I think the Zephyr looks amazing. If it comes out i might consider buying it, if it comes with something better than that 3.0.

The Zephyr is not the LS replacement. It's suppose to lure younger buyers to the Lincoln brand. Something that Lincoln thought the LS was going to do. The LS will probably see a replacement in the 2008 model year.

Maybe the Mark VIX?

Here is a few photos I took at the NYC auto show of the Zephyr.

Yeah the photos are bad, but the camera it self was NOT digital. So what do you want?

Posted by: JoeyLincolnMK8

either way thanks for sharing the photos!!!

eh?

VIX makes no sense. That would be like Mark 14 or something.

I know, you prolly meant IX (9). Just couldnt help it.

I think the Zephyr is a reall good looking car. Unfortunately, it's just another sign of American automakers half a$$ing it when it comes to cars. It needs the 3.5 liter. I mean in all honesty, this thing could have been a 3-series beater. Too bad, because I LOVE the way the car looks. Oh well.

i think its hella sexy and will do exatly what it is designed for. i wouldnt mind owning one in black. ::drool::

the car i want to see in production is the continental concept.. my god.. that thing is amazing. all it needs is a good 300-350 hp and it would be the top selling car in america..

Yeah, it'll do what it's designed to do if it's designed to be the slowest car in its class. The big three need to learn to give us what we want, not what they think we'll accept that fits in a tight budget.

Posted by: Nakoa

well, if it is the slowest car in its class, atleast it looks better than anything in its class..
