Question Thoughts on 2010 3's

So, I don't know much about the 2010 3's yet besides the body style changes and the step up the the 2.5L but why does everyone hate them so much?

Granted the front "grin" is hideous looking but the new style headlights/taillights i think are sharper looking in the 10' than previous years. the new sides and back I think look great...

I've always been a fan of dual outlet exhaust which they have now on the 2.5's

so besides the front hideous "grin" what else is so bad?

Tracker seems to think the the new 3's are the real seventh circle of hell lol

I like the 2010, except for the smile in front, and with the I Sedan it looks like the car has braces

I didn't like it too much in pics, but I've now seen them in person and I think they look great. Pics don't do the design justice.

Granted it does look better in person, the sides of the car look WAY to broad.
There seems to be so much room on the sides and no accent.
The "smile" is too gay.
The back is the only thing I can stand.
It just has that new look to it, next to my car, it seems to make it look outdated, but I love my design over the new generation.

I love it, wasn't sure about the front smile at 1st in pictures, but after seeing one in person, it grew on me and I love it now. I would of buy it now if I can, but wife banned me from buying a new car now before I pay off my 07 Acura TL. Plus my 99 Protege is running just fine with no problem.

Scott, I don't think there's a good color for the new model...it's hideous, in and out.
