The ridiculously large side air intakes are a fatal flaw for me.

Not that I'll be buying one right away (so I'm certainly not their target demographic), but I swear I see a little more than a hint of Mitsubishi Eclipse in there - especially the rear quarter view. That lip spoiler needs to go.

Me too. Overall this version looks excessively "busy" compared to the clean designs up to now. There are lines going everywhere ... side strakes; corner light; side marker now turns up; new line on rear of rear fender, strake line runs through the door handle (?), even the headlights look "busy." At least this may end up improving our resale values, though.
