  | Re: Lincoln MKS @ 2007 LA Auto Show It is too bad they didn't debut the new engine with this car because it would have been a formidable package IMO. The interior is a major improvement for Lincoln:   M

| Re: Lincoln MKS @ 2007 LA Auto Show The Lincoln looks good inside and out, the headlights are very similar to the Accord Euro, but the rest of the design is fine. The interior quality and the various buttons looks well made, unlike most American cars.

| Re: Lincoln MKS @ 2007 LA Auto Show The interior almost looks like the Jaguar XF's in certain places. The only thing I don't like is that steering wheel from every other Lincoln. M

| Re: New Lincoln MKS Yeah, the steering wheel ain't nice and also those door panels look a little bit cheap compared to rest of the interior. But overall, nice job by Lincoln.

| Re: Lincoln MKS @ 2007 LA Auto Show The horizontal theme, and the positioning of the sat nav scree between the two central air vents does suggest there are hints of the XF interior. I wish they have paid more attention on the rather plain looking door panel. The center hub of the steering wheel does look a bit big and featureless, but it doesn't look too cheap.

| Re: New Lincoln MKS Then again there could be some Volvo influence here too. Either way this interior is an about-face for Lincoln compared to this horrific mess:  M
