Unless your automotive enthusiast soul is under a leaky Rover, then you are probably aware that Lincoln showed off its Continental Concept at the New York International Auto Show on the internet over night. It’s a really nice concept and you can read all about it on websites that cover stuff like that.
But that concept isn’t perfect. It is missing an extremely important Lincoln design – the Continental tire!
Thank heavens that @DCCARGEEK is there to save the day. Lincoln, get at it. It’s now perfect.

IMO, the Mark VII LSC is the most desirable of all the recent Lincolns, followed by the LS V8.
Looks like a Jag. Ford copies Aston, Lincoln copies Jag, got it.
And Ford trucks (plus Explorer) copy Range Rover. Yup, buy a brand from FoMoCo and you’ll be ripped off for years to come!
Looks like a Bentley Flying Spur. And the Bentley designers aren’t happy at the almost Chinese grade of copy rip-off.

On the Facebook page of Lincoln chief designer David Woodhouse,
Donckerwolke asked rhetorically: “Do you want us to send the product
tooling?” The comment was deleted swiftly.
Speaking with Car Design News,
Donckerwolke elaborates: “This behavior is not respectable. Building a
copy like this is giving a bad name to the car design world.” And his
exterior design chief, Sangyup Lee, describing the Lincoln as “a joke,”
adding: “It is very disappointing, especially for an exclusive brand
like Lincoln.”

It’s a pleasant design to start with, a big dose of Bentley and Audi in there. The shiny interior will work nicely in China.
Just make this again. Please. http://www.ponti.com.pl/files/lincoln-mark-viii-1996%5B3%5D.jpg
You spelled “Ruined” wrong.
They’ve also announced an LA Custom Edition.
That’s the Florida Edition. Trust me, I live here… I understand that last sentence contradicts itself.
Shrink-wrap that tire in chrome colored vinyl wrap and you’ll be there!
I know this is supposed to be a joke, but I…I kinda like it!
