I like it a lot, it's good to see that other countries can compete in terms of design, i hope that the final quality of the product matches the competition, it would be a killer to have a nice looking car for half the price of the competition...

that's because hyundai has started hiring foreign designers. even its sister company, kia, is starting to produce decent designs (of course it helps if your chief designer used to work for vw/audi). nothing against the koreans, but i don't think they knew enough of the worldwide market to come up with designs that have universal appeal.

Why the latest Hyundai designs look like they are melting? I can see some hyperactive dealers with ads like "Our cars are so hot that they are melting themselves, but they won't melt your pockets because only at Crazy Al's you can get the best offers and the biggest discounts for melting cars, and that's because I'm craaaazzy"

But A, did Mazda build a car with a Grille that looks like this. The answer=Hell No. This car will get a regular Hyundai Hexagon, and a more realisitic A Pillar.

maserati rear lights. i'll prefer cleaner lines. they just packed every design curves on this car. looks too complicated, too much. what about 6 wheels, 18 lights, 2 bonnets, etc.
