Tone down the huge chrome grille and the front end would look decent, somewhat TSX-ish.

The back looks terribly generic, like a Hyundai or Kia.

The interior, while a serious step forward, looks targeted toward the 85+ crowd.

Almost there Lincoln. Just keep moving in this direction.

I'm hoping the TT V6 will be a bit more agressive looking and will be sporting around 400hp. Then I might consider this thing (as I get older, thinking bout starting a family, etc..).

I do not like the looks of this vehicle, and I especially dislike the interior. Lincoln has managed to introduce some circa 1980's styling (lots of squares and rectangles) into this car. If that was their intent, I don't understand it.

I am really trying to be objective here. I'm not a fan of a lot of the exteriors of new cars coming out now, whether foreign or domestic. But Lincoln has just managed to outdo any other 'luxury' car maker in terms of terrible interior design.

The Fusion, Milan, Mazda6, and MKZ share the same platform or chassis. The new Lincoln MKS shares the same platform or chassis with the Taurus, Sable, and S80 (all of which have a much larger wheelbase than Fusion). Not a fan of the MKS so far, but I reserve my opinion on it until I see and drive one, it should much better than the outdated Towncar.

I had no idea whatsoever that the S80 and the Taurus/Sable shared the same chassis, and to be quite honest, am shocked.

Isn't the S80 approximately 40% more than the price of a garden variety Taurus/Sable?
