2009 Lincoln MKS (continued)
|
|
|
Summary
The MKS was never intended to be a sport sedan, rightly so. And venturing as it does deep into the realm of onboard connectivity, this car makes an extremely interesting entry. But after producing the enticing, discontinued LS, Lincoln seems to have ignored the idea that putting more athleticism in its cars and a smile of pleasure on the driver's face is never a bad thing.
NewCarTestDrive.com correspondent Ted West filed this report from Washington, D.C. Mitch McCullough contributed to this report.
