The 2009 Lincoln MKS will make its official debut at the LA Auto Show in mid-November, but this luxury sedan-turned-Hollywood actor has already been spotted on the set of the new Batman movie in Chicago once before. A sharp-eyed reader, however, has caught the car in the middle of filming again, whether for the movie or for a commercial we don't know, and has graciously shared his snaps with us.

A bit clearer than the last on-set images of the MKS we showed you, these pics reveal in clear detail Lincoln's new big sedan. The design appears extremely clean and sharp. Up front is the split-wing grille that promises to soon become a familiar design cue across the entire Lincoln line. The side of the car is very smooth with an indent near the bottom that's highlighted with a chrome strip. Check out the size of the rear window opening, however, which seems pretty small to us. The rear end, meanwhile, has a look that will take us some time to get used to, but doesn't necessarily detract from what we see as a very slick overall design.

Thanks to Jason A. for the pics!
