Fugly Headlights
Anyone else bothered by the test mule headlights? They don't seem to fit the car at all and remind me of these:
  They look so out of place with the rest of the FT-86 body and really kill it for me. Hoping they are not final or worst case, Subaru's variant ends up with a better looking front. |

I'm hoping it's just because the mule is covering up the nice sleek lines of the prototype.

I was hoping the headlights would be more similar to this:
 Just kidding, i personally dont mind the headlights too much, i'm just hoping that when the production model is released they are a bit more sleek |

Nope, I really don't think they look bad. The little bit of camo still on them tends to throw off the shape a bit, but they don't bother me at all.

i must say, i don't like the headlights on the mule either. the headlights of any of the three concepts look much better imo. cappucino headlights only look good on a cappucino lol.

headlights are based off the LF-A so they're ok in my book...

I'm sure it'll grow on you over time but don't be suprised if it looks different on the final production. :happy0180:

I'm kind of sad they did away with the daytime running lights. The housing was darker and more aggressive.

Meh, daytime running lights just add cost. There's a reason automakers objected when they passed laws regulating the brightness of daytime running lights, adding the extra set of low intensity lights costs money!

yeah the headlights remind me of a family car... way too soft and round
if these are the final version then the car loses so much wow factor |
