It seems at least that Ford finally understands that you can't just take a Crown Victoria and rebadge it as Lincoln. I'm not a huge Lincoln fan, but this this looks bad arse. Not a fan of the rims though.

Nice looking, but that chrome up front is going to be ruined after your first drive through town.

Most trucks have no issues with chrome bumpers. Why would this be different?

It looks nothing like a 300 to me. I see a little Audi A7 in the back, but there is nothing that looks like a 300 to me.

There are better pics out there and the video is pretty good. I didn't get a 300 vibe from it, hopefully.

Looks pretty bad arse. I don't like the rims either, but I doubt they end up on the car.

Do trucks sit 2 inches off the ground?

And to me it looks like a cross between an Audi and that expensive Kia(forgetting what it's called)

Chrome is going to fare a whole lot better than paint would.

The interior of the door is terrible, so are the wheels. Not a bad looking car though.

All I'm saying is if it's good enough for trucks that run on the highway hundreds of thousands of miles each year and still look good, I'm fairly certain it will hold up on a Lincoln.

I just looked at the video again, and it has some really cool bells and whistles, like the headlights. I know cars are much more than that, but it really had some nice features.

I never said chrome was a bad thing for a car to have, just that having it two inches from the ground doesn't seem to be a good idea(which is why trucks have a plastic protective strip under their bumpers). And that's on top of what, 8" of ground clearance?

I like the direction that Lincoln has been going in. Their SUVs are very sharp. The current model cars are nice too, but the nose looks like a bird beak.

The concept in the OP is very European inspired. Very nice.

I've always said the same thing about the bird face. This one finally looks like they are going away from that awful look.
