I like it! I agree that the rear 3/4 view looks great and the interior is amazing!

 

I can't put my finger on any one thing in particular but the rear views of it make Volvo and Jaguar pop into my mind.

 

 

The rear of that car is SHARP. Love it.

I agree though, somethings still wrong with the front. But it could grow on me.

 

The first thing that pops into my mind when I see the front is Hyundai Equus.

 

Was this design made or overseen by the guy who came over from Cadillac a while back or was it already done by then? Wasn't it done but then he tweaked it?

 

I love it.

IMO, this is the most beautiful American car since 2005 Chrysler 300C.

 

Yes, as I understand.

 

My impression is Wolfe did more than tweak, the vehicle's hardpoints were the same as they are now (too close to production to change) but it was formerly very boxy and lacked any of the flow it currently has.


Looks great in black, I must say:

impressive how concept and production look nearly identical! i think lincoln has a real winner here and love it in charcoal grey.

 

The no gear selector is pretty slick, this is the first application of that tech, no? Waiting to hear how smooth it operates.

I'd like nothing more than to see the 365hp Ecoboost in this with the AWD setup...

 

The all LED lighting is a nice touch. This car in black looks legit.

 

It is orgasmic. And in black it looks best as every Lincoln always should!

 

Heck no, my dad had an old Plymouth in the 60's that had that. I think they started in the 50's.






.

 

GAZ Chaika also had it in the late 1950s.

 

ha! nice. That's pretty neat.

I meant at least within Ford's lineup- either domestic products or overseas.

 

Nope. While Chrysler did indeed offer pushbutton automatic transmission controls for their PowerFlite and Torqueflite transmissions in '56, a first for mainstream American automakers, Ford followed with a mechanical pushbutton system for Lincoln-Mercury in '57. An electro-mechanical system debuted in '58 (Teletouch transmission system) on the Edsel.

 

Yup, I was just gonna say that, my neighbor had a 60ish Plymouth wagon. That thing was sweet.

I think this is an all around nice car, too bad it don't have a better name though

 

Overall, I actually really like the looks of this car...BUT...that front end has got to go. Looks terrible.

 

At least it's a sign of a step in the right direction. Hope this does well enough so there will be a next time.
Would also like to see an emphasis on weight reduction w/out sacrificing luxury. I bet this thing is a porker.
