I was such a fan of the original DS, that the new one is a bit of a let down. I mean - they basically replaced a style icon with a cutesy feminine and slightly homely French version of a Mini Cooper. It's everything the original DS wasn't. Original DS = looked like nothing else. New DS = looks like the rest of the lineup. Original DS = a sleek yet simple 4 door sedan. New DS: a two hatchback with pretty standard, chunky proportions - and a bit overwrought in the aesthetics department.
I guess it isn't quite fugly - moreso fugly by comparison. Plus it's weird shark fin B pillar makes the car look really look past the doors. It almost looks like it has bread van proportions (especiall in rear 3/4 view).
And what's with this picture supplied with the press release? Why is this woman going to eat the keys? Is this supposed to be erotic?
