I was in New York for a while.
New York City is a very different city especially if you talk about cars.
Most of cars you see there are taxi cabs or Limousine…. Lincoln Towncar has been dominated the limo market for many years, but as you know, they have been discontinued and limousine companies have to find something to replace those.
As I noticed, quite a few Lincoln MKT short version were in the city and I also saw some stretched limousines.
Well….this design….. at least it is way better than Cadillac Escalade… but still a bit boring as a flagship vehicle….
This is how I did. I was always thinking MKT was looking a bit classical like late 1930s, so I modified like sedan at that time. Actually all I did was stretched rear and moved rear wheel to adjust the balance.
Actually, I guess it is the perfect shape for taxi cab!!
Also it looks reasonably good in the landscape of American city!
MKT is a type of Cross-over…. which means it is between SUV and Station Wagon. But as a result, it is classical looking too. This could be another way especially luxury cars to go.
