Well, if people are going to post in a public chat-forum, especially on matters like auto-styling (which is highly-subjective), they are going to have to expect that others will sometimes disagree with them. In my 38,000+ posts, I've had people disagree with me lots of times...you just accept it as part of life.

no kidding, one of those "wtf were you thinking, lexus" things...

Eh...I don't think the LS grille is too bad. It's definitely not crazy nice or anything, but I've seen worse....MUCH worse (*cough*Acura*cough*)

The new Acura and Mazda (smiling looking things) grills are hideous.

The grill is just obnoxious and pointlessly big. This generation of Chebbies is a huge black stain on GM's design record. The previous generation looked really nice.

Anybody else think the ends of the bumper look like those big round mirrors in stores that let you see a really wide angle?

Also, had to add this.

Kinda looks like the Chevy stylists had the same problem as the boy trying to spell "banana" . . . they just didn't know when to end it.

I forgot about this one...

What do you attribute this Era of "Butt Ugly Grills" to, economics,lack of design creativity,the bean counters or just indifference?

sdman

None of the above. I attribute it to the tendency of auto designers today to make a bunch of changes (often unneeded or for the worse) just for changes' sake. There seems to be an attitude today that you either change or die....which is sheer nonsense.

Don't wanna see this in rear view mirror



No wonder Pontiac is dead....

Before: (perfect IMO)




After: (WHYYYY????!!)

that's why there's jdm aftermarket grills available!
