Though this might make for a good Lincoln Mark VIII (or MXIX), even though I don't like their front end designs very much.

Looks somewhat like a fisker karma from that angle!

Not bad at all. Any chance of taking a swing at giving it quarter windows like those on the current 'Stang?

Those quarter windows are very unique to the Mustang and I wouldn't want any other car to have them.

Hmm.... If they change the Lincoln grill a bit, it could look good as a Lincoln.

Ok valid point. How about thickening up the C-pillar a little bit?

That could work.
Might be a bit too S5-ish, but I happen to like that car to

Sounds like something Lincoln could use to take it to the CTS(-V) coupe and the S5. Agree about altering the rear quarter windows, and those Fairlane tail lights look something like the Lincoln badge/symbol or what ever it is called.

Nice work here! Would love to see you tackle the same type 2-door project starting with a new Fusion body! Perfect size for a front wheel sports car. And Ford has already done all the R&D with their engine options. They just now need a nice 2-door body to put all the pieces in! Thinking younger folks would probably get in line for one of those FoMoCo coupes. CalStang

I own a 2010 SHO and i love it. If they made this car just like you have it with the same power plant it could compete with the new 2 door caddy I think.

Or drop a 5.0 under the hood but tube it a bit different or a de-tuned version of the 5.4 heart from the shelby. And use the 3.6 ecoboost so it can hit thw v6 and v8 caddy coupes
