:cool:
 
Looks like someone stretched it out in Photoshop, with the roof loosing curvature as they did it.

Other than that, it looks the same.
 
Looks like a PT Cruiser and Panamera had an illegal alien baby
 
Good grief that's hideous! B to C pillar looks totally out of proportion and the backend suffers from Crossfire Syndrome - it looks like a dog parking its breakfast.

:barf:

EDIT: And I can't believe my landmark 5000th post was wasted on that total pile of garbage. FML!

I would have never guessed that they are planning a new one. It's not like anyone has ever bought the old one.
 
Its like this

but done wrong.
 
The rear roofline looks much more like the original, but the huge snout completely gives away the fact that it's still front-engined. There isn't that much you can do to a retro design before it stops becoming retro, so this looks like the logical progression of the line. Still silly though.
 
i'm sorry, but i think that looks a lot better than the current one!

it's still ugly, but at least it has proportions instead of just being mirrored from the center

(reminds me of a baby-panamera :unsure:)
 
Just like bone said, looks better than the current one.

I think it would look better with a shorter bonnet. That is kind of throwing it off for me.
 
Hideous. This is the downside to retro car designs, updating them.
 
Looks far better than the previous model, as well as actually looking like the original. Can't say I'm attracted to it, seeing as I'm not a fan of Beetles to begin with, but this is definitely better.
 
Looks more retro now, more like a squished bug.

They have been saying they would for about.. 3 years now?

I was hoping they would improve it.... they are obviously taking from porsche's design book and barely changing anything which is lame since they have been teasing it for so long. Also they said it would be more like the original (ie: rear engined and less... well fat) but the only thing I see more like the original is the roof, which means they have killed the fact it had such impressive headroom. (I would say I have more headroom than most SUVs) So from what I can see they made it worse. Unless it has great handling, which I doubt, this one is as half assed as the old one. Fuck you VW.
