After looking at it some more the front is too rugged, there is no style or elegance in the front like their is the back. The grill looks like some crap west coast customs or will castro would do.

Hideous,
Looks like a Maybach molested an A8 and the illegitimate offspring turned out looking like this and then it went to the chrome department at JC Whitney.
Go back to the 427 concept Ford, there you were onto something
It's all BS until you can show me the time slip!

I see lots of win and some dumb mistakes.
The good
- SEXY, Sexy enough to bleed out the eyeballs (in payments) for.
- Grill: awesome.
- Back seat centric: awesome.
- Headlights: awesome.
- Actual sedan shape: Awesome.
- shag carpet: Balls!
- Chrome: shiny.
- IMO they should put the raptor engine in this. Ford's making a higher output (bigger displacement?) ecoboost, debuting in the raptor.
The bad
- RWD would be best but a nearly as good option would be AWD. Everybody that makes a 2WD car looses some of north east USA. Of course Ford will probably chickenshit out and make it FWD.
- Clearly wasted space in the back. Move that subframe and the back seat back a few inches. If my monthly payment makes me want to die, my 6ft+ passengers better be able to strech out the tips of their toes in the shag carpet at the same time the driver fights consciousness from being all the way back and nearly horizontal.
The ugly
- WTF? What are you guys on crack? a 4 seater? That had better be a folding console that reveals a 5th seat. Cummon 4 seats was volt's top looser move. What good is a boat if you can't smash in the back seat?
- NYC is getting the **** kicked out of it on mandatory taxis (n200s). Sieze the day. Win back whole fleets which you so stupendously lost (at least 3 times in less than 10 years). People will pay extra for a ride to the gala in one of these.
My understanding is that the platform supports BOTH RWD and FWD. Yes, it is so awkward, that I remembered it.

Another car for ford to slap an ecoboost badge on. I have a hard time seeing otherwise. Oh and as for RWD I won't believe it til I see it. American Acura at its best. I really hope they don't screw up the Continental. Ford's last attempt to have me as a future customer again.

I wonder if Ford would be silly enough to try a V8 eco-boost???

Ford needs to make a 4-door based on the mustang platform.
If its a Lincoln then fine.
I eat apples until my stomach feels much more full than its normal.
Headlights: Ugly.
Grille: Ugly.
Back end: OK...I guess.
Profile: Nice.
Interior: Decent.
Engine (3L EB): Marginal.
Wrong-wheel Drive: FAIL.

Not that I'd buy it, or afford it for that matter, but overall I like it. It's, for the most part, aesthetically pleasing. As far as drivetrain goes, I'd like to see RWD and a V8, that being said, it seems they're general focus is towards getting away from bigger engines. We'll see what the future holds, but I think this is a good start.
