Until you realize there is no trunk.

No, because Buick.

They've been teasing us dealers with a Focus based Lincoln in the mid-20s for YEARS. Never seen it get past mockup. Now they've said they are turning their focus onto the MKC and then back to the MKX to make it remarkable.

Acura more luxurious than Lincoln? Oh lawd.

VW Golf / Beetle for those that just want a commuter, but want to be different,

Considering between now and December 2014 they will sell well over a million of them, not really.

I have a factory order in on one of the first 100 Fiesta STs. I'm thinking I'm either going to demote my Koup to AX duty or sell it to my buddy who really wants it. There's no way my boss would let me trade it in with a swap and drop, lol.

Yeah, about that ass...

This is the view out of my office. Do you see what I look at every day?

That's also $195 more than a new Focus, which, like the Mazda, doesn't have awful driving dynamics.

TBH, it's just like it's platform mate, the Flex. If you close your eyes as you're getting into it, it's fantastic. Ride is amazing, dead quiet, roomy, actually quite quick and capable with the 3.5L Ecoboost. But the looks are questionable.

Alright, that may be your one dealer. I have personally sold more MKZs this year than every other Lincoln combined. It's carrying the brand's sales right now. Also it doesn't drive like a turd and looks great. Plenty of old people love them, as I've proved over and over again in selling one. Just because you're old…

*cough* What Corolla?

Focus has IRS Control Blade.

Because we all need AWD in our commuter cars, right?

The MKZ is hardly a failure, but ok rag on Lincoln for their best, and only competitive car.

If you were completely unaware of their existence, than yes. Very much so.

KBB's Trade Value is trade allowance. Basically, it's discount + trade, which is what many people that deal with a dealership are used to seeing. If a dealership is reducing their car by $3000, expect your trade to come out lower than book.

NADA is wholesale book. KBB is Trade Allowance (discount + trade). Realistically? Books are a guide for when we're clueless. We use auction reports and VAuto (nationwide listings aggregation) more than anything. Much more accurate.

Haven't played a racing game past Forza on Easy recently, have you"?
