It's not often you see a car you've never seen before, and today I had the privilege of setting my eyes on one of these beauties for the first time....

You'd have thought a large company like Toyota would be able to take the pick of the bunch in car designers, but they still ended up with a bland nothingness.

Very trim sensitive those. The facelift certainly improved things:

Agreed with Kambites, the Focus Convertible is horrible at the back, but I acctually think it looks quite good from the front, bit of a shame really!

It looks like a Focus from the front, oddly enough. smile

With pretty much any CC though, they never look good with the top up from any angle.

Save for maybe the Volvo offering and the current 3-series.

The Eos looks OK, so does the Renault one. Even the Pug 307(?) isn't as bad as the Focus.

I'm not heaping praise on the Focus, the CC version is quite hideous.

The EOS has a "trick" though - notice how the sunroof pulls back and where the side spines wind up:

This allows it have sensible proportions - it doesn't have to have a bootlid the same length as the roof.
