...about the exterior, what would it be?

For me, it'd be on the rear. I'm not liking the overall look of the butt since it looks too bulky. The bumper looks WAY too big IMO. Also the rear lights, not liking how they are shaped but can't really do much about that.

Honestly, I love the way it looks stock, only thing I can think of is to put on a rear diffuser similar to the CS and GT500 like the one we saw in the photos of the GB seen here.

If I could mod only one thing it would be the tail lights. Getting the car in black would hide all the black trim.

One thing? The ENTIRE rear end of the car. Okay, so that's more than just one thing, but it needs to be done. If you forced me to pick just one thing though, I'd have to say the lower bumper cover has to go in favor of something more pleasing to the eyes.

The tail lights would be much better just without that little angle near the inside:

Nothing.

Regardless of how it looks, I'm not a fan of mods. Bone stock all the way, baby.

The black plastic cladding. I'd like to see it body color or less of it in the rear bumper. Maybe someone here could photoshop that?

i am a fan of the black pastic, the chops i have seen of the body colored plastic make it look too thick. but we are all judging this thing right now from pictures, seeing it in person my change all of our views so i will wait. as is though i like it.

I agree with you X 1000 on that little kink on the bottom of the taillights to me it's just an eye sore,

but verything else is fine by me and I really like that rear diffuser.

The ugly taillights and the Prius diffuser. I can't believe they found it to be an improvement.

Just for Speculation. I Like the 2010 As Is, but for those complaining about the tail lights and diffuser here's my Photoshop.

I like the stock better, the photoshopped version makes the rear bumper cover look way too big.

Im pretty sure roush or someone will make something different for the diffuser, but those tailights kill me, it looks like the body lines are the same as the 05-09 so conversions may be possible... Big Blue really messed up and it looks like they just wants to go bankrupt
