That Prius C looks pretty good. But the pic Tcoat posted looks better. No, not the pic OF Tcoat, the pic POSTED by Tcoat.

Toyota is definitely using some design curs from the FRS throughout the line, but can you blame them?

Ehh... the FR-S influence was far more apparent on the tC, for obvious reasons of course. There isn't as much of an influence on the Prius C.

I will concede that there are slight design cues from the FR-S, but not enough to make them very similar.

Every car just has to look angry these days. Even your vans and econoboxes look like theyve woke up on the wrong side of the bed

I wonder if automotive design will ever be tame again. I guess aerodynamics plays a big part in cars looking pissed off?

The Honda Fit doesn't really look angry to be honest.

To be honest, after having seen those cars side by side, I'm really starting to see that FR-S influence much more clearly now.

I understand that each company will follow a certain design language to distinguish its brand from others, but I think I'm just tired of seeing cars so angry all the time.

Some sort of throwback, like what Nissan did with the Figaro, would certainly be a breath of fresh air. But for now, I think the closet thing we've got is:



I'd definitely like it if Toyota went with full circular headlights for the SF-R rather than a face looking like it wants to run you off the road
