Come on guys that is an ugly ass car. Mercedes don’t really have a looker in their current range, except maybe a well sorted E-class with good spec. The German brands have really jumped the shark styling wise. Audi probably the best of a bad bunch.

I can never get over how cheap cars are in America. The same car in most parts of Europe is double that, in €.
Being a judge and Muslim seem to contradict each other. The former requires rational objectivity, the latter dismisses it.
She was brake checked because she sped up to stop the silver car from undertaking her. Silver car driver got pissed off, swerved back in front of her, and brake checked her. Her assholery caused the silver car’s assholery.
I wonder will they attach the steering wheel to the front wheels on this iteration.
In an ironic twist of fate, every time I like this article I’m removing a ‘recommend’. You deserved 61 recomend but now appear to be at 56 likes. Great article btw.
I think this may be one of the funniest comments I’ve ever read on Jalopnik.
Can’t wait to see if they break their record for how quickly they can make this model obselete...presumably by releasing a LE special with a carbon fibre ashtray for $20k extra.
As a European who doesn’t like to buy/lease cars on credit, I cannot wait to own one of these in 7 years time.
I agree 10,000,000%. I look at the F10 and think it is exactly as you describe it, basically a bland ‘heap of shite’. Even in M sport guise it still looks bloated and cumbersome. My loins still yearn for an E60 M5/535d. Yes I said it. A 535 DIESEL.
What ages car designs so quickly nowadays is the overstyling, this shape is as clean as a whistle. Sell it new now, price it below the Corvette = profit.
10 speeds?? Someone’s been watching too much fast and furious.
An older car that could actually pass as a new model. The original Viper is one of the best designed cars of the modern era. There. I said it.
I went car shopping with a friend who was convinced he was going to buy a Volvo. He saw a Boxster for roughly the same price (about €10k, few years ago) and thought what the heck, and gave it a test drive. Within 30 seconds of driving it he was smitten. Since he’s owned it he’s replaced everything bar the engine, but…
It boggles the mind that Mazda struggle to sell cars that are more efficient, better specced, better handling and better looking than their competitors. Yet you will still have idiots splurging on unremarkable, platform sharing VWs and Audis...we’re willing to sacrifice so much for the sake of a badge/name/past…
Look at that crappy dash and center console. I get the feeling that people went into their local Jag dealership hell bent on buying one of these and then sat inside one and wondered if they mistakingly sat in a pre-gen Volvo.
Bet it understeers like a beast.
You’ve got to wonder now that AM have got rid of their one very strong selling point, i.e. cars that are not overdesigned and quite elegant, how are they going to sell this monstrosity considering its switchgear is already dated and the engine offers no performance advantage over the competition?
Let’s do exactly what we did before, in cars most of us can’t afford, and pretend we like each other so we can make more millions! Load of fucking shite.
You’re thinking of Fallujah which is in Iraq maybe? If they were to try this over there I’m thinking roadside IEDs would add a good bit of drama to the action.
