I HATE the fact the neutered the styling.

After seeing all the concepts for so long...

To see the final version so neutered was hard to stomach for me. Actually if I stare at those pictures and then look at the production model it's almost painful.

The people who have never see the car before usually like it because it's edgy TODAY. And that's my problem with the styling, it was scaled back due to cost, but it was at the expense of the long term, appeal. I know it's all subjective.

It's these things the car nuts complain about.
True, but cars never turn out to be the same as their concepts. Now, if this car looked like that and cost 35k (with more power), then that's something else entirely!

The only disappointment for me in terms of styling is the interior. The show car's interior was phenomenal.
