There’s a comparison image floating around of a dark blue production model and the concept. The dark blue looks wayyyyyyyyy better. I think we should give it a bit more time, I’m sure it looks much better in person.

I get that, but the fact that Dodge has them (makes their cars look way more upscale than they actually are) and Lincoln doesn’t seems odd. Oh well.

While I hadn’t noticed the change with the rockers, I think they made the right call on that. It would be ok with the white in this pic, but on a black or darker color car, it would be garish and get old quickly (not to mention the front would take a lot of road abuse). What they’ve done is more classy.

The move to individual LEDs from solid bands of light on the lower fascia cheapens the look. Audi had that shit in like 2007. Solid bands look infinitely more classy.

The interior shot isn’t doing the car any favors. The nav screen in the picture has the color palette of an old TI-83, which makes it look low tech, especially surrounded by buttons. That and the seats look like rental status grey cloth.

The Continental name has been around longer than most of us have been alive. While I admire Lincoln for bringing it back and trying to re-invent itself, it’s not some bold, rebellious move away from alphanumerics. The Lincoln Continental has always been a large luxury sedan. Lincoln has made a brand new large luxury…

Seconding the notion that you need to get over yourself.

This actually looks great. I love the interior especially. I wonder if they could actually offer that seating configuration. Seems like it would be nice for small families (and the Chinese, who love legroom). Maybe have the rear seats be able to fold up and scoot forward in some clever way if you need the cargo space,…

That’s fair. An SS cross-shopped with a 5-series makes perfect sense. But the M2 is MUCH cheaper than its bigger brothers. And I would argue that they offer totally different experiences too.

You don’t want to cross shop the M2 with a large, cushy, powerful RWD sedan, so you’re going to instead cross shop it with...a large, cushy RWD sedan. k

Well done.

I like it. I have no use for a truck and really don’t care for them, but it seems like a perfect alternative to the massive douche tractors that people love to buy now. Hopefully it’s cheaper by a good amount, that’s going to be key to getting people out of their real man trucks and into this.

Lovely, but I still can’t get past that strange squiggle on the C-pillar. I think it would look much cleaner without it, but it’s still an amazing looking car. And I’m a sucker for lights that are just solid lines, rather than individually visible LEDs.

Toyota is really tired of being called boring, I guess.

welp

I was in line at a store behind an ancient couple yesterday. After they finished and shuffled out, I finished my purchase and went back to my car. What were they leaving in? A Buick Enclave. I spent the next hour envisioning them going down to the Buick dealer, with fond memories of a Riviera or late 60s GS, only to…

There’s plenty of engines to choose from in GM’s parts bin. They could use Cadillac’s engine lineup and it would be perfect.

Lights look like Volvo to me. I know you didn’t say it was a Buick though.

Audi and BMW nailed it because theirs actually look feasible. Audi has a lot of information in front of you which some may like, and BMW’s seems more minimal, which I personally prefer. But both look great and I would be happy with either one.
