It’s called Maxx, yet it’s a mini-wagon. ---

When I look at this car I think the same thing as when I look at any domestic car; they obviously are not trying to appeal to me. Oh well, I will keep buying foreign cars. ---

Hell I find myself LOVING the new Evo X and Accord Coupe, yet I’d never own either. Even if I dont like your company, atleast try and please me with a design that will make me think about the concept behind it while I have to share the roadways with the idiots you sell your cars to. ---

i like the rear and the sides, reminds me of the new lancer a little bit. HATE the front grille, headlights are OK. All in all I like it. If it comes with that blue lighting in the interior, they’re definitley not trying to appeal to me. ---
