lol.. wasn't my pick up. i remember when the pics first circulated of the evo x. the first criticisms back then was how much the rear looks like a alfa romeo. the second was how the front looks like the volvo.
i still love them though. they have a very masculine look. and because they don't have that all out "sleekness" from the get go, i think they will age better. unlike cars like the rx8, mazda 6 etc.
quite an interesting summation..! I do agree, that cars with a 'big, unique presence', such as the RX8, tend to look old very quickly...
Same can be said for 'out-there' colours on cars, especially those Ford Falcon colours; e.g. baby puke green... that will become tired very soon.... (if not already ! :lol
