Welcome! I just bought a 2017 3.0t AWD myself. This car is an insane value on the used market. Would have never known how much so unless it was brought to my attention 

Thank you. I have to admit, I do like the z so far. And I would be hard to win over, I just got out of the E400 coupe. But we all know thats not comparing apples to apples.   

Welcome to the forum and enjoy your new ride....and power. ;) 

Hi 3mKz. Congratulations on your new MKZ and welcome to the Lincoln MKZ Forum! 😂   Good luck!

Just alil info, New here,  Just bought a 17 3.0 AWD. Here for knowledge, with more knowledge comes  POWER! HaHa haaaaa   Oh come on, that was kinda funny..... ...... Anyhow, thanks for your time

Welcome the MKZ Forum, Scott.  Congratulations on your MKZ.  I had a 2012 Sport. While the 1st-gen cars weren't available with a lot of the advanced features of the 2013+ cars, they still have a lot going for them.   Search around here and on the Ford Fusion Forum for what others have done WRT exhaust.  Just realize that it's never going to sound like a GM LS V8.   Edit: bbf2530 got in just before me.

Hi Scott. Welcome to the Lincoln MKZ Forum and congratulations on your new MKZ!   Just so your expectations are not too high...No matter what muffler we put on, we can not get V-8 sound from a V-6.   If you do a forum search, you can find many existing threads on aftermarket mufflers for our cars. Generally speaking, the three top choices for mufflers are Borla, Magnaflow and Flowmaster.   A brief recap: Borla is the highest quality and highest priced (you get what you pay for). More grumble than stock. Not obnoxiously loud. Very high quality, and price. Magnaflow is the second choice quality wise and priced lower. Louder. Some complain of a cruising speed drone. Flowmaster is the least expensive, but many complain of an obnoxious/headache inducing, cruising speed drone, and wind up reinstalling the factory mufflers.   You can go to the company websites for those three companies and see what your choices are.   Keep in mind that no aftermarket muffler or cat-back exhaust will increase horsepower, torque or mpg's. No matter what their advertising shtick may state.   Let us know who you make out and good luck.

Hey everyone!! I just purchased a new-to-me 2012 MKZ with the 3.5 and I'm really diggin' it! ...all except for the vacuum cleaner-like sound of the exhaust. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with performance mufflers for these cars. Something definitely not loud, but with a bit of grumble, sort if what a stock Suburban sounds like with its LS motor.  Thanks in advance!   Scott

Yes. This is happening on many late model, low mileage used vehicles in the low to mid price ranges. It is crazy. 

There's been reports of people paying over original MSRP for used Camrys.
