You might be onto something there blood, what if it was too wasteful of euros to scrap all the work done on the Bluesport so they "Frankensteined" it into the design? I think the headlights look like a cross between Nissan and MR2. IMO, the original fried eggs were weak, especially the cheese corner piece that always allowed moisture in during a wash. The current units are too busy, LED sprinkled in as if to say, us too. And the Spoiler going into the tail lights is ugly Benz-eske rip.
