A derivative of the MKS, also for Lincoln, will go into production later in 2008 or in 2009. The production site for the derivative also is likely to be Chicago, although Ford didn't confirm the final assembly location, suppliers said. Volume is forecast at 15,000 units annually, they said.

Very interestin news. If the E386 is D size, it won't be much larger than the MKS (codenamed D385). This is supposed to be the new flagship placed above the MKS, and IMO, should be about the size of the Town Car... especially since the S, 7,LS, and A8 have grown in size with there current gens. I guess we'll just have to wait to see what happens.
