I saw an announcement that there was also going to be the Cadillac Provoq concept.

That's at CES.

[Bimmer325]

The Lincoln concept will likely be the MKT, Lincoln's version of the Flex.

[Dsuupr]

I'm glad I'm not going. Nothing exciting enough for me to make the trip.

[ZL-1]

I believe the Provoq will be at NAIAS as well, and I think it is the BRX preview. At least it will preview the overall design theme for the BRX.

And I'm very happy to see a 9-4X concept listed too!

Yea most likely. Though there is some discussion that could just be the production version D472. Ford debuted the Flex way early. Maybe they will do the same with the Lincoln.

[thegriffon]

Ahh, you left out the Toyota what's it called? the yet another crossover (Mark X Zio twin?)

[Chris_Doane]

Oh right...um...I can think of the name either.....

[Chris_Doane]

Ahh, you left out the Toyota what's it called? the yet another crossover (Mark X Zio twin?)

Ah! It's the Venza.

Boy oh boy...does it have an ugly front end.

[The O.C.]

I'll be there the first weekend......

weather.com says highs in the LOW 20's.....and lows in the high-teens......

BRRRRRRRR

[Paolino]

The Lincoln concept will likely be the MKT, Lincoln's version of the Flex.

Am I the only one to think that it is so unnecessary?

[Drew Dowdell]

Am I the only one to think that it is so unnecessary?

it'll probably sell well though because it's alone in it's segment.

Impala and Riviera?!? Excellent...

[Z-06]

Impala Production? Do you think they made a FWD POS this F*ing fast after plans to give up on it?

Or may be they are going to add a 6 speed transmission and do some minor touch ups for this one.

[Chris_Doane]

No, no, no.....just that stupid 50th anniversary ed. Impala.

The Riviera concept is the one already shown in China.

[AAS]

No, no, no.....just that stupid 50th anniversary ed. Impala.

Read about it on C&D a couple of weeks ago. Base V-6 model with special decals and less boaty suspension.

[jcgable]

Less interesting than last year methinks...

[Dsuupr]

Just not enough worth flying cross country for.

[regfootball]

weren't they supposed to be putting the 6 speed in the impala some time soon?

[!!!TED!!!]

This show is turning out to be all about ugly crossovers and trucks.

WHERE ARE THE CARS!?

Autoblog is saying that a CTS coupe may be shown today.

Also, isnt there a plan to show the refreshed Mustang?

The CTS coupe concept is supposed to be released today. I also saw something about a Pontiac release which will end up being the production version of the G8.
