A rampaging lion is a very prominent symbol in heraldry even with the artistic liberty taken with updating the logo. I respectfully disagree.

It doesn't stick its tongue out anymore ; it actually looks great now.

What? You're crazy. It looks evil and foreboding. Perfect for Elon Musk aka the next super villian.

I came here just to post that! Yeah, that cute lil NX is fucking awesome. T-tops AND fuel-efficiency? Hell yeah! And of course, the sporty SR20. And you could even get a cool digital dash too!
