Why did I see that first pic and instantly think "ugh, a Toyota Avensis"???

 

My opinion...

 

Front: Toyota Avensis.... Says it all... :lol:

Side view: Civic Type R :?

Dash: grey plastic with lighter grey plastic and silver/aly highlights/details... :pukeright:

Engine: yes, it is, but it's got so many covers you wouldn't know it... :roll:

Rear: pregnanat Leon :?

Clocks: nice... Gotta give them that, I like the clocks... :lol:

 

I quite like the wheels and REALLY like the brembo (well, I'm guessing, but that what they look like) calipers, but to my eyes, it looks like the ba$tard offspring of a new ALFA 147 GTA, Toyota Avensis and Civic Type R, with a hint of Seat Leon... Guess I still like the slight angular look of the C and MKI GTI too much... :lol: 8)

I suppose it's only a matter of time before all cars will look fairly similar to other cars. There's only so many different shapes for what is essentially a box on 4 wheels.

 

Personally I prefer the individualistic "classic" shapes - VW Corrado (of course), AC Cobra, Ferrari 308GTB, Lamborghini Miura, Porsche 911, Fiat X19, Honda Civic targa top, etc, etc

I like that the engine is a turbocharged FSI engine!

 

I guess being partnered with companies like Audi has benefits :)

 

Not bad though.. I really like the design of it, and interior + dials look ace!! :)

im sure as far as performance goes its top class..... but

 

i hate car companies that change really nice cars into futuristic looking things... give me a beast looking car that is as boxy and as aerodynamic as a brick anyday, petrol will be more consuming but hey, i can live with that.

 

prime example of amazing looking car into horrible curvy aerodynamic badness.........SUBARU Impreza
