Spy photos of new models generate more publicity than actually advertising the upcoming model, so they want to make sure that everyone seeing the spy photos knows exactly what they're looking at.

I don't like it. Especially from the B pillar backwards. That air-intake side-by-side with the little windows, covering almost all of them looks rubbish.

Boring for a V10 car. They really need to dispose of the mesh in back.

It looks like a modern rendition of a Supra to me. I wanted one of those so badly when I was a teenager. If I remember correctly, when Motortrend tested the 1997 model it went 0-60 in 4.9 seconds, which for back then was close to Ferrari territory.

It looks like a Nissan GTR made love with a TVR Sagaris.

Looking at the MkIV Supra and then the LF-A, you sort of hark back to simpler times when a car's design could be flowing and simple, instead of jutting and overly tricky.

^I agree. Flowing lines are just so beautiful. I think this car is pretty ugly. Especially the exhausts and the mesh below the lights

It's a damn shame nobody designs a flowing car anymore, and that an "updated" design is just an older, flowing design with more rigid lines.

Overall it's nice looking, but there's just a few screwed up spots that completely kill the car. Honestly, wtf is going on with the front end? With some slight fixing, it looks much better:
