Given that grill and the massive radiator that must be behind it, that sedan must have at least 900 hp.

It is fine so far...

LFA front looks terrible.
Love my 17' 86 front thought. Seems to be hit or miss on the forums concerning that.

Glad I'm not the only one. It might be a little too much, but the FR-S and BRZ look too tame to me now. I give them credit for not being satisfied with "OK."

I mean, just look at the front ends:

You cannot tell me that isn't intentional lol.

I've always felt like if an LFA and a Supra had a baby,it would be the FR-S...looks-wise of course.

I think the LFA looks better in person than photos, and white is not it's best color. Frankly I find very few sports cars that look their best in white, but that may just be me.

My buddy just bought one, and it's stunning.

Yep. They always seem to take picture of cars from an angle that you would only see if you were about 3 feet tall. Very few people see cars from that perspective.

I think this is more common with modern car designs. Modern cars usually have intricate lines that are better appreciated in person, especially from lots of different angles.

The new Camaro however is NOT one of those cars. It looks terrible even in real life :barf:

This suffers from the same issues that make me dislike the new 86 front end. There are so many conflicting angles compared to the body lines that the eye just doesn't know which direction to head in. They both look like something just grafted on the front without any consideration given to the whole picture.

I agree. I don't mind the front end of the new kouki 86 by itself, but it just doesn't flow with the rest of the body so it makes the whole car look off.

IMO, The new Camaro looks much better when that black bar is body-colored rather than black, and the bowtie badge is moved up:
