The few that were at the LA show were not good looking. Except they had an orange one, the orange was ugly on it, but it has some nice 5-spoke silver painted 20s on it, and it looked alot better. Otherwise, I agree, it is not pretty.

I think the Edge looks better than any other Ford branded SUV...I haven't seen one in person yet though...

It's not something I would see myself in, but I'm sure it's a nice ride.

I really want to like it, because I want to see Ford recover...but based on the photos I've seen in magazines, I'm not feeling the styling.

Of course, most of the magazine reviews I've seen for it praise the styling, so maybe it is one of those vehicles that looks better in person (which I could sort of understand, given the odd shape).

I've only seen one in real life, and it was on a dealer lot as I drove past it; I didn't get close enough or see it long enough to get any feel for it at all.

Either way, I hope it does well for Ford. :)

I actually think it looks sharp! I saw one at the stealership yesterday, and was very impressed...

My, how clever you are.

What, because it is competing with the Murano, it is a Ford Murano??? You know, since they look nothing alike. Hey.............. I guess that means GM is coming out with the Chevroley Camry. :rolleyes:

I agree w/ it helping Ford. I don't like to see any domestic auto maker have a hard time. The Taurus is what brought Ford back in the early 80's, after the Mustang almost died.

I suppose it may be one you have to see in person to really appreciate. The comercial is catchy, tho. ;)... I'll give em that. I am not diggin the styling, tho. That front end is just a** ugly!

The Explorer really hasn't changed too much. I actually like that one. THink back to the Mid 90's and look at the explorer now. It's actually quite similar. It just has rounded edges. I've ridden in a couple of them and they are nice!

Ther front end looks like the 500.. The back end resembles the Chevy Equinox

Edge looks fine to me. Much better than the Mazda version

I think it looks ok, but someone needs to shoot the person that came up with the commercial for it. A 5 yr old could have come up with that commercial.

YEah, I think it might be the headlights that get to me.

Maybe its just that they chose the same color to use to showcase it.

I feel there is a good resemblance depending on the angle.

The lighting too. ^^

A little similar. The fornt ends on both are ugly. I think I like the headlights better on the nissan.

Well of course, because every vehicle in a particular segment............... if they are the same color................. looks the same. :rolleyes:

Resemblance??? Oh, you mean that they are both in the same catagory?? Ummmmm..................... duh???

I'm sure that a Subaru Outback resembles an SUV at certain angles also. Yet, it is still really just a lifted station wagon.

PS, I have no problem with people not liking something for some actual, real reason. Its color, or the fact that it is a Ford (when you are a GM person), or that you don't really like the styling (which has to be the most subjective of all catagories)............. is a copout. Drive the vehicle, and get up close and personal with it............. and then come back and give us a "good" reason why you don't like it. Then you have credibility.

I find they have a resemblance, more so depending on the angle. I agree its not the same but I could see the murano looking like that in its next redesign. ford beat them to it, just like the new grand vitara looks like an updated rav4.

By the way, I love this truck, had it been available when I was shopping I would have considered it.

I have always liked the looks of the Murano (just not the pricetag) and I like the looks of this new Edge for a crossover.

And yes...they do look a lot alike. At least GM had some originality with their new crossovers. ;-) ha ha
