    Not if the quality of materials, fit n finish is not there and it does not scream luxury. In your opinion, have you detected anything through either picture or a journalist's remark (someone who has experienced it in person) that would suggest that this new Lincoln will not have quality materials, fit or finish? What I see, is continuous improvement in a brand that is delivering on product, but is a step or two behind in perception. I bet this Continental will immensely help on the latter. Hey Guest, How about sign up and make an account with us?? Officially become a member of the great community here at CnG! Good group of guys here. Do we really another Ford employee? Lol Damn quick fingers. That should have read "Do we really NEED another Ford employee?"

    You are dodging the "issue" here. If you are going to criticize Cadillac for their dimensions in one segment then you have to do the same with MB. How do you have two CUVs that are ten inches apart in length yet they are both called "compacts", using your "logic"? Do you see it yet or do you want to continue with the phantom issue?

    The Buick is midsize. Nice trolling though. It is????? Buick Envision length 183.7 inches long Chevrolet Cruze 183.7 in Cadillac ATS 183.6 in BMW X3 183.8 in I always thought those were in the small segment. The Buick is midsize. Nice trolling though. It is????? Buick Envision length 183.7 inches long Chevrolet Cruze 183.7 in Cadillac ATS 183.6 in BMW X3 183.8 in I always thought those were in the small segment. That is what it is called. Take it up with GM and just stop the stupid trolling nonsense. For reference though, the GLA is a luxury compact and is ten inches shorter than the Envision. The GLK is also called a compact that is five inches shorter than the Envision. You see where I'm going yet or do you want to continue with your phantom issues?

    Is there a third choice because both are unreliable and one is just downright hideous (looking at you Alfa)?
  6. surreal1272
    Mercedes certainly is not immune to the same exact failures but people keep buying them too. Something Barnum said comes to mind here.

    Your second paragraph is unrelated to the issue at hand. Those are regulated entirely different from passenger cars and for good reasons. For you to even bring that up shows the genuine concern that MB has been playing some dirty German pool like VW. Your sad deflection is a dead giveaway.
  9. surreal1272
    Shall I show some things that Mercedes copied?I swear it seems like I've seen that somewhere before...oh yeah. Here it is. Oh and Lincoln has been using door mounted seat controls for a while.

    Hey! Better late than never!
  11. surreal1272
    Make excuses all you want but there is simply no excuse for pleather in a $50k+ Benz. No excuse. If this were offered by Cadillac, you would have a field day talking about GM bean counters and them being cheap.
  12. surreal1272
    No more boring than your average Mercedes with pleather seats.
  13. surreal1272
    . Thou cannot also not call a car luxury when leather isn't even standard. Funny how you dodge those little facts that show how gullible most Mercedes buyers are.
  14. surreal1272
    Hahahahaha Yeah except it isn't competing with a sport sedan. Of course nothing American has great interiors because they aren't German. *sarcasm* What's funny is for $7000 you get 2hp, fake leather(MB Tex bull$h!), no keyless ignition like the Lincoln comes with, No heated seats like the Lincoln comes with, No rear view Camera like the Lincoln comes with, 17 inch wheels(Lincoln comes with 18's) Yeah, what a bargain the E Class is. Exactly! What really grinds my gears is the fake leather in a car that STARTS at FIFTY THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS. That's just insane and complete bull$h!. BMW and Mercedes are both extremely guilty of this practice but it is the one thing you won't hear their fans try to defend because it is indefensible.

    What it shares its bones with is irrelevant. Don't know why you want to beat a dead horse when Mercedes is going to the same thing with their new Nissan Pick..., I mean pick up.Oh and that E Class starts at $7k higher and quickly shoots to a price that goes far beyond a top tier Continental.
  17. surreal1272
    . See. There's the problem. You think it's of a case of a small car getting premium styling when there is A. Nothing premium about a $30K Mercedes And B. It's a case of the newer $175k S Class coupe using the same nose as a $30k Mercedes. I understand family unity and all but a car in this price range can afford to look more distinguished than that.
  18. surreal1272
    Not exactly helping your argument ccap. The Camaro and Mustang are direct competitors and the Mustang was referenced in that article. Just saying.
  19. surreal1272
    So because one is not a potential buyer of a Benz, they don't get to have a opinion on how their $175k car looks just like their $30k car? That's news to me.
  20. surreal1272
    Yet you say nothing about another posters constant mentions of Mercedes even though this is NOT Mercedes either.
  21. surreal1272
    Yeah, it sucks when companies like GM and Benz do that.
  22. surreal1272
    No they are not (unless you were being funny there). CLA: S Class Coupe Let's take a look at this knucklehead claim : Now; my claim that MB just recycles the same nose : You cannot tell them apart without seeing the side/ reading the rear. It's WEAK. Bless his heart. He tried Balt but it is clear as day. The Camaro and Sonic don't share anything up front. Not even close when compare to the CLA vs. the S Class Coupe.
  23. surreal1272
    Maybe Chevy should put the Spark's nose on the next generation Corvette.They put the Camaro's nose on the Sonic. I actually don't love the S-class coupe grill, I think the sedan grille is better. I'd like to see the Maybach S600 front on the coupe and convertible. You might want to put that pipe down because clearly they look NOTHING alike. Just sounds like you hate a dose of the truth. That CLA nose does not belong on a $175K+ S-Class ANYTHING. If this were about Cadillac, you would be having a field day with that fact.
  24. surreal1272
    Some things are just beyond words. This was on the Phoenix Craigslist site today.
  25. surreal1272
    And if GM scrubbed to your stealing sales suggestion, then their other brands would be struggling and you'd be speaking negatively of that.
