Default Spotted on the strett yesterday - 350Z convertibe and Crossfire.

What a terrible drive home . First I have the misfortune to follow a 350Z convertible - what an ugly back end that car has, its profile is like something out of the 1930s - then it pulls up behind a Crossfire.

Again, another abomination. I don't know what has possesed designers to go for the high body/short cabin look, but frankly I think it's an abomination.

First the Audi TT, and now these vehicles - all style and no taste. Methinks it's a very sad indictment of taste and society.

I couldn't agree more, but have to comment that although I like the 350Z Coupe my GF says exactly the same comments about it.

At least with the 350Z (as opposed to the TT) you can tell which end is the front.

So what exactly is a Crossfire anyway? I saw one today and it looked a lot like a Mercedes from the side. Is it a rebadged effort with a different rear or a completely new design? Daimler Chysler! What's the world coming to? Gottlieb would turn in his grave

It is a Merc. At least it's based on the SLK.

But different body work.
