Not a bad effort from SAIC imo, but the name sucks. I really like the badge tho.

I think the Nanjing one will look better.

Front grille is a bit too deep IMO and the badge reminds me a bit of Ferrari for some reason :/

pity they got the Rover 75 underpinning, hope they dont make a complete mess of it.  The 75 was an excellent car, even with the "bad" badge on the front.

Theyve been staring at that Chrysler 300 too long.

I think the grill is very Audi TBH.

the grill is basically a modified mgrover premium grill, an option from 2004 on all rover 75s and standard on the V8. Before Chrysler and Audi.

Chryslers in the 60s had grilles similar to that mess

i don;t think its that bad looking TBH, and unless they have made a real mess of the chassis then itll drive well.  The 75 was an excellent car, it handled well, was well equipped and while not being super-fast was probably one of the best motorway cruisers ive ever had the pleasure to drive.  

A lot of people dont care what the badge is, as long as the car is good.

every time I see a rover 75, I just think its a fugly version of the S-type jag :(

I agree, the Hyundia Sonata looks a good bit better than that junk.
