New 3 = astra meets CX-7, the love child you never saw coming.
it does look better than the current 3 though. atm they make me think of a chubby baby for some weird reason

Looks to be a mix of Maz 6 hatch, Astra, Hyundai i30 & BMW 1 series... Looks ok, but i'd rather a Mazda 6 in comparison...

haha yer the 3 has put on sum baby fat. i love that whole chunky look.
haha and i do love that new bmw. The design is not like a traditional 4wd. Thats kinda like who the dodge calibre is designed to be a hatch but looks like a 4wd. I loved the series one rx-8 but yer i not much of a fan of the new model. It hasnt evolved enough and i dont particularly like any of the exterior changes they have made from the series 1. If i was buyin one i would def got 4 a series 1. They look hot in blue with a bodykit and sunroof. |

Looks like an astra / peugeot 307 / etc.
Kinda disappointing that the styles are merging more. And the Hyundai i30 looks suspiciously like a Subaru Impreza from certain angles. |

Looks like another bit of plastic puss to me.
YES PLASTIC PUSS. Just wait til lthe pistons are plastic. rest of the motor almost is. Ah X6- Are you feeling alright. it's not a SUV or even cross over. The owners would get scared it would scratch something climbing over a meadian strip. THe painted type. I still hate the over advertised flying wing badge up front. |
