Front end is bad azz.

Where the design falls down, IMHO, is in profile view. Look at the door to greenhouse relationship. It is stuck in the '80s...almost half & half. Today, cars are going closer to 70% door, 30% greenhouse.

The backend is '80s, too.

The interior is definitely better than what we produce here, though. Center stack and front passenger dash look good.

Gotta agree 100% there. Front is amazing, the rest is kind of a let down. The Holden has the same problem, front looks pretty mean but the rest looks like a really big Mitsubishi.

With Warpaint the FPV's front is just pornographic, they did a really good job witht that one.

Yeah, but better like Daniel Craig is a better actor than Peirce Brosnan: an improvement but still not Connery

I think that's more a difference of material rather than acting skill... see Seraphim Falls


Still like the Falcon and won't mind their Turbo I-6 landing here... 300 cubic inches w/
279 kW (362 hp) @ 5250 RPM; 533 Nm (393 lb-ft) @ 2000 - 4750 RPM
