Looks good, I like it. Looks more sporty and aggressive without being gaudy or over-styled. Definitely looks like many future Toyota models will share some of these aggressive cues. Front and rear end styling cues will be shared with the next-gen Rav4.

I like the side profile, the grille could use a slight tweak but it's an overall good design. It's definitely not bland.

It looks like they combined the worst of the CT & the Prius to me. I like the look of the CT, but this thing is nasty. That said, between Lexus's F models & the FR-S, Toyota has regained my interest.

Edit: Note, I do like the look of the CT overall, just some minor details I dislike such as the rear window shape. Wouldn't buy it at that price, but I do like it.

interestingly, it doesnt follow FR-S, but it is more angular, like LFA... thats probably going to be next Toyota thing - very angular design vs previous bulbous.
