New Mazdas

[Lownslow]

Blame International, the 2003-2008 7300/7400 is nicknamed the Cheshire cat for good reason, the silly truck is smiling. I've forgiven it because it does perform, but I prefer a more serious look on my trucks.

i had to look that up lol some of them dont have the look

This style?

This style?

Yep, that is the one.

[Chuck Most]

Or this...

I don't see it so much in the 2009+ like the last posted, it still has a bit of it, but not nearly as much. The earlier series that ran from 1991-2002 doesn't have that look at all.

Granted the IH is more of while that Mazda is one of these guys

If the Mazda3 is such a goofy face, then this:

is clearly a face.

Even I'd take the goofy face car.

Buick? Surely you jest.

I think it was Pep Boys

Someone noticed them missing from the 99 cent bargain blowout rack.

My, my, my.... SOMEBODY's done it! Infiniti has actually introduced the first car ever that looks like it's constipated!

Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off to FiatChrysler to pressure them into styling the next PT Cruiser to resemble a '61 Plymouth...

Ah yes, the car with the face that someone once described as 'the insect that ate Tokyo'.. I think all the current crop of automotive stylists (a broad description, given the sorry state of what now passes for 'styling') should be locked in a room with images of the Pierce Silver Arrow show car, the Cord 810/ 812, the '63 Riviera, '53 Starliner and, for good measure, an '88 Reatta. Pound it into their heads that some of us want cars that look like cars, not some nightmarte image of Japanese anime or this crease and fold nonsense that has become so prevalent. And please, lets lower the cowls on these things to a, give the vehicle some visual lenght and b, avoid the bunkermobile look.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that doesn't like the Mazda 3 styling...I really don't like the 'Creepy Grin".

Seems Peugeot has upped the ante with the 308 GTi...

DO you know how hard it is not to laugh in an open store when you really shouldn't be surfing the web

Ferraris of late also have a silly grin. No one seems to be complaining.

Ditto for the new McLaren road car. Haven't heard any complaints yet.
