Sure looks like they really are competing for the "most ridiculously over done" front grill award.

In some ways I like this 3 even more than I like the new 6. If it gets good MPG then I could see myself rolling in this.

The thing about it is that back in 1986 those cars were viewed as radically swoopy for family sedans. The new Taurus/500 is slightly blockier but still, if it had been done in the early 80's it would be considered bullet-like.

The envelope is always being pushed, as it should be.
