    Detroit 2012: Lincoln To Show MKZ Concept

    Alongside the new Ford Fusion, Lincoln will be showing off a thinly-disguised concept car version of its next-generation MKZ sedan at next week's Detroit Auto Show.

    “This is the biggest statement Lincoln has ever made at an auto show. Our NAIAS display represents more than a vehicle debut. It represents the reinvention of Lincoln,” said Lincoln design director Max Wolff.

    The MKZ marks the next step in Lincoln's revitalization plans. Last year Lincoln started to put the plan in motion by showing the refreshed MKS and MKT.

    Not much is known about the new MKZ besides retaining the Fusion’s front-biased architecture. Lincoln says the next MKZ will be much more distinct than the previous model.

    The dealership that got our franchise has since given it up, reportedly in response to Ford's demands for Lincoln stores going forward. Now there is no Lincoln outlet in Lancaster County. A lot of our loyal service and bodyshop Lincoln customers are very upset and angry. Rebuffing existing customer base before attracting a new one seems like suicide.

    • https://canadianautodealer.ca/2025/01/montreal-auto-show-is-back-with-lots-to-dazzle-the-eyes-and-hearts-of-consumers/   I went to the Montreal auto show.  And our show was a success. 163 000 attendees. That web site I linked up rounds up to 170 000.  It was a 14% increase over 2023 but last year's attendance was higher at 168 000.  And at 168 000, that is highest since 2019.  So our auto show is quite neutral. Neither up or down.  Just stable. 
    • Seems there is NO GOING BACK to the Glory Days of Old for Auto Shows as Detroit was a Failure. Detroit Auto Show Attendance Plummets As Glory Days Fade MAGA is going to find as their retires die off that the Glory days are not there and that MAGA was never gone as America is Great, much Like Canada or any country. The past days are water under the bridge and there is no going back.  Dictators will have to be dealt with as we fight to save our Democracy! FORD CEO Farly needs to put on his Big Boy Pants and focus on building Quality products rather than complain about Korea or Japan Auto's. Ford is building crap auto's and their EVs are falling behind. It really is pathetic what he says here. Ford CEO has tough words for his automotive rivals
    • Seems this has fallen apart after Nissan has refused to go deep enough in cuts to right their sinking ship. Could we be seeing the first Legacy Auto Company to Die? Nissan Looking for New Partner as Honda Deal Set to Collapse
    • It was a double whammy this past week with American style capitalism over Canada.   As I mentioned before, Amazon has closed all of its warehouses in Quebec because one warehouse DARE unionize and for the fear of further unionizations, well, they got outta Dodge... So, the city of Montreal in turn has ceased to buy the shytty made in China crap Amazon peddles.  Montreal will buy locally and by the threat of American tariffs on Canadian products, Montreal will also buy products made in Canada or elsewhere in the world NOT named United States of America. https://www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/article/the-city-of-montreal-announces-it-will-stop-ordering-from-amazon/
