The first tS was such a good example.

I think all the R&D done with the first gen will serve as base for the second gen car. There is not much more to research as the platform is essentially the same.

I can't believe folks really hate the new rear end. I think it looks good but safe like how Porsche plays it safe unless its one of their GT or hypercars.

I like it. The people that claim it looks like a Buick are focusing on the details too much and are ignoring the proportions. I’m betting it looks great in real life.

It’s not growing on me. I’ll keep my 16. More torque would be nice but my 16 is paid for so that little bit of torque for thousands is not worth it honestly.

Now that I've gotten used to the new design, the only thing from the first gen I'll really miss is the front fender bumps from the side view.

Out of curiosity, is the new version already for sale in Japan? Sure seems to be a lot of them on the street based on pics, or is it just the same cars over and over again?

They all have the badges covered up, so they must be test cars. |

That's likely a consequence of the manufacturers choosing to go with what is really a conservative design that has few unique aspects. Being somewhat generic it reminds one of design elements common to other cars of its type.
