Headlights in that photoshop look like they're off a previous ten Acura TL...

No. It needs the LED headlights.

You are correct, it does. Total game changer



its weird because the white F model shown doesnt have the LED, but the blue one does.

The headlights in that configuration just don't work for me. I prefer the separated DRLs to that.

Separated DRL's are a bit more unusual now, for a bit more individuality.
GS F looks nice at many angles.
Maybe better in the flesh?
And maybe just takes time to grow on you.
The extra wide mouth certainly grows on you...

^^^^^^^^


Am I the only one wondering after the camera stopped how long it took for the crew to succumb to carbon monoxide poisoning? I didn't see any way for outside air to get in there.

The GS and RC are not photogenic, especially the front and they look better in person. It's hard to make my car look good in photos, u need to angle it right otherwise it'll come out weird looking.

BMWs are photogenic, they look really good in photos but so-so in real life.

So which one you want? Photogenic or real life handsome? I agree, you have to get the camera in certain ways to appreciate the design. If one brings the camera level down a bit, the shots will come out nicer IMO.
The other morning as I was approaching a light, I passed a clean white F Sport waiting to enter the traffic. It surprised me that after almost 3 years I still have a strong feel for this vehicle. Didn't really appreciate the exterior design much when I got the car but it has definitely grown since. Regardless if I stay with 4GS family, I will get the 16 refresh. I'd rather have the latest. IMO, '15 looks nice but it will be outdated by '16 at some points, just like the rest of most cars.
