Concept C! [View News Item]    (Score: 1, Normal) 06-06-2012 09:32

Definitely some close resemblance! The general sweep of the grille and fog light housing is very similar. I will say it looks a little strange right now, but I have pretty high hopes now. Wish they had gotten a rear shot, but this looks GOOD!

That front end is hideous. Does not fit in with the rest of the car. hopefully that is part of the disguise. The side looks better - glad they got rid of the goofy kink by the rear door handle like the ILX has.

Hood, bumper and grille all reminded me of the concept C right away.

Well at least the buggy headlights and weird handles are gone. We'll have to see the fully revealed bumper, but those sharp square lines ....

Oh yeah! Definitely see some less aggressive Concept "C" in there. Notice the lock button on the drivers door? Keyless access/Push-button start!

Oh, my . . . . This sure is going do a lot for Ford's 2013 Fusion sales.

What's a Dodge Avenger, is that like a movie or something?

Hopefully this is a Chinese bumper cover over what we will get in the USA. I am all for some styling changes, but one has to be careful not to shock the system.

Do you have some sort of focus feature on your computer? What "Keyless access button" I can hardly see the handle and I have a 22 inch screen........
