Anybody have photos of the rear taillights on the 2017 MKZ? I just love my 2016 MKZ and hope they don't screw up the beautiful taillight design.

More good news...http://www.cheatsheet.com/automobiles/how-fords-2-0-liter-sedan-became-police-pursuit-rated.html/

Heads up to all you 2.0 MKZ Owners, just because your engine has been qualified as 'Pursuit Approved' by the prestigious law enforcement organizations, it does NOT allow you to go hot rodding around town. Just kidding. Seriously, this is great news for us owners. I know my 2016 MKZ has impressive performance after driving it off the dealers lot last month and had to check the actual speed times. 0-60 is 7.1 for FWD (AWD is 6.9).....15.3 Quarter Mile at 94 MPH.(autofiles.com) Using 87 octane....26.5 MPG...Mostly city. Hey, this MKZ weighs in at almost 2 tons...so I'm happy. Not taking away from the bigger V-6 brother, I just love this car. Google today and the article is posted. Here is a quote:Both police departments also now say the Ford Police Interceptor Sedan with the 2.0-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder is ready for a chase. Ford introduced the model in 2013, and it passed the LASD and MSP's 32-lap tests this year. According to Terry, there are no changes to the model this year, but they "concluded that it could (and now is) pursuit rated." I know it's in the Taurus platform with upgraded brakes etc...but the base engine approval is nice to hear.

You can't get the white DRLs on the Standard 100 package. I just contacted Lincoln Concierge and was advised. Pretty cheap of Lincoln...especially with all the Kia, Hyundai and little Hondas running around in my neighborhood with the cool white DRLs.

I contacted Lincoln Concierge to see if they had any information on finding any models. Only Ford does on vehicles like Transit, Mustang , Fusion (merchandise.Ford.com) could be found. I also emailed the seller on ebay....all the remaining die casts are red.Oh well.

Did you buy on ebay? Is red the only color....I have a white platinum MKZ.

Does anyone know if Lincoln ,or anyone else, sells die cast models of the MKZ? I spotted this item on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Die-cast-1-43-scale-4-inch-in-length-2013-Lincoln-MKZ-Collectors-Model-/231709504136?hash=item35f2f67288:g:2KQAAOSweW5VCyzO

Thanks...

Any particular brand to buy?

I just bought a new 2016 Lincoln MKZ and was wondering what any Z Owners used on that black glass rear deck that is between the trunk lid and rear window. I don't believe it will take waxing. Is it simply glass? If so, what about spraying Rain X on it?

I used to use Liquid Glass on my cars until I noticed it left fine spider web marks/swirls on my black Taurus. I discovered it has a mild cleaner in it. I stopped buying it after that! I now ONLY use Meguiar's Gold Class Carnauba Plus Paste Wax.....it has no cleaners to scratch your car. Wal-Mart sells it for about $11. Always use micro fibre towels with waxing.

I actually worked at Ford in vehicle operations, so I am familiar with the process..and it was a great job. UPS logistics now handles vehicle distribution for Ford. After the railcar arrives in Michigan, the vehicles are offloaded and eventually transported via haulaway carriers to the dealers. I will see how well the Lincoln Concierge rep does with locating my delivery. She said she would call me Thursday.

I ordered my MKZ September 1st and it was built on September 21st. Research Maniacs website will supply your window sticker. I called Lincoln sales to inquire on my delivery to dealer, since it was shipped rail from the plant. I was impressed at how helpful they were. I was told delivery could be by this Friday, but they would verify and call me back this Thursday with the information. The Lincoln Concierge rep gave me her personal extension to call if I had any questions and she thanked me for buying a new Lincoln. Wow.
