    Watch out for the dealerships

    This dealership not so much, I have tried to make deals with them and they end up raising the price of the vehicle or talking me it is sold because I am paying with cash no trade.

    The Lincoln mkc is a great vehicle. The ride and C

    We look at one of these Lincoln mkc a while back 2017 or 2018. But never thought we were able to get something so great and stylish. My wife fell in love with it then And has been looking at them every since. These are her two most favorite vehicles over all. Thank you so much James Beard of Paragould Arkansas.

    Suspension is terrible

    I have the 2018 MKC Premier. On smooth roads, the vehicle feels fine. On any rough or uneven roads, when the road isn't flat, the car sways, bucks, and I feel like a bobble head. I bought the car a couple months ago with 16K miles on it. It looks and feels like new, but the suspension... not good. I wish I had test-driven it on bad roads.

    Luxurious

    I Love the style of this car that drives so smooth. The interior is so luxurious and the seats are so comfortable. The service at Varsity Lincoln in Novi was very friendly and fast. Jere Law went out of his way to make sure I was happy with my decision. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Without a doubt this car was the best choice!

    Should NEVER have left owning a Lincoln.

    Superb handling, great style AND color (Blue Diamond), just enough cargo space for us, plenty of spunk, especially compared to the 2019 Jeep Cherokee Latitude. Love the handling, especially on our AZ highways and responsiveness.
