Traded in my 2016 MKX reserve on Saturday for the 2019 Nautilus reserve

I must say Lincoln really did a nice job with the Nautilus.  The new front grill looks great and the ride itself is much better and quieter and although the cabin is basically they same as the MKX it feels a bit different but in good way.  I got the Nautilus fully loaded as was my MKX. Only difference was this time I made sure to get the upgraded 19 speaker stereo system.  I love it!  I drive in LA and traffic is never good so having a good stereo system is a plus.  The Revel 13 speaker system on my MKX was nice but the upgrade is much better and well worth it.   I got the 2.0L I4 ECOBOOST engine and it seems to have plenty enough pick up.  Its much better then the V6 engine I had in the MKX.   The start / stop feature is interesting. Not sure I like it but it might just take getting use to. I did again get the 22 way power seats but honestly its not the end of the world if you don't get this option.  I hardly ever used this in my MKX.  They only thing I wish Lincoln would have added is if the side mirror rotated down when in reverse so curb parking is easier.  It's annoying having to move the mirror manually when trying not the curb the 21 inch sweet looking rims when parking.   

 

Well if you are in the market for a new car definitely give the Nautilus a try.  Its got an amazing amount of bells and whistles that make the time spent in a car each day fun! 

 

Here are the options I got and would recommend.  

LINCOLN NAUTILUS TECH PACKAGE -  $1,720.00
DRIVER ASSISTANCE PACKAGE -  $1,590.00

ULTIMATE PACKAGE - $5,160.00
22-WAY PWR MULT CONT DRVR SEAT - $1,500.00

If you really believe what you said about the 22 way seat, why do you include a $1,500 seldom used option on your recommended list?

 

Agree with your assessment of the 2.0L engine. That is what I have and find it more than adequate for my driving needs.

I got theTurbo Charged 2.0L  I-4 engline.  They added a feature not in my MKX to adjust the ride you like in Sport, Normal or comfort.  Overall its a better ride and the pick up is ok for me.

If you can afford it get it but I'd rather have the other three packages over the seats is what I was trying to say.

I have on order a Reserve model as well and trading in my 2016 MKX. Ordered it with the base 2.0 engine, my MKX has the 3.7. Ordered Blue Diamond exterior/ Shale Interior, Tech Package and Driver assistance package. Will not see it till early April I am told. I did find from my limited test drive for it to be quieter as well.
