Hugh Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Great Video. If I could afford it, I really was looking at a MKC. Still happy with my Escape though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Wife doesn't like the front end. Maybe it will look better to her in person. I love it personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radius Posted April 25, 2014 Share Posted April 25, 2014 Great video. I went back to look at it again and it was marked private on YouTube and I was unable to view it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
entropy Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 We launched production today!! It is a VERY pretty car. But I don't understand how production started in April, after Lincolon wouldn't let me sit in an MKC at the Houston show in mid Dec. I bought wifey a new Lexus bc Lincolon couldn't even give an estimate of when production MIGHT be started So i'm pissed off, yup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does production have to do with being able to sit in a car at the auto show? Production dates (estimates) have been published for several months. I think what you're really pissed off at is that your wife wasn't willing to wait and she forced you to get the Lexus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
entropy Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 I am pissed off that i really liked the looks and spec of the car, I wanted one, she would have loved one, but Lincoln couldn't then give me any real hope. I am patient enough to wait for my beloved MKZ, but felt burned by Lincoln. That ain't going to happen twice, you know the saying. The Lincoln rep at the Dec 15 show had no idea when it was going into production, not even speculation, it was presented much like a concept car. Not being able to sit in it told me they had no clear plans as to when they were going to release it. In Jan when cost build ups were available, my dealer still had no idea when it was going into production, saying things like "later this year". This STRONGLY reminded me of my MKZ which finally showed up in dealers show rooms how long after the same situation??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, basically, you're pissed that the MKC didn't end up coming in months later than expected just like the MKZ? Or are you just pissed about your MKZ and it's still carrying over?

tspindle Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 How can we see the video? It's still marked private. There is an MKC in our future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uucuu3 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Mine was built on May 2 and I got an e-mail last week saying it will be delivered to my dealer in Texas in about 4 weeks. I'll update when I can confirm its been released from the factory for shipping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jniffen Posted May 18, 2014 Share Posted May 18, 2014 I'm just wondering on the crash tests to see the results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jesster1228 Posted May 31, 2014 Author Share Posted May 31, 2014 Quick video of MKC test drives. I like how one of the guys says "Holy sh*t!" when his wife hits the pedal. Engine sounds a bit coarse to me. I assume it's quieter in real life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o9UJlUJR5DY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
