Lincoln Considering RWD Flagship Sedan

Sweet. I'd like to see this happen. Lincoln needs a good boost.

Agreed. Though Lincoln should be now be focused on a global vehicle to actually compete with the major luxury automakers, they better design something that can be sustained for the long term.

I want them to design a flagship that consumers are interested in 4-5 years after being introduced. I want consumers to appreciate a good redesign but still be interested in the original.

Finally, a Lincoln that can be given a decent amount of horsepower(aka not front drive). I hope that the upcoming 5.8-liter V-8 is dropped into the thing. LINCOLN NEEDS A HALO CAR, and that could be it.

Isnt that an old concept car from 4 or 5 years ago? Lincoln does need a boost but I don't think this particular car is it.

I'm sure the photo was just to depict the last time Lincoln showed a concept sedan... Man what a stinker that was! Looks like they asked a 9-year-old to draw a car.

Lincoln needs to first get their bases covered before developing any kind of flagship sedan. They need both an entry level luxury car (something serious...not the MKZ) and a premium mid-sizer to compete with 5-Series, E-Class, and Caddy CTS. From there, a flagship would make sense. Starting at the top and working backwards did work for Lexus, but times and buyers are much different now. Anyway, I wish Lincoln the best!

they will make it some over priced uncompetitive avg car ( and give it a confusing name, perhaps MK R, for the rear drive )
lincoln sucks compared to Cadillac even worse against lexus, infiniti and acura ... 3 brands i think are MUCH better than lincoln, i wont even begin to put them in the same sentence as the Germans.

CONSIDERING??????? It should be in the pipeline by now! See new Caddy XTS.

Agreed. It's kind of too late already.
