinberry8830 yes I believe same power if not a bit more. Check online sources. No problems
U should wash your cars b4 doin a video
They had the trunk button hidden because it looks better with the light there .. if you can't find it don't open it 😂
Hahahah that’s for sure
I like the 19 because I have the 17
Why would you do a video with the vehicles in such FILTHY condition. Jesus man! Take them to a car wash! These are beautiful vehicles. My wife and I each own MKZs. :)
This video was filmed during winter here in bc canada. Car will get dirty literally after I wash it, so i make sure to rinse them off every week during winter months to prevent rust. Sorry, hard to keep a daily in show room condition :)
Buen video pero los vehiculos están asquerosos ✅
Gracias:)
Yeah, well....the 2017 and up MKZ looks MUCH BETTER than the 2015. I hated that 2015 front grill; it was too....Idk, Japanese/Chinese-looking, and I hate most Asian brand plates, they all look the same: BORING. If I could've found a 2020 Continental, I would've bought that one instead, but Certified pre-owned cars were SO VERY SCARCE when I bought my 2019 MKZ.
I can see how it can be Japanese looking. Thanks for sharing your opinion 🙂
