IMO the 86 rear is hideous, it looks bloated. The ND looks neat and tidy, like a metal skin pulled taut against the bones. I loved it the minute I saw it, great curves, great lines, an overall sense of agility.
As for the 124, boring from all angles. It looks like, well, an FCA product. Could have called it the Chrysler 100 and surprised nobody. At least it comes in a nice bright blue, though, the ND has had two different muted shades of blue that don't appeal to me. Makes up for it with Soul Red I guess.
