Lincoln is on a roll with the Navigator, Aviator and Nautilus (which looks good too). I wonder if there's time to do a reboot on the Continental using some of this interior and exterior styling language?

Ok, let's hold on here. We should see how these new SUV's sell before we determine that the Continental needs to be refreshed which really is the subject of another thread is it not?

Storage in the center stack for more important stuff. Also storage behind the center stack.
