The Lincoln brand will be represented by a MKZ and MKX both kitted out by 3dCarbon and featuring DVD entertainment systems, MagnaFlow exhaust kits and Brembo brakes.

The final Vehicle is the MRT enhanced Fusion T5 that features a turbocharged all-wheel-drive power train. The 3.0-liter V-6 sports a Garrett turbocharger, packaged and tuned by MRT/Precision Turbo and custom calibrated by SCT, while the entertainment package is developed by Rockwood audio. Just what Ford needs, a tricked out family hauler.
