Identify this Lincoln
Spotted this on the way home from work the other night. Manufacturer's plates, can't quite make out the letter after the MK. I thought it was MK7 but I can't quite tell if it's a 7 or not. Any ideas?
EDIT: Just figured out it's a new Lincoln MKT. Thought it was a pre-production model but I guess it's available now, so I'm assuming it was a Lincoln employee driving it. Oh well, thought I caught something special on camera lol.

They need to re-do that rear end. Start by scrapping the taillight assembly. It looks like the pulled it off of a late 90's Mark VIII. :thumbsdow

Ford needs some serious help with their luxury brand. It's a unique design, but that's where it ends. It's like their material and build quality suffers probably due to pricy labor, but design is something that can't be excused. There has to be hundreds of young, trendy and qualified designers and engineers that can put together something more along the lines of Cadillac, Mercedes, Lexus etc...

Considering everything they make is based on a current Ford, they'll need styling help and fit/finish help. The first is obvious. The second, well, they have to buy out a lot of the older workers and get the union to come to the table.
Plus, take the "cash reserves" they boast, and buy better plastics and trim pieces. hell, have their top engineers sit inside an Audi. I mean, if they are going to price their stuff at that level, try to field a competing product.
OP: I forgot to identify the Lincoln. My guess =

I sat in this at the Cleveland Auto Show. The interior is great! The rear looks like ass, however.
