Concept cars gone bad: Crazy concept cars that baffle the imagination (490 hits)
Concept cars gone bad, featuring the Lincoln C Concept
Lincoln C Concept Introduced at 2009 North American International Auto Show
We hope the designers at Ford know that Lincolns are not compact cars. At its best, a Lincoln is a big, glorious boat that glides over asphalt like a classic Chris-Craft yacht does on water. Kennedy's limo - that was a Lincoln. The car in The Matrix - that was a Lincoln.
The C Concept, on the other hand, is a Fiat Multipla -- a stubby, high-domed monstrosity with a protuberant rear end that doesn't deserve to wear the classic Lincoln suicide doors. We're all for efficiency; we love that the marvelous EcoBoost engine gives the V6 MKS the feeling of a V8. But there's a time and a place. If we want a fuel-efficient compact car, we'll get a Fiesta.
