Its a good platform. Not nearly as agile as the Zeta platform, not nearly as sophisticated as Sigma, and not nearly as light as the old DEW Lincoln LS platform was, but a good platform.
Zeta is also a ton more flexible to offer more wheel bases as well as other vehicles off such a platform.
Zeta and Zeta 2 underpin 2 wheel base sedans, wagon model, a truck, and now a coupe. They are built for RHD and LHD, and can swallow anything from an Ecotec to a Gen IV, to an LS7 to an LS9. They are also designed for, soemthing Chrysler had to redo, a manual transmission.
And it was a hell of a lot cheaper then LX was. A LOT.
