Wow, that is pretty terrible. I don't see why anyone would buy it.

WTF!

The last model year is a fantastic looking car, and I'd buy it if it weren't a Toyota. That... Thats just not right looking.

According to Lexus, you'll be the proud owner of 35 city, 33 highway
I thought this car would get better mileage.

The Aztek may not have been pretty, but all the parts looked liked they fit. This thing lokks like some gave their two year a bottle of crazy glue and let them loose in the Toyota parts bin.

My point is that there are people out there that will buy the ugliest of cars. That thing is pretty damned disgusting, though.

Oddly, Park is a button next to the shifter – if you don't use the button, the car will remain in neutral when you get out. As the gentleman from Lexus University explained, "If you don't press the button, the car's going to leave."
Who the hell came up with that idea?

There will be reviews and Toyota fanboys alike who will praise the brilliance of this, no doubt.

Well, it's certainly a great way to help out the collision industry.

It will sell. All of the people who view their hybrids as some sort of status symbol now have an even fancier one to buy.

Perfect opportunity for Ford to throw the Fusion hybrid setup in a MKZ or MKS and have the highest mileage luxury car on the market.

I forgot about Lincoln. I just went to their website and that MKS looks like a damn nice car. The MKZ is not bad either.
