2019 vs. 2018 Comparison Picture Slider

Here's a pretty cool website that uses a slider to quickly compare the 2019 to the 2018 from different angles.

Just as I thought, it's ugly.

A 'two bagger". One for the you and one for the car in case yours comes off!

Back to the drawing board. I am surprised in this day and age why manufacturers don't run some sample renderings by enthusiasts first. A simple poll would make sure they don't make any giant blunders like this.

I don't agree that these refreshes need to grow on you. You should see it for the first time and be like that is awesome.

They did. They ran it by future buyers (like me), not current owners that bought a model that's resulted in dwindling sales. Y'all have already proven you don't know what works well.

Everyone will come around, but you'll do it as slow as Iron Duke.

Just how do they find future buyers and how many were consulted? Just wondering.

Good article, I didn't notice that they changed the rear bumper untill now.

With the exception of the SS hood, the refresh is uglier in every way. I am literally shocked at how badly they messed it up. The tail lights are a bug eyed joke and they don't blend well at all with the rest of the year. The SS front is a Korean looking mess, and the non-SS front just looks dopey.

5th gen 10-13 was a 10. 14-15 was an 8.5. 16-18 was an 8. This is barely a 5.

I dunno, but I've heard there's these companies out there that do market research surveys, whatever that means?

If it makes y'all feel better, my 17 year-old son likes the 2018 better.
