At least it is a step in the right direction!

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> I agree about the tail lights not looking so good. They should be solid red with the exception of a portion at the bottom, preferably a rectangular shape, for the backup lights. Otherwise I do love the "I'm gonna eat the bumper off your car if I don't get to pass you" look of the front of the car.

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> I have an MKS on order and view it as the next coming of the Continental (which is what I may call it when I get it). People should hold their comments until driven or ridden in the car, or at least sat in it. Very, very comfortable and quiet. My one regret is that the direct-injected turbocharged engine won't be available from the start.

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> Id really like to like this car but I just cant. It looks like an uglier version of the Taurus/500/Sable/Montego. Who do they think will be fooled? They should have never killed the Marauder.

Please stop with the clear tail lights.

Thanks

pretty much the last car that Lincoln made that I wanted to own..remember that commercial where the car was hauling ass towards the goalpost and its speed sensitive suspension lowered the car to pass safely under???

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> This car was busted from the second it left the design studio. I agree completely with UDMan about the Altima rear end and although the new DRG (grill) is a step in the right direction, it's just too plain to be a Lincoln.

I say boo, hiss, give us a real damn Lincoln, Mr. Mulally.

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> it could do with some non-"euro" style rear lights, but the real question is why the car has, what looks to be, either police or taxi gear in it?

if they replaced the crown vic w/ this maybe the fare would be worth it for a taxi....for a copcar...I think it's got nothing on the corbin concept policecar.

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> Upon seeing this in person at the Philly car show, I was extremely unimpressed by its presence. It's certainly an inoffensive, cleanly-designed car, but not exciting in the least. Even the XF at least has a cool transmission dial...

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> It's sad that Lincoln's badge-engineered trucks are better than their badge-engineered cars. My neighbor owns a Mark whatever pickup and the interior in that thing is spectacular.

This car is supposedly going to take the retail sales of the Town Car.

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> Some people thought the MKS would be the spark that keeps Lincoln alive.

More and more though, it looks like the MKS is a power surge...except Lincoln is on life support. Flash then flatline.

Bring in the lawyer and the morphine...let's get this over with.

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> They replaced the LS for this?!

]]> <![CDATA[2009 Lincoln MKS Already Busted Up]]> I enjoy the front, but the rear, not so much. It has that whole "Imma eat you!" look as it barrels down the highway with its TTV6 beastliness.

Go Lincoln!
