Well, Lincoln markets towards an older audience -- like me. I doubt if there are many Lincoln owners in their 20's and 30's. I like the interior and the grille, and I always liked some wood in the interior, even if its fake, and the grill is a Lincoln signature. I'm getting to the age I would even like to see more chrome on new cars than they have right now.

nice G35 taillights
the square instrument cluster looks like it's from an F100 not an F150
my thoughts EXACTLY when i saw those rear lights...  and the front end looks like a bite off the bmw 7 series... and forget the interior all together...  fwd? c'mon now... if this is a replacement for the LS, i think it will fail more miserablly than the Tbird and Marauder...

The interior is retro. Check out the door panels. And the steering wheel is the ugliest thing since the Saturn Ion's.
The light coloured wood is just trying too hard.
Ugh.

This is not a replacement for the LS--it will be the baby brother of the LS--the new entry level Lincoln.

It does still need some more work (that's what a concept is). But I do still think it's a step in the right direction.

I agree with the grill, but I guess I'm getting old, I like the interior.
