Lincoln says it's going to be "not FWD", so whether it's based on the tauras or not, this is good news.

I've heard Lincoln wants to debut their 2016 MKS (internally codenamed Continental, by the way) at New York in a couple weeks. What with the CT6, we could be in for quite a showdown.

All true... but that kind of publicity would bring lots of non-Jalop people to Jalopnik.

Said engine was also taken from an airship. Not to mention it had chain drive (like most racers of the era), only 4 cylinders, no seatbelts, a wood frame (!), and the contact patch of a Matchbox car. One of many reasons it was labelled "The Beast of Turin".

The Fiat 126 (or more commonly the 126p) is one of the greatest cars ever built. Why? Because it introduced the everyman's car to Poland: it's Poland's Model T. Here's a photo from a photoshoot I did with a 15 year old's (!) stanced 126p.

Very interesting stuff. All these guys have Photoshop, though. All I have is Paint. >->

Oh deer me.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Because of the retro-ness?

Touch is a physical way of showing that you accept them and using it at the right time can be very charming. There's nothing wrong with a handshake when you introduce yourself, but beyond that, you don't want to abuse touch. Massages, head rubs, and a big smack on the back when you tell a joke can be great, but not…

I like your taste in airplanes. Most people are obsessed with some dumb fighter jet, but the real deal is in the '30s. Flying boats, prop engines, Art Deco. That's where it's at yo
