    The Mazda is surprisingly nice. Looks like someone enforced "time to lift the pencil" during the design process; quite cohesive.

    As for the Nissan. Well it is less bad than some of their other recent designs. Bu to be clear, that doesn't make it good. There as to be a long list of senior executives at Nissan that need their eyes checked.

    What is up with the anteater front nose on Mazdas and other cars? Are they making dual purpose cars?

    I like it, but the wheels are too big. :) Come on, it's a frigging Honda.

    That Honda looks like a 6/10ths scale Porsche 928.

    One of the reasons I'm griping about big low-profile tires is they make too much noise. My mother's house in Florida is a mile away from a bridge. You can hear a constant background roar.

    By the way, I do believe that's a charging status indicator on the sill trim aft of the door...

    I'm not kidding. I'm sitting on the porch of my house, which will be soon for sale, and the tire noise is overwhelming. And for what? A bunch of rich yuppies to drive to the grocery store?

    Funny, the first thing I thought of was a modern AMC AMX.
