^ to add to that, what the smiley face should have been in the first place. Just needed some elegant tweaking

it looks really good... i just hope it stands out on the road as well (i think it will), because CX-5 for me blends in way too much. I see quite a few on the road and there is no road presence (as there is in the pics).

It's got that same funky ES350 thick separation above the grille. Yuck. Also interesting it only took five months for someone to copy the new BMW 3-series headlights connected to grille look. Good for BMW.

quite few new cars that same separation above the grille, it is not thick, just the rubber seal is seen on ligher colors. I think I saw some new german cars with exactly the same separation, i dont remember which.

Very sexy looking!

Should be interesting to see this and the Fusion side-by-side.

The rear and front is already a winner in my book. Cannot wait to see this thing in person

Looks great, but I will wait until seeing it in person before praising the design too much.

The new CX-5 looks great in pictures, but in person it looks goofy and awkward with strange proportions, that pictures don't fully reveal. I hope this isn't the case for this new 6 here.
