nother Mustang-based concept headed for the Detroit show is the four door Lincoln MKR. The Lincoln concept features independent rear suspension and a 415-hp twin-turbo V6 running on E85 ethanol. MKR is the first expression of future Lincoln design, featuring high beltlines, strong C-pillars and double-wing grilles.

Don't know about you guys, but I'm not a fan of this at all!

I read about this in Car and Driver, and I love it. Maybe I'll trade in my hot rod Lincoln for this one

They better stop wasting money on concepts or they will no longer be a car company by 2010. Such a waste of revenue.

Concepts are a major part of a car company. They spark interest. Remember how much praise the 04 Mustang concept got? This one just sucks.

Staying in business is JOB 1 not making cars to show a bunch of writers about what we could build.

That exterior picture does not do the car justice. I saw the article in Car and Driver too. The car looks awesome, and I am not a luxury car guy. Check these pictures out.

I like it. Lincoln is really making an effort to move away from the stodgy-old-person styling. Caddy has been making some nice looking cars for several years now that appeal to a younger set, it's about time Lincoln plays catch up.

I was at the employee "Showroom of the Future" to see coming models. I had to sign a confidentiality agreement so there is a lot I can't say. What I can say is that the grill treatment you see there is coming on Lincolns real soon. Also you will see that treatment on several models, but what is inserted in the opening will denote if it is a luxury car or a luxury sport. They look really sharp.

Those pics don't look to bad at all... perhaps it was just the color and the angle of the car in the pic I posted.

Posted by: Aussie XAXB

I think it was the angle. Usually that low angle like that is really dramatic, but with the body lines of this car it makes it look weird, like it is carved out funky. Normally we never see that angle because we stand by the car instead of crouch. That's what usually makes that angle look so cool, we rarely ever see it.

Geessshh...someone tell me to shut up.
