SO...Has anyone seen the new MKS/MKZ?

This is just another step backwards for Lincoln in my opinion,and with Cadillac revealing their new ATS line,it looks like they'll leave Lincoln in the dust yet again.

WOW. Looks HOT!

Check this out below ladies and gents. Although not Lincoln, this is definitely pleasing to my eye. Reminds me of an Aston Martin. I know they're trying to steer away from sharing platforms, I think that's what I read, but I wouldn't mind seeing this a little spruced up and sportin' the Lincoln Star.

2013 Ford Fusion

How sweet would an SVT Fusion be? I owned a couple of SVT Contours that were pretty cool and reasonably priced. Imagine an AWD, 6 speed manual, 325HP Fusion with a few appearance and suspension upgrades. I'd take a look at that...

Too bad it's an automatic. Too bad the front end has an overbite and the rear looks like a Saturn. Too bad it costs $38K used.

Seriously though, I'm sure it's pretty nice. I just wouldn't call it sporty looking.

That 2013 Fusion Ecoboost concept sure looks nice to me. Maybe I'll just skip Lincoln when the time comes.

Have you heard about the Hennessey modified mks???? They have performance upgrades that bump the hp to 435!!! Not to shabby.

Price is actually really good. I've seen ones with the appearance package and under 30k go for 33-34,000. This is a 55k new car and being an '10 it's only 1.5-2 years old depending on when they bought. That's lincoln depreciation at its finest lol.

there dyno chart lists 332/328 hp/tq (which might be 435 at the flywheel? idk.) at the wheels with a quarter mile of 13.08. which is damn quick.
however.. there is faster out there.
a Livernois Motorsport tuned SHO is down to like 12.3 sec quarter mile times with 387 awhp and 423 lb/ft torque.. i'm sure they could do the same to an MKS. now thats some serious power.

Actually the front and rear looks more like an Infiniti. The entire stance really.

Yeah its practically a brand new car with only 16K miles on it.

Not many cars on this site can hang with it and its a V6 four door.
