Is It Just Me Or Does The New Cruze Look Like It Was Styled By Dame Edna?

[CapriciousWL]

To me the headights look really quite ugly - Dame Edna would be proud

[WogBoyz]

Dunno mate, looks fine to me lol

[Shedvl]

funny you mention it..I passed by one today while I was looking for a parking spot. It was in the Poison Ivy green I think...but even that didnt make it look any tougher lol. They make it out to be this great looking car. It doesnt even look like a Holden to me

[Shedvl]

I saw it from the rear..the shape is not good

[GEN3RATD]

i reckon it looks boss

[DLFHUB666]

looks alot like the old one except for the grilles.

[Shedvl]

hmm would be interested in the ratio of male/female buyers ? do you think its targeted more to men ? men seem to like the shape.

[DLFHUB666]

I dont mind the shape at all, i brought one for the misses in 09 when they came out.If they came out with the alloytec an in rear wheel drive it would appeal to me more.

[GEN3RATD]

yeah rear wheel drive is needed haha

[CapriciousWL]

Take a look at the position of the lights. They wrap around getting thinner at the top with LED indicators that accent the Dame Edna effect.

Was followed home by one. Very unattractive.

[Astranomical]

Meh, just looks like a normal boring Korean designed car to me.

[Darren_L]

they look alright to me, for what they are.
The VF Commodore styling is based fairly heavily on the cruze, so if you don't like the cruze......

[STEEV888]

its just as ugly as any current model commodore.

[Drawnnite]

why cant they just put their "prototype" models in. they always look sooo much better then what they dish out.

and i really cannot tell the difference between that cruze and the old one

[Troy711]

I reckon this looks pretty tough.

[Drawnnite]

I reckon this looks pretty tough.

*makes typical quote* the chev badges ruin it =P

although it looks oh so much better then our cruze, way more meaner

[CapriciousWL]

Yes, the 12" wheels at the front look special.

[franck]

still fuggly in race trim and wtf is it with those scooter wheels?

[CapriciousWL]

I question the air intakes on the bonnet. Whole package not quite right.

If someone wants not they can have it - I just think Dame Edna should be the public face due to the headlights.

[franck]

your right i can see the dame in those lights...but then again a bottle of shiraz will do that...

[captaincupcake]

I reckon the fact that the cruze is a daewoo with holden badges glued on is why it looks ugly

Is isn't a Daewoo. Opel is responsible for most of the engineering. I think it is a great looking small car.

[CapriciousWL]

Opel may have engineered but Daewoo would have built (if they still exist)

[captaincupcake]

well each to thier own. i spose the old cruze wasnt a re badged suzuki. oh wait it was

Cruz has been built in many countries including Russia, India, Brazil, China and Vietnam. Now it is being built in Australia so certainly not a Daewoo.

Yeah it was a reworked Ignis but the new Cruz is a whole new car built on their Delta II platform designed under a global design and engineering team. Calling it a Daewoo is lame.
