Well it looks like Ford's about to dive into active suspension technology. If Linc gets it and Ford brand cars don't, or if they program the Lincolns differently than the Fords, they won't ride the same.

 

Definitely a Fusion. I can 100% confirm that.

For the MKZ, think mini-MKS with a slightly different lower portion.

Here's the 2013 MKS (found on Autoblog):

The authenticity of that MKS pic is disputed, it never appeared in an AB story and it never appeared on another reputable auto news website despite being labeled a Priddy (Brenda's shots always appear on multiple sites). Plus there's the fact that the lens of that headlight appears cross-eyed.

 

I noticed that as well. Found it searching for a shot of one for another purpose. I do know that the refreshed Lincolns will have a closer spaced, more slatted grille like that pic shows, but the headlamps don't appear to have been reworked.

 

That MKS is so ugly.

 

Yep, very ugly fake.

Looks good. Taillights are interesting, look like they connect across the back.

 

Looks better already.

 

Looks promising

 

look at the sideview mirrors closely at pic#1 & pic# 10 (last pic), it appears the MKZ is taking styling tidbits from an AM vantage for its mirrors....interesting, cant wait to see the unveiling!

 

this kinda reminds me of the Fusions japanese counterpart the Mazda 6. the first 6 look very sporty. same engine as the Fusion (or identical at least) and could equipped with a 5 speed manual behind it. then when they restyled the 6, IMO it looked bigger and much more luxurious (lack of a better word?) and less sporty than the previous 6.

 

MKZ is that you? from this teaser, im liking that grille treatment moreso than the new facelifted MKS and MKT.

Interesting...I think the trimmed headlamps/grille thing is going to be a design feature going forward, but the horizontal grille slats didn't seem to be.

 

Looks like a Saab 9-3.

 

 

Looks better already.

 

New Fusion and MKZ have noticeably different side profiles.

 

I think it will look good but those wheels are starting to scare me lol

 

There's an almost Mustang-like quality to that ****.
