Default Lincoln Announces Zephyr Pricing

Another nameplate gone to ****. Well ok to be fair the Mazda 6 platorm is a great starting point but oh please... underpinning a Lincoln and possibly destined to replace the RWD LS? I really hope that the rumors are true and Ford at least conjures up a 40/60 split AWD version packing the Yamaha 4.4L V8 (in addition to the larger 3.5L V6 which will also find its way into the Five Hundred and Freestyle) recently introduced in the Volvo XC90 to replace the LS as the base 3.0L FWD version is just plain no justice.

Anyway here's the link:

Simply sexy design saddled with FWD V6 underpinnings. Sad when you think that Lincoln was kickin the **** ouf of Cadillac a little over a half a decade ago.
