LOL, I just envisioned you giving someone a dirty look and flooring it... and grinning.

Interesting you say that though.
Nobody ever looked twice at my D3

D4 is a head turner all day long, which I always presumed was mostly due to the LED DRLs.
If it's scaring the crap out of people... even better. They should stay away!
Just wait until my NC Sheriff tag goes on

Default D3 Style Is Unique and Timeless

I disagree entirely. My ancient '05 gets compliments rather often.

Regarding the tail end... I immediately pictured Nissan 3 series... With Dodge Challenger single-eyebrow tail lamp.

It's pretty smooth overall but, as everyone is pointing out, all the parts seem to hearken to other manufacturers' lines.

Disappointing.

Yes. I remember that bright green oil leaking from them. But it was best ride quality ewer. Only if they ware made in Germany.

Well, just to have the last word, beautiful but modest girl can be unnoticed, but snarling one newer.

P.S. Do you have to announce something? New job?
