2017 Lincoln MKX Black Label Review: Curbed with Craig Cole
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 жов 2024
- Cadillac is adored by the press for building sporty, emotional vehicles like the ATS-V. In contrast, longtime-rival Lincoln receives all the scorn for a lineup comprised largely of warmed-over Fords. But, this brand’s sales are actually growing at a significant rate thanks to new vehicles like their MKX crossover as well as a focus on luxury through its Black Label program.

That indulgence of its customers should raise a highly needed Lincoln sales.
I just bought one after a month of overwhelming car shopping and LOVE IT! I have the Black Label MUSE edition and it's been so worth it.
Lincoln has the right idea here. People who buy expensive cars care about the car AND the experience. I think Lincoln should stick to luxurious, smooth, and reliable cars while taking individually tailored service seriously. Master these two aspects and soon they'll have the American Lexus, which is something a large demographic of prospective customers actually wants.
Adam Bernard the Escalade and Lincoln was always the best and first luxurious cars made.
Adam Bernard my family loves the new Lincoln's!
David Klimmek ya my dad owns a Lincoln too he loves it
this is my moms car she has a black exterior and modern heritage interior and it drives like a dream it has many cool safety features and is 7 years old and still keeps up greatly with all the new cars i’ve been in , it’s also pretty fast and fun to drive
This Lincoln MKX goes hard if I can't afford one I'll definitely get one I always been a big fan of the Lincoln cars
I admire that they bother to wrap the interior in high quality leather. Too many luxury cars are filled with injection molded plastic.
damn....i didnt know Lincoln went this deep with their customers and how really nice their suvs are and how personal they get. I just bought a 2017 Ford Escape SE Ecoboost 4WD, and I was thinking of the adventures i will be having, so i went with the Escape, but after looking at these very nice looking SUV's, i might trade it in haha...
Love love love this car, and as always, love Craig's presentation.
Great video!! Thanks for showcasing our dealership!! Come back and see us soon!
What do you suggest they curb?
Nice concept. great review as always!
there was no review
TheNokiaLumia it was a review of the Lincoln philosophy and new luxury concept. Jesus.
Was there a car review somewhere in that video?
If your all piss and vinegar on it then you obviously have not sat in one. If your still pissy then you obviously cant form an unbiased opinion about fit finish and quality of materials. They compete in every way to the germans. Ive driven both line ups(Mercedes & Lincoln).
I would be lost without my Lincoln
I like Lincoln
not competitive for the price in its segment, the black label needs to be standard across all its line.
The extended protection is not exclusive to black label cars.
seems like ad
The newer model MKX's are to small compared to the later model's. Keep the size from 2011 and increase the speed and fuel efficiency and I am in.
black label themes should be vast & not limited for example I would like to have the Bentley muslanne famous interior color the red ( main ) & white ( secondary ) with ziricote wood trim which American luxury cars used to have in the 60's & 70's or the BMW m6 tan with white ash wood interior or brown with paige with ziricote wood trim however the best black label theme is the mkz chalet but same thing goes for cadillac & it's ironic that car custom workshops can do more than a factory with its big machines & capabilities .
What is the name of the track, and who performs the piano riffs used in the video at 0:38 and 3:36?
Thanks in advance.
hey Troy Michigan!!! let's meet up sometime and review a car together Craig Cole!!
He was at Troy Motor Mall.
abuffnoob love me some Michigan !
Classy piano intro.
As with all Lincolns these will make excellent 2nd owner cars after 3 years when they are worth 40% of MSRP. I will seriously consider a black label Continental a few years from now.
The reviewer forgot to mention that the Black Label package on the MKX adds more than $15K to the price. Not sure the "improvements" they made is really worth it. It still has the tacky looking center stack with huge pieces of cheap plastic. Lincoln also manages to make the real wood trim, look like fake plastic. Lincoln still doesn't compete with the luxury brands like Mercedes/Audi/BMW/Lexus/Jaguar/even Cadillac. Lincoln is still more sub-luxury like Buick/Acura/Infiniti/upcoming Genesis.
I always did think that the center stack plastic looked a bit out of place in something that expensive. Perhaps a different grade of plastic would be great and the turn signals COULD be different from the ones used in the Fiesta and Focus. But other than that, i personally find Lincolns of late to have amazing interiors. Certainly better than Buicks.
+Austin Chase But tires aren't included...it just "covers all required maintenance, including wear items such as shock absorbers, engine belts, hoses and hose clamps, brake pads and linings, wiper blades and spark plugs."
+Austin Chase what I'm quoting is the tiny fine print on their website.
Literally ever car has plastic near the infotainment screen. Also, sure Mercedes and BMW may be better than Lincoln, but Cadillac, Lexus, and Audi aren't really much better than Lincoln. Audi uses nothing but plastic in their cars, but because their well put together no one complains. Lexus is alright and Cadillac is nothing special. I like how he called a Cadillac ATS an excellent vehicle. No one when thinking of great cars thinks about a ATS.
Canst remember the last time someone said "WOW! NICE LINCOLN!!" It was probably in the 1990s coming from a person driving a Chevette.
Imho, their designs still have serious flaws. The new Continental is much better but Lincoln is not there yet. I think they are still some over priced Fords.
Nice, will probably be my next vehicle. May not get the top package and have to remain on fast food lol. My fox body Ford is over 25 years old and still starts every time and runs well. She's been my only vehicle and I her only owner and I've done nothing to her except maintenance items. No engine rebuild, transmission etc. Don't feel right getting a new vehicle as long as she's in good shape and the longer she goes the more I can save for a new Lincoln... Knowing her I might get that steak after all :). Though parting will be so very sad.
I suggest that you pick up the 2018 MKX with 3.7L V6 now. The new Ford Ecoboost twin-turbo junk have a shorter-lifespan of only 10 years now, plus lower reliability than 3.7L with 20-year lifespan.
Extensive training............pffft......yeah right....
A right step in the right direction, but the console is just cheap and ugly. But their future is a lot brighter than it was before
how exactly is this a review? literally nothing was reviewed...he spent the entire video talking about the fucking black label, this was a giant waste of time.
Once you go Black Label.....
😂😂
I love it. wish the front wasn't so long tho😘🌹🚘
Sounds more like a commercial than a review.
Gotta love the Skinny
Impressive
Nice car
They totally copied AUDI A4's front design with that lincoln sedan in 3:18
Didn't know Mr. Rogers review cars now days.
Does it come qith a 12 pack of beer ?
they are still selling less than Buick, Infiniti, and Acura in the US. but with that said this definitely can help Lincoln move away from the pleathers, injection molds, and plastic fake woods that is currently plaguing their line up of clearly rebaed fords. the one annoying thing still is that the interior architecture and switch gear remains the same as their lower end ford counter parts. though with that said the majority of their line up is still nothing but a Buick / Acura competitor, they still have a ways to go before they can take on Cadillac and Lexus.
news flash Lincoln still under ford ownership but they are working alone since 2010-2011 so that's why you see huge change in the brand
+mohammadkwt what huge change...still seems to be mostly the same slightly improved Ford.
dcharizard91 +1
M to the K to the X...
+dcharizard91 you saw how the new continental & navigator concept are it's all new & nothing close to ford vehicles & if you wanna talk about similarities there's no big difference between a Denali & escalade just a minor exterior difference & minor interior add-ons even when they are fully loaded while the rest is same ( engine , transmission etc..... )
Love that Ford Edge.
great car with an ugly back. The rear lights needs re-design. it should be more like MKC's rear light
I bought a new 2016 MKX and after 3 months was forced to sell it due to large amounts of fiberglass passing out the exhaust and polutting the whole vehicle and interior. 5 months after selling it and losing $18,000.00 I still cough from inhaling this fiberglass. Lincoln would not assist me in this problem and told me to keep the windows up. I was told not to call them any more. This problem may be viewed { 2016 Lincoln MKX problems on utube } This is only in the 2.7 eco engine vehicles .
Ron Miller so why not get legal action involved?
I love how Lincoln has gone back to the ways of excess solely for the sake of it, just like they did in the 70s with their land yachts
This just seems like an ad
Black Label reminds me of cheap beer.
It is a good car
Hopefully one day they'll have suitable cars to put in that fancy lounge.
Nicholas Smith stop hating
So you can polish a turd?
Atleast it doesn't look like a hearse like the MKT
True but some of the "turd" is finally starting to rub off in areas.
He's not well..
dat ford doe.
The horrific condition of US roads is highlighted in this video, shameful, but the 1% in their cocoons don't care.
Horrific Michigan roads at least. In other places they're not nearly as bad... like Baghdad or Somalia, LOL!
+Craig Cole Michigan road do suck, but I love living in the automotive capital of the world ;)
That road (Maple Road) isn't even that bad for Michigan standards. You should google Mound Road if you want to see a road in southeast Michigan that is not in the best conditions.
Car still looks like ass... Also did anyone else notice the newer silver car at the dealership has a serious copy/paste front end of a Jaguar XE?
Considering Ford use to own Jaguar I guess you could say it's Ford's design language anyway.
Black label? More like the Black Bag they put on adult magazines in a seedy gas station.
well until they make another front-engine / RWD 2-door powerhouse i'll stick to buying used mk viii's
front is like ugly french suv .....interior yes now we can chat....
Охуенная тачка...
not funny dude
This guy is so annoying.
Ugh...this was just an advertisement for Lincoln. I'm unsubbing. Come on people. Come unsub with me. Let these guys know slime like this is a slippery slope for us to unsub...
Who Buys a $60,000 Ford ?
It's not a Ford.
Uggh the front end of that SUV is just so damn ugly! WOW Lincoln has been so dull and ugly the past 10 years....they used to be so nice all through the 90s.
