I reckon it looks good, not sure about the black under the headlight, probably breaks it up a bit too.. Some angles it does look alot like VE but at least it doesn't have massive flares  |

| ahhhh yes agree there dont like the door handles.... bloody toyota/holden door handles the original lift up ones looked fine! and yeah the indicators in the mirrors gay. I think they did great with the BA...Hell i even like the AU Series II onward. Especially in a Ghia. But this is a warped AU/VE/Mondeo. I wont say i like it because it has a ford badge. Maybe it will get some holden owners changing to ford... Hell it looks like a holden... but has a better motor, box and everything else! Maybe a good step lol |

| the rear looks similar to bf and the front like a focus. for all the money they spent developing the all "new" model i was expecting a litle more. looks very euro like those other things. |

| it was supposedly modeled very similarly to the mondeo. i love the look of the rear of the car, but the front i'm still trying to get a grip on. overall looks great |

| I like the back of it, very sleek looking. The front could be better. Then again maybe these piccies are just another red herring? |

looks tough and a bit classy to. dont mind the look of the front.
the roof looks lower and the side windows look small.
the car flows nicly but will save my judgment till i see one in the flesh or some real pics. |

I was just thinking that . . . they might leak them out for a typr of free market research. gather all the reactions from everywhere and go back to the drawing board (hopefully) |

I don't think it's an accident that all these things are being leaked.
I like it, but don't like the black out under the lights.... Otherwise it gets my vote. |

I don't like the black under the headlights either - I don't think anyone does, Stupid FPV.
I also dislike the black on the bottom of the rear bumper - that's so Holden Commodore - they've been doing that for a while now.
Looks pretty tough otherwise but. |

Needs chunkier front lights, same as the ba xr, to toughen up the front appearance. The lights look far too slimline there and it makes the rest of the front huge. elephants be afraid of that front air dam too. Would have also liked slightly larger windows. Not a fan of the ve for that reason. But oh well, see what happens hey!

I love it, it looks awesome!!! I would buy one tomorrow if i could.
I bet you that the non-performance ones eg, futura, fairmont would not have the black part around the headlights |

It looks like a gridiron player to me. with the war paint under the eyes and a mouthgaurd in. 
the back sure does look like it is holden together alright.
All the new cars with high waist lines feel like you are sitting in a coffin to me. Maybe i am too short and should sit on a cushion. That would go nice with my slippers, i guess.  |
