Wow. That front bumper is an absolute disaster. There is so much going on relative to the rest of the design elements elsewhere on the car. Horrible.

And those grilles... yikes.

Looks a lot like a Mustang in some of those colors, especially the blue.

I like the overall look but still not used to those grilles. Have a feeling it will look a lot better in person.

So... I hated the Concept 4 but this doesn't look awful to me...

It's growing on me.

That grill is still appalling. Kills the M3/4 lineage.

I still can't get past the new kidney grill design. Ugh.

Vertical slat/honeycomb/star mesh grills are far superior to the horizontal slats...it's like if you're fat, you don't wear a horizontal striped shirt!

Anyway, it's shaping up to look better than we all cried about before.

I am really starting to like it. My only concern is that the sensor for the ACC is messing up the gril completely. That looks completely out of wack and destroys the entire look!

Same here... I actually like the vertical slats over the horizontal. I think the mesh could work too but this front end still looks aggressive but not terribly busy.

Wtf this has like 1000 lines and creases and intakes in the front end. Doesn't even look aggressive and looks like a dated body kit. Looks like a crumpled up piece of paper. WAY too busy and I prefer the other interpretation. Sorry for the bluntness because the quality of the renderings is always good, but dayum.

Looks like the designer of the Civic Type R was involved in this. Not a fan. Really wishing I kept my F80 now.

Normally isn't a preview a preview of something official, these are just renders imagined by someone of the camouflaged prototypes..

Kind of reminds me of a mustang...

Except rather than injure people when crashing into crowds, it just sucks them up through the gigantic grilles.

There is no doubt that those responsible for the grill will be fired however it remains questionable whether they will be charged with any crimes.

That grill just looks plain bad. Too many cuts and slats on the front end.

I was planning on holding onto my F80 anyways.
