I assume this is the final production version unlike the de-badged one posted above. What's funny is that the grille actually looks smaller than the current pre-refresh.

As always i find white the weakest color (just imo), but that looks really bland.

Same. I really try and like white cars but I just can't.

I think it looks terrible. It manages to be boring, gaudy, generic and offensive at the same time.

I can't disagree about the white. It manages to suck the life out of even the Giulia, which I consider the best-looking car in this segment by a mile.

Agreed! Put the camo back on, please.

The pre-refresh looks much better than this.

The taillights on the white version remind me of a 2000/2001 Daewoo Leganza.

Yes, I thought the original was better, and the refresh is going backwards.
Not good for their future sales.

You're going to have to do a lot of explaining for the similarities.

I guess the first thing that comes to his mind when he sees this must be a Daewoo too.

No, that doesn’t remind me of a Daewoo because it doesn’t look like the taillights of a Daewoo. And, yes, to the other comments, because they go red, clear, and red (on just the white car). I just said they reminded me of them. It wasn’t a bad thing. I felt like they were making an homage to a fellow Korean automaker.
