This morning, we dusted off the confetti from yesterday’s celebrations and found a photo treasure trove of the Lincoln MKR Concept we brought you a few days ago. Keep reading for more photos, and make sure not to miss the tire complete with Lincoln emblem right in the tread. That’s what concept cars are all about.

New Years Concept Car Unveilings

At the stroke of midnight on December 31st — that’s between Saturday and Sunday — we’ll be bringing you word on one of the most anticipated concepts to debut at this year’s Detroit auto show. Then on New Year’s Eve proper at midnight — when the ball drops and you’re busy partying — we’ll be bringing you word on yet another stylish concept car. If that’s not enough for you, the next day at 12:01 a.m. on January 2nd we’ll have one more new car — a production car this time — for you all to see.

There’s nothing like new sheet metal to ring in 2007.

Update: Check out the first of the concepts, the Ford Interceptor.

Revised Ford Focus to Debut in Detroit

Ford needs a serious player in the small-car market. What it has now is the long-in-the-tooth Focus, which still sells well despite the company losing money on every sale due to costs.

We’ve just learned that at this year’s Detroit auto show, the company will unveil a new version of the current Focus. Rumor has it that besides the standard four-door Focus sedan, there might also be a coupe version. Both will borrow the razor-like grille treatment of the popular Fusion sedan and Edge crossover. There hasn’t been a Focus coupe since the nameplate debuted in 1999, only a two-door hatchback.

We don’t see a revised Focus helping Ford gain ground in the competitive compact market, but the automaker had to do something while it developed a successor. We just hope that Ford is indeed working on that successor and that the car it reveals in Detroit is better than we’re imagining.
