Lincoln's New MKZ Looks Nice, But It Has A Lot Of Flaws [PHOTOS]
Alex Davies / Business Insider In December, Ford announced it was rebranding its luxury brand Lincoln, which is languishing in eighth place in the American luxury segment.
That plan involved a name change, a big marketing push, and the 2013 MKZ, the first of four new Lincoln cars Ford plans to debut over the next four years.
Lincoln has made some iconic, amazing cars in its day. It has made some truly terrible ones.

It's based on the Ford Fusion, with different bodywork. The Fusion is a great $21,000 car. But, even with a sexier body and luxury features, it is not a great $37,815 car.
