Looks like a Bentley to me...
To: RoosterRedux
The Cadillac Catera was a rebadged Opel and not just a massive flop but a laughingstock, the ads were unintentionally hilarious featuring a rubber duckie. That did not begin Cadillac’s renaissance at all. What began it was the Art & Science styling with more of a sharp edged look and a strong concentration on the grille and Cadillac crest area.
This new Continental does not resemble the Rolls, it resembles a Bentley and the two are not all that similar anymore, being owned by different companies now.
That said, this new Continental looks quite nice. I’m a little disappointed that they went sort of derivative of an outside marque rather than relying upon their own impressive history as far as styling influences though.

Yep. I would trade out the wheels for something a little less loud.

I saw a silver one yesterday! Couldn’t figure out what it was. Very nice machine!

It’s a Continental - put in rear-hinged doors to be ultra cool.

It’s awful hard to justify buying a Lincoln when you could have a comparably equipped Ford Fusion for $15,000 less.
I’m glad to see the folks are Lincoln are returning to their senses.
If they would only return to a RWD sedan like the Town Car was - they would clean up.

They need to bring back the early 60’s suicide doors.

Wishing all the good luck in the world to Continental.
FoMoCo is a solid company, an iconic American firm, with terrific R&D. Hope they do great.
The wheels on the model pictured MUST be swapped to understated brushed aluminum, though!

The wheels look quite nice in person, rollin’ down the road.

Yep. Here's the Rolls. Way over the top for my taste.

400hp V-6? Guess what a 400hp V-6 sounds like? A V-6.

And a fake spare hump in the trunk lid.
