My Vantage Hunter Grill Not The Worst Now

[Rjscharer]

We Americans have now outdone the front end run to the ugly. In my opinion the new Corvette z06 has taken the honor away from the mother country.

I actually don’t mind that. Side profile is a bit Mclaren to my eyes

I have seen one in the flesh and to me its all a bit too angular and wedgie a bit overdone IMO.

Likewise, it works with the whole car. The hunter grill (to my eyes) and the little headlights don't.

Just your opinion. I would agree with Top GEAR…

It's a matter of personal taste for sure.

I would not put much stock in the opinions of Top Gear or any reviewers. There was a lot of blatant "sucking up" to AM when the new Vantage was released. An unfavorable review and you are no longer on the invite list.

I like that! A bit aggressive, but I have seen an awful lot worse.

With the new, mid-engined 'Vette, GM had a real opportunity. In typical fashion, it was squandered with poor styling (IMHO). I don't think that has stopped sales, though. Then again, 20 years ago I used to see a lot of Azteks on the road, and that surely has to be in the running for ugliest vehicle ever made. Maybe Aston is marketing to the wrong demographic...

I first saw one the other day and wondered what it was, IMO Corvette has lost its identity. Looks like a cross between Ferrari and Mclaren.
