Bob the incredibly ugly-proportioned whale?
I think it's a new Monte Carlo based on the G8 platform.

Get used to it, they are all going to look like this in three years.

Nope, I am surprised you are going American.

Stock hit so low you had to sell your initials to cover? 
Lincoln MKS?
looks like a Buick.
I think it's one of the Chinese cars.
Because they've blatantly ripped off both Buick, and the "Japanese Buick" Toyota. Even a little Hyundai in there.
Camry?
Is Toyota buying Buick from GM? Looks like a lexus/buick
gotta be chinese. i see both buick and lincoln in the grille, toyota in the headlights, buick in the side view, saturn in the taillights, and maybe some more lincoln in the exhausts.
not horrible, just horribly generic.
get your kids in chinese classes now. maybe they'll be interpreters instead of slaves.
New Chinese Buick.

I actually like it quite a bit, for what it is.
Coming from Mr. Brown it's probably a Passat. 
I am REALLY digging the new lines of cars from MANY manufacturers, I really like the shape of this car. My question is why couldn't they get this designed in Michigan?
The grill and tail lights say Lincoln to me.
If you look at the link Vetters posted you will see a big badge in the middle de-Lincoling the grille.
buck teeth mcgurk?

Nice try at throwing us off the trail, JB.
Really?
I understand that it does not handle like a Miata or an E30 but that it outruns an Astro Van and a P71 I say that it fits right in the berkeleying middle of this crowd.
I guess it is a lot easier to be a car design critic than a car designer, but that to me looks like something thrown together trying to incorporate many design elements from all sorts of cars that it looks like something from some JV level design class project not something that any company has spent millions on.
The grill was the Buick tell for me, but I thought is was going to be the all new Buick Blah not the Lacrosse.
