...We need confirmation that there are no plastic cooling system parts. ...

That's a very unrealistic dream for any car from any brand today.

just came from the autoshow and the car looks awesome and the grill fits the car very well the pictures don't do it justice.

personally I love the lincoln emblem shaped holes in the grille and the headlight beams!

I went today as well. I agree, the grille is much much better in real life. It's more of a honeycomb than a perforated sheet (at least in appearance). The shape is much more appealing. It doesn't resemble the Taurus nearly as much, either.

And siht, those headlights. I want them.

The spokesperson said it's definitely going into production. I think she said late 2016 as a 2017 MY? Maybe those were only the Raptor production dates and the Conti is earlier in 2016?

That's a very unrealistic dream for any car from any brand today.

Then how about they use plastic suited to repeated pressure and heat cycles, with a self contained thermostat that doesn't depend upon strong spring pressure applied to plastic arms inside the housing. They can get the correct plastic formula from any other car manufacturer.
