Japanese are not very good inventors, but they are some of the best imitators. Side profile speaks volumes of G6.

Also, I hope they refine this "futuristic" desing a little bit before mass-releasing it. A bit overkill, IMO.

That ugly thing makes the current Evo actually look pretty.

wow. Mitsu really does want to go out of business. If I were the germans, I'd drop Mitsu too with that crap.

Re: Spy pic of '06 Neon platform mate

While the rest of the car looks good, that front...words for it are hard to find. So, I went to my thesaurus and found some like ugly, unsightly, loathsome, hideous, homely, repulsive, unseemly, uncomely, deformed, bad-looking, disfigured, monstrous, foul, horrid, frightful, revolting, repellent, unlovely, appalling, haglike, misshapen, misbegotten, hard-featured, grisly, unprepossessing, horse-faced, having a face that would stop a clock, looking a mess, looking a fright, looking like the devil or deuce, not fit to be seen, nasty, nauseous, nauseating, noisome, disagreeable, disgusting, odious, sorry, vile, dirty, filthy, sordid, messy, sickening, foul, pugnacious, quarrelsome, obnoxious, bellicose, rough, disagreeable, cantankerous, violent, abnormal, bizarre and queer. I mean really, are they serious I'm a guy that can look past a slightly unappealing car if it can perform, but this It looks like what you would find on the floor of a slaughter house. It looks like something a Picasso lover with dementia would create. I think I want to run and hide. I'm going to have nightmares tonight. And yet, some of you would still buy this over a Mustang, and that truly perplexes me more than anything

If they would've built the current SRT Neon in a 2-door, I'd have one. I don't do 4-doors......

That's what I was going to say. Other than the front, it actually looks well proportioned and fairly normal.
