I like the v6 frontend waaay better, but agree that I just don't care for the butt. Otherwise, I'm sold on the whole car for 2011

I Spotted the Projectors Right Off the Bat! No Pic's of them on a GT though.

Just need to put some fogs in the black holes in the lower corners of the bumpers and I'm sold on the V6 frontend.

I agree! The V6 looks cleaner and more cohesive to me - look how the lower grille is all one piece where the GT still has the openings in the middle (yeah I know Marcello @ SHR can take care of that

). Also notice the difference in location of the amber turn signals - GT on the inside, V6 on the outside.

The V6 front pictures above looks good because when I look at it it really reminds me of the current GT500. Even with a chin spoiler. It definitely looks better. Who'd have thought it.

The v6 looks like the GT's crosseyed cousin.

Yeah, I'm not feeling the outboard turn signals with the projectors. Could they not have just suck HIDs in the same socket as the regular headlamps?

The problem I have with the V6 front end is the lower hole where the fogs will go. Its outer edges flair, making it a trapezoid, and the line going contrary to the rest of the front end lines is jarring. Had they pulled it in parallel to the bumper curve, making it a parallelogram, I think it would have flowed better and would probably prefer it to the GT.

But just that one line tips the balance, for me, in favor of the GT as the GT appears better balanced and more symmetrical. Its lines all flow consistently.
