Personally, I'd take either Linc over a Caddy. Looking up the specs now, though, I think that every MKS that I've had included the "Technology Package" (rain-sense wipers, adaptive headlights, rear sunshade, forward sensors, push button start, etc). Even without those, I think the base is better than a basic CTS/STS. I will agree with you that the MKS feels very big and bulky, but I don't mind it at all, as long as it has enough pickup for me (heck, I loved the DTS when Avis had that boat in it's lineup). The only negative that really bothered me on the MKS is the very harsh torque steer on 2 or 3 of them.
