Say WHA..?! Reply #7 – October 10, 2005, 01:59:55 PM That's why I posted this, Jim! :) From a real-world POV it makes much more sense for Mercury to have a coupe before Lincoln.Also keep in mind that we're but a few months away from the Detroit Auto Show. Hidden within that article is more subtext...will we see a Mustang-based prototype at that show? Did Ford already give the go-ahead to Lincoln and not Mercury? Or are both on hold? We'll know something in the next few months, anyway. Quote Selected

Would probably take the Lincoln in a money-is-no-object hypothetical situation, though. Quote Selected
