Best family look revamp

[Ingolstadt]

Hi guys, noticed since y2k, a couple of manufacturers revamped their family looks, design philosophy. Which in your opinions, had done best?

Alfa Romeo
From sexy curves of irregular works of art, to mainstream sharp edges with a dash of retrospective chromes.

Audi
The gaping mouth

Bentley
Squarish no more, sleek is the new lux

BMW
Flame, concave surfacing

Citroen
Logo that blends with the grills

Ferrari
Vertically oblongated headlamps and more and more diffusers popping out.

Mercedes
From the widebody on an S-Class? To the boring E, and the sexy CLS. Mercedes is doing it all out.

Volvo
Sexy Volvos? No way! But it seems this is where they're heading.

Volkswagen
Another gaping mouth worshipper, they're moving more and more upmarket. Hence instead of the German Trio, could it well be German Quads in few years to come?

VW and alfa romeo seem pretty good looking these days

Audi or VW or Ferrari. It's too hard to choose.

Volvo is getting better...VW isn't bad...Audis are a massive improvement and look amazing.

Volvo FTW! I think all of the other car companies actually look worse than they did before their respective redesigns (but I honestly don't know regarding Alfa and Citroe - and VW and Bentley - meh).

Ferrari - 612 Enzo blues

Benz - S classless, CL so-so, upcoming E class? disgrace!

BMW - just terrible

Audi - shut your mouth (other than the grille, Audis are AMAZING)

Bentley - Meh

VW - NA Rabbit is good, Passat is poor, new Phaeton is pathetic, Jetta is OK, chrome grille is HORRIBLE

I <3 Audi's new look.

[Ingolstadt]

I voted for Volvo myself. I think they've done a great deal. Audi on the other hand, though accepted by more mainstreamers, had abandone what made them famous all this while - Subtlety. BMW however, kick started with some arrogant like-it-or-don't-buy-it approch, somehow seems not-so-ultimate when they started to switch backwards to svelte, strong looks rather than downright menacing, monstrous looks.

I <3 Audi's new look.

I <3 your mom's new look too.

[Rockefella]

I <3 your mom's new look too.

Tell your mom that the child-support that I pay on your name is cut-off.

Tell your mom that the child-support that I pay on your name is cut-off.

I was going to cut off your allowance, so it's good that you're cutting his child support.

Alfa Romeo
Can't comment, haven't seen any in person. Seeing a car in person is a must. Scale, how the light highlights the shape, paint quality, quality...

Audi
The mouth may be big but a number plate breaks up the gape nicely. One of the only cars that looks better with number plates. Overall very handsome cars. The A3 5-door is the least good looking, the lines must work for the 3-door, 'cause the A3 sent to the US is awkwark.

Bentley
Ultimate VWs, what they would look like, what they look like.

BMW
New slogan: It's a BMW, you'd never have guessed.

Citroen
Can't really comment but I really like the uniqueness of the Flagship in the luxury niche.

Ferrari
Proof that no one can always come up with the best. The Ferrari shapes are classy and ageless but they don't cause you to gape. I like the new Ferrari looks, the shape understates, it's more about how good the car is and not about just turning heads.

Mercedes
Overall evolving very nicely. The next Gen cars are bound to be better. It's almost like Mercedes is readying the world for amorphous shape with an interim morphing with softened squares.

Volvo
A lot better than before but then again, how couldn't it. Sheesh these use to look like metal bricks with an abundance of flat panes of glass.

Volkswagen
Latest Jetta took a downturn. The last Jetta was amongst the nicest VWs ever, maybe only after the Corrado. The Golf/Rabit is great. The Phaeton was a gorgeous, it would have made a great A8, if only the A8 wasn't more gorgeous.

No doubt.
