Does anybody other than me think the designers of the new Lincoln line went out of their way to make these vehicles ugly as an Aztec. Did they have consumers view them and give an opinion?

That first one looks like it should be in a pixar cartoon. It looks like it's smiling at you.

The Koreans steal American styling cues and mix them on their cars IMO. That sedan looks the other way around.

Back to Lincoln

It would be different if the brand is so ugly it was cute, but buyers are telling a different tale.

"It's a bad thing in that consumers don't see it as an aspirational vehicle."

And then there was one? Will Lincoln get dumped too?
I always liked the "Marks" and you could tell a Licoln a mile away with it's distinctive grill. Now, like the article said, no identity.

I liked my Mark VIII - it was fairly quick and had the most comfortable seats of any car I've ever owned. But it was starting to nickel-and-dime me to death, so it had to go.

sounds like my Cadillac

I looked at used Escalades before buying my Truck.
Figured I was better off just getting a new truck instead.
