Toothy Grille

Toothy Grille - 2011 Lincoln MKZ Review - Reviews - Lincoln MKZ

The MKZ's styling is starting to grow on me. The front end is distinctive. It gets a new tooth-like grille for 2010, which bears a closer resemblance to models like Lincoln's MKS full-size sedan and MKT full-size crossover.

After you get beyond the grille — which I didn't really care for when I first saw the car at an auto show — the rest of the sedan is rather ordinary and looks a lot like its siblings, the Ford Fusion and Mercury Milan. Sure, it has different taillights that sweep across the trunk lid, but otherwise it's similar.
