hmm... the side (profile) view doesn't look as nice compared to straight-on from the front or the rear for some reason. maybe it's 'cuz the panel lines are offset or the body is too long? (it reminds me of the previous generation honda civic coupe- esp the tail lights.) not quite sure, but something seems a bit off, for some reason. the e46 m3 looked very symmetrical, aggressive, and balanced regardless the view. maybe it's just me... <shrugs>
