Whoa....look at the new Z3.

New Z3

Im not sure what I think of it. It has factory clear tail lights........ewwwwwww.

 

[xraymongral]

I like it. Looks good, now if I only had the money....

 

[mrCide]

Doesn't look that bad, They don't look too 'altezza.'

I don't reall like the front lights on the new 3 series though that I've seen

 

[rml]

clear tail light similar to those after market for Civic or Accord

It looks like a Japanese car now

 

[bigbootydaddy]

i like it.

I will reserve judgement until I see it in the showroom. When the new E38 7-Series came out in 1994, I thought it was fugly compared to the E32 design. Now, I think the E38 is the most beautiful sedan on the planet.

Aren't we a bit late?

A little late? Yes. But for a car as beautifully as this, it can be late all it wants.

 

[Markiepew]

sowie about being late.......maybe I should spend more time in the forums.....

 

[psteng19]

what's with all this hatred with the altezza's and clears?

is it because you're all associating it with "rice" and therefore immediately makes it ugly and tasteless?

i think the IS300 looks good with them, as well as the altima, and the Z3.
i saw a current generation prelude with aftermarket ones, and i think they look good too.

it's just personal perference, but i'm getting the impression that everyone is bandwagon jumping because some of the more established members here tend to think that clears/altezzas are ugly.

Looks like a Miata...nuff said

 

[prontospyder]

I like the new MB SLK better.

[NFS4]

I saw pics of that SLK in C&D about 3-4 months ago...looks like crap!

 

[GTaudiophile]

I have to agree with NFS4. That thing is fugly.

 

[Markiepew]

Altezzas only look good on an Altezza (IS300) and Supra spoilers only belong on a Supra.......in my opinion of course.

 

[slunk]

I've always hated those cars. I think BMW made a bad choice with previous designs. Why not just get a Miata (which I hate too)? They aren't that fast. They are expensive. Hopefully this one won't be as much of an eyesore.

 

[Amused]

I like it.

 

[Markiepew]

yea...the slk looks like it has a big wang sticking out the hood.

 

[Markiepew]

the Z3 would look ok if they changed the front a lil bit.
