Alfa Romeo : Alfa 147 (#)

„The car is designed for people who are looking for a compact, sporty car with attractive styling, a strong personality and category-topping road manners. In other words, a great little Alfa able to assure the level of driving entertainment and traveling satisfaction that has brought such success to the latest generation of Alfa Romeo models.

2007 GENEVA AUTO SHOW- Audi makes a prettier coupe than the Mercedes CL, BMW 6 and 335? First real photos - AutoSpies Auto News (#)

„I think it's a nice car overall, okay profile (I particularly like the very thin roof line above the side windows), nice swoopy character line (unfortunately that line brings to mind the Toyota Solara), clean rear styling; on whole it's fairly cohesive. The front end is the best element of the design, it's interesting and aggressive and though I was an early critic of the huge grill, I guess I've become accustomed to it and it works with this car ...“

Audi A5 spotted with less disguise (#)

„I agree 100% with YourName - whereas every other manufacturer has questionable styling, the Audis just keep getting nicer and nicer, smoother and cleaner…a better product overall each time and much more reliable than when they initially came to the States in the 80's with all the nightmare electrical issues…and I can assure you the finished version of this car will leave no one yawning or disappointed(note the R8 spy shots vs the R8 finished product)…“

Detroit Auto Show: Toyota's FT-HS Concept in the flesh - Autoblog (#)

„The styling of the FT-HS is truly a love/hate proposition that hinges on your reaction to the car's nose. We're still debating internally on whether or not it was inspired by the hull of a boat or the nose cone of an F1 car, but either way it's a new interpretation of the front fascia that isn't just headlight-grille-headlight. We especially like the concept's floating C-pillar, which is essentially the car's roof, as well.“

Clarkson on BMW's 335i: "Nice motor, shame about the car" (#)

„The hypocrisy is running so deep here I can hardly believe it, even for this board which is replete with 12 year old potty mouths who cant even do a paper route yet let alone buy a car. deantj you might just top the list, you complain about someone elses opinion of the styling of a car then turn around on another thread and make comments equal to JC's about a different car.“

GENEVA PREVIEW: 300hp E100 Saab concept to take a bow: Automotive News & Comment (#)

„The car accelerates from 0 - 62 mph (100km/h) in 6.6 seconds and accelerates from 50 to 70 mph in fifth gear in 8.2 seconds. Updated exterior and interior styling distinguishes the new car. Saab already markets Europe's best selling flex-fuel vehicle, the 9-5 BioPower, and claims the BioPower 100 Concept will extend its leadership in the development of bioethanol technology ...“

„We like it, even though we see elements of Ferrari and Viper in its exposed headlamped front end and its gilled sides, and find that the trunk lid is right at workbench level. We like the coupe's styling better than the convertibles because the coupe's roofline more strongly carries forward cues from the famed Stingrays of the 1960s.“

Toyota Announces Pricing for Camry Hybrid 50th Anniversary Edition - AutoSpies Auto News (#)

„Anyways the camry may not be an supersport car, but then again a car doesnt have 2 b it so that it can b classified as beautiful. And so that u can understand, the #1 reason overall for buying a car is styling, and in my oppinion the car looks good, it maynot be the most beautiful but still its bood.“

Volkswagen : Bentley Continental GT (#)

„Another unique feature of the styling of the car is the Central High Mounted Stop Lamp, known somewhat awkwardly in the industry as the CHMSL. Regulations require the CHMSL to occupy a certain area, but do not dictate its shape. So, some free thinking later and the Continental GT is fitted with a CHMSL that is just 3mm tall but fully one metre wide.“

Green Car Congress: Solar-Power-Augmented Prius Takes the Grid Out of Plug-in (#)

„Maybe the idea of a PV paint is a good idea-red paint maybe? The solar panel does not help the styling but lets say the solar panels could be flat and flush with the roofline and put on a car like the Honda Civic. The panels themselves could be styled in some cool blue finish. Some people like the styling of the Civic better than the Prius.“

„Drivers who select the sportier TX trim (above) see the car dressed up with alloys, additional skirting, and a rear decklid spoiler that caps a tidy rear end. The car's styling is such that if you covered the "S" logo and replaced it with, say, a Peugeot badge, you wouldn't bat an eyelash. This is a nice-looking kei.“

2006 Paris Motor Show (#)

„The third-generation upper-medium Mondeo will grow significantly to give more passenger space as well as improved crash protection. Although it will continue to resemble the current Mondeo, the new car will take many styling cues from the Iosis concept such as its sporty profile, bold upper and lower grilles and large headlights ...“

Live from the Big Auto - Popular Mechanics (#)

„Another value destroyer, Ghosn says, is bland, safe, cookie-cutter car design. Building passion into car styling is what really makes people want to buy cars. He'll get no argument from us. While you’re at it, Carlos, throw in a 400-horse V8.“

10Best Cars: Best Full-Size Sedan - 10Best Cars - Car and Driver January 2006 (#)

„Chrysler struck a responsive chord with the broad-shouldered, armored-car styling of the 300. It's a get-outta-my-way look that seems to be in step with the times, a look that's backed by the option of Hemi V-8 power. Think muscular elegance, a Pro Bowl linebacker in black tie.“

New BMW Reviews - Car and Driver (#)

„The previous-generation 5-series was a clear class leader, but the current model faces stiff competition from Japanese and German rivals. It is a fine car to drive, but the styling is somewhat controversial, and there are simply better values out there in this segment.“
