Saw it.

Car looks nice. But I thought the previous gen. RL looked nice and it didn't sell for shit.

Hopefully, things will change.

_300 hp 3.5 liter V6
_AWD with torque fully transferable between front/rear and left/right wheels
_20" wheels
_slotted rotors w/ 4 piston calipers.
_Also looks like it has something similar to BMW's iDrive

That's all I remember

I think as long as this awd system has zero torque steer under all conditions, it should perform and sell well.
