I`m sure its a great car, but I just really love the tailfins and boats of yesteryear. I would rather have this new CTS than the BMW`s and such for sure.
Problem is, the "boats" of yesterday (my mom still has her '87 Lincoln Town Car) won't sell to a public whose perception of luxury has changed...just look at what has happened to Lincoln now. Lincoln, and it's higher sub division Continental, Caddy, Mercedes and Rolls used to define the luxury dept.
Continental used to be right up there with Rolls and Bentley, and was just well put together, if not better. BMW was fighting it out with Alfa at one time...
Now, due to multiple reasons Lincoln was run into the ground.
