    I don't know why, but I like this one. Maybe it's the shade of Blue.

    Not too shabby... The tall n' skinny rear wing isn't as bad on the cars as I feared it might be. With the exception of the Renault machine, they don't look too bad.

    I like the colour and the simple design.

    It seems Williams also found the same loophole as Ferrari with the vertical winglets just in front of the sidepods, except there aren't even mirrors on them.

    Car looks good, much better than the Renault. That color blue is very nice too.

    Very nice looking car, has a minimalist approach to it. I hope it serves Nico well this year.

    I think the colour is desceptive and that this car is just as ugly/beautiful as the rest. For example the nose is very wide, almost as wide as the Renault's.

    I like the solid midnight blue. Williams was long overdue for a change to the livery.

    Let's face it--those new rear wings are horrible. They should have just removed them all together.

    The disproportionate rear/front wings make it look like a slot car.

    Color combo is nice. I guess Williams doesn't want to be too flashy if their car will continue running in the midfield.

    Can't say I like at all, I would imagine the livery is just interim one, end of Feb should see them more like.

    There's not much else to talk about till the season starts. We all know even testing times are worthless. :cool:

    That's a very attractive car. The dark blue shows the contours nicely.

    +1, I think this is the best looking of the 09 cars so far. maybe the dark color scheme hides the ugly.

    Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but I do believe Williams' pre-season car is typically solid dark blue like this every year (at least for the last few years). I doubt the car will be solid blue like this once the season starts.

    What's with the big schnozes on these things?

    The massive improvement in looks from something as subtle as slicks is amazing. Those grooved pieces of bum wipe have got to go!

    My dog just deposited something that looks better than the Renault.

    You know, this one actually isn't too bad. I kind of like it actually, and maybe the race livery will make it look even better.
