That is 1 ugly front grill for the Model S Alpha
the grill before is much better looking.
apart from that the car looks OK

I like it too, but it does look like the Jag! Which isn't a bad thing at all IMHO

I think its the crome that is around the grill that dont look good
here is the old design
I think if they have a mesh on the grill would look better or if the dont have the grill at all and have the front as 1 thing.

I think both looks good.

There's only one word I have for it: sleek.

I think it's bad-ass.

How nice would it go all week w/o having to fill up the take with $4 premium fuel?
