Max Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I'd say you're just about right, I was going to comment on the fact that the headlights in the spy shot look like the headlights of the Edge. We'll see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickF1011 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 (edited) I like the two-tone lower body treatment you did on this chop..takes away a lot of the "bubbly" appearance of the current Five Hundred. Think you could throw 2 more chrome slats in the lower grille like the Fusion? I know the spy pics don't indicate it will be there, but....what the hay.... (Makes me wonder, why is the Fusion the only one they are giving the lower 2 bars to? I think that's one of the most striking features in its design. Something completely out of the ordinary as far as lower fascia treatments for a modern car....every other car looks the same - 2 or 3 vertical connectors, like this Five Hundred for example.)

Roadrunner Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I think it's okay except for the difference in size between the headlights and turn lights. If that got fixed, then we'd have something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FUD Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I DO agree, it does need the lower two bars. - Otherwise, a "Great Job" on the chop! ---------------------------------------------------- 09-300C? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironhorse Posted October 14, 2006 Share Posted October 14, 2006 You folks are trying to put lipstick on a pig. The 500 needs ALL NEW SHEETMETAL. The 500 is like your ugly cousin that you are trying to fix up on a blind date...nice personality...really nice person....but still ugly as shit.

A nose job might not be enough to fix the Five Hundred. It is a nice photoshop job though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edgey Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 (edited) I think the Five Hundred can get buy on its doors and greenhouse, but the rest of it needs substantial restyling to tighten up its vertical girth. The 2008 update is not substantial enough to fix its design problems, but it will help. In either case, aesthetics is not where the 500 excels. The rear-end of the 500 has to be one of the most inert designs to come out this decade from any carmaker. It's square, flat, soft, and bland. Every time I see the rear of a 500, I want to slap J. Mays. It really is a "What were they thinking?" design. It would have worked if they made the lines a little crisper, made the bumper a little sharper, added some depth and detailing to the tail-lights, etc. A stronger arching design to the trunk would have been nice to make it more harmonious with the rest of the design. Instead they settled on a very square shape tacked onto a fairly round design. Edited October 15, 2006 by Edgey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sixcav Posted November 19, 2006 Share Posted November 19, 2006 That thing is Nasty Agreed, it looks like a can of smashed assholes. The whole car needs to be taken down to square 1 with respect to the body design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
