I can't get past thinking that looks like a big arsed Lexus GS with an H badge on the back.

It looks quite heavy if you know what I mean? Like it would be heavy in the corners and stuff. I think a bigger, badder set of alloys could put that right mind.

But I'm still mixed on the 8th gen. Sometimes I think they look great, but other times I'm not sure. Inside, and driving wise, they're top shelf, but looks wise I still prefer the 7th at the moment.

Steve have you drove one yet if you haven't it will changed your mind trust me

Yeah I've spent a day in a 2.2 Diesel. Loved it for sure. Would love it even more if it was a 2.4 Petrol . I have no gripes with it from a user point of view. I think the cabin is far superior as well as the handling and feel. I just think side by side, the 7th gen still has the edge on image. The 8th looks heavier. But like I said, sometimes, from some angles I think the 8th looks stunning, then other pictures I see I think "Meh!". You know. I'm quite conflicted about the issue I guess :blink: .

Doesn't look quite right somehow.. maybe it's the huge CB Radio antenna on the rear :lol:

you found it brett, good spot!

 

[whereami]

its a good photo, it looks like honda and bmw were sharing notes and sketches of there designs, they look similar B)

 

[vile]

Yep mate the wife spotted it lol

 

[Stevearcade]

I do like the rear lights on this. Although they don't look the FD2 rear end, it still sort of reminds of the FD2.

Wrong alloys for a Type S. AskMID shows to be an ESGT...?

I thought that too!
