When out and about this weekend, we stumbled across the new hotness from the Dearborn gang: the 2009 Lincoln MKS. Too bad it's already old and busted. Somebody made a boo-boo on the lower intake of the pretty-in-pearl M-plated car and for some reason attached a tow bar in the wound. In any case, this is the first one we've seen running around full-monty on the streets of Detroit so we'll assume this is one of those mules that get whipped right before production ramp-up starts.
