It looks like a cross between a Focus and a Corolla.

Focus + Corolla + Sonata (circa 2013). 

Not sure if it's the angle but that looks like one massive face for a small car.

The leather dash is quirky and on the third glance I think I like it. The exterior is not offensive in any way which is good in this category.  :thumbup:

I think it looks much better than the current Cruze - but, like the Malibu I saw at Yorkdale yesterday, I really don't like Chevy's new corporate face.  It just seems...off.

And fire the designers of the Aztec.  Somehow I get the feeling they have them still around in the Chevy division.

The designers from Buick are largely Chinese designers...are they not?

The current Regal started as the Opel Insignia in 2008. To make it a Buick for the Chinese and North American markets, they changed the grill and badges.



Originally it was going to be a Saturn Aura, but that died with the brand.

Sad but true, with the exception of the Beetle, Mini and my 300, it's pretty tough to tell one model from another if you're squinting or wearing beer goggles (on foot of course) ;)

The guy who designed the Aztec did the latest Corvette...
