Facelifts that made the car uglier

>>28916424this was my favorite version of the Porsche because its what I grew up with. I dont care what faggot boomers say
>>28916469>this was my favorite version of the Porsche because its what I grew up with.the base 996s were mid lookingMost of us had posters of the wide body 996s
The start of the big grills, the end of good looking Audis.
>>289164242nd gen Dodge Stealth1st gen had a funky wing, but that can be taken off.2nd gen just said: Embrace the ugly funk with a face only a mother could love (begrudgingly)
this ugly motherfucker
post of early to mid 2000s BMWs imothe pre lci all had front facias with headlights and hoods matching the rest of the car, but the facelift tried to make them all more modern by smoothing everything out, so you end up with sharp geometric shapes that have weird smooth headlights and bumpersbest example would be the e46 coupes pre lci and lci
>>28916483>Most of us had posters of the wide body 996sCan't imagine having a poster of a McDonald's strutted cuckbox.

>>28916483No one with a working set of eyes would choose a poster of that ugly thing when the Carrera GT existed at the same time.
>>28916483>open diff McDonald fried egg car on his wall Lmao. What? Bro. Get help.
>>28916530Audis first single frame grills were just good design and heritage. I won’t pretend it started an arms race that led the industry down a bad path but it’s really an excellent design
:(
>>28916654Pre-LCI looks retarded, it has a double chin.
>>28916424I like both, fuck boomers.
>>28916654Nah, facelift E46 mogs in most situations. Especially with the M-body kit 2.
Most of the facelifts that happened in the late 70s/early 80s when they ditched chrome bumpers and round lamps for ugly plastics and square lights.
>>28917229Still looks great. I have no problem with that one.
>>28916654Agreet. e46 facelift ownerBut what you're describing is the problem with 90% of facelifts. The original car is designed with certain design language, in this case it's all rounded of corners, then the corporate face moves on and a new, angular, hard edged front end is glued to the now outdated car.

>>28916424I find the facelift W212 Mercedes E-Class awful. The W212 was designed with sharp edges and creases, yet they rounded it all off with "organic" styling, gave it a generic set of headlights and also started to throw the awful big-star grille on instead of the classic radiator grille and hood star (still available, but rare and not on 99% of factory sold models).I'd say this was the last decent era of MB before they entirely lost the plot.

>>28917314Nta but I personally like the Clio facelift, though it might just be because I own one. I also think the Mk3 looked better post-facelift.
>>28917643new one is unironically way better looking
>>28917645technically subjective but you're still wrong.
>>28917645Biggest issue was that the lights look identical to an Audi TT. So at night when one comes up behind you, you don't know if you're about to get gaped or get your hair done.
>>28917645It's not the worst they've ever done, but I just don't get why BMW is "evolving" their design by removing the signature angel eye design and going with the light design of a decade old Volkswagen instead.
>>28917652That Golf looks better than the BMW and the TT.
>>28917653That's exactly what a poor person would say.
>>28916424Porschefags are mentally ill
>>28917652It's because it looks way better than whatever this shit was.
>>28917664you have a bag of shit where your brain should be.
>>28917672you don't have to get upset because you have bad taste
>>28917653Always the case.
>>28917544Amen brother! Came here to say this! The facelift w212 is basically not a w212 anymore, its completely different car, not just design wise. Facelift has no soul anymore, pre facelift w212 was indeed truly the last great mercedes
>>28917039>No one with a working set of eyes would choose a poster of that ugly thinglol literally no one with eyes called the 996 turbo ugly because its well proportionedyou underaged faggots don't know anything about cars or general design and every opinion you hold is something you heard online, wrongly, and parrot like the empty brained retards you are
they have progressively made the 86 more bland and boring with each iteration
>>28919221I disagree with this one too2020s nucar styling > 2010s nucar styling
>>28919256>Lines and curves bad>Lifeless blob good ok retard
>>28919262the old one is way blobbier though
>>28916424The zenki, the way the car is supposed to look, only had a two year production run. For the facelift goyota gave the car mouthguard braces (middle in pic)
