The new car’s interior has a lot of aluminum and very little wood. It’s very disappointing.

It handles a little better than our cars, but the performance isn’t all that much better, really. And the new gearbox is problematic at best.

Finally, should you desire to run the car in the BBORR, the car has a *nasty* tendency to lift off the ground over 130mph. Yup, they screwed up the aero.

Sadness. They fixed the frame flexing and blew the aerodynamics. Time to go back to school, guys.

I'll have to keep my ought-three until they figure it out. I hope it doesn't take them too long.

Mrs. NCSteve is drooling over the S-Type, even though I keep telling her it is really just a Lincoln LS. Proof positive that marketing works!
