I still say it looks like a Suzuki Forenza from the rear 3/4 view.

Very nice. I am sure it looks better in darker colors. This one is definately on the consideration list for my next vehicle.

I'm not sure if sexy is the right word for this car.
It's a good product for Lincoln. It gives all the hundreds of thousands of people who bought Town Cars and Continentals since 1998 a reason to come back to dealers, since most of those cars are still on the road, and Lincoln has failed to deliver an improved replacement for either.
It'll make Lincoln owners swoon, and will capture a fair number of German and Japanese owners as well. The idea is, the typical Navigator owner usually has an E350 or 528i sitting next to it in the driveway, and when they take in the big guy for service, they'll take a look at the MKS.

It will look good in Black. Luxury cars with ****loads of chrome always look bad in Silver.

GMi Member Spots the First MKS In a Public Parking Lot
For Lincoln Fans who have waited a long time to see a production Lincoln MKS, the wait may be coming to an end soon. A GMi Member Bigbuck16 snapped a few shots of the Vehicle. The workmanship looks to be very good with tight gaps and tolerances. The style of the MKS looks elegant unlike the critical reports in Automobile magazine a couple of months back (what was he smoking?) like our own kgm777 observed? (Oh GMi might claim him, just as they can claim me, 2b2, and many others here.) For a car fan it's always cool to be wandering around somewhere and stumble across a new model not yet on sale. Enjoy

The LS was a better car, and it was a mild failure. This car is more a rival to the Avalon and Azera, not the true competitor that Lincoln needs in the segment.

I will ask you one last time. Remove my name from your signature. Have you nothing better to say?

My thoughts, exactly. Gotta say though, that front end looks great.
Wow, I just said that about a Lincoln?

Seriousness now actually please, thank you.
More like it. Had it been a Hyundai or Kia, I'd be impressed. For a Lincoln, it's just sad.

CONGRATULATIONS and KUDOS for the photos!

At the end of March I saw an MKS in Nashville right outside the Opryland Hotel at the red light. I was turning and couldn't stop in traffic and get my camera. It looked great from across the intersection, but I didn't see the rear-end. From photos, I'm not a fan of the tail lights.

Unless you've been living under a rock, you'd know by now that the Avalon, Azera and other such near-lux rides are what Lincoln is aiming for. Anyone who thinks Lincoln holds Cadillac-like aspirations is seriously deluded and/or in denial
