Saw the new Puma today, actually looks slightly better in the flesh I must say. Plus grey worked better for it than the blue I've seen online. Front pretty gash, but I could live with the rest.

Seen loads of these in Essex over the last few weeks now. Personally think they look pretty funky in ST line guise and agree they're very colour sensitive.
Grey or white with the contrasting black accents looks pukka as does the all black.
Major slagging off by most of the non motoring press internet, but selling like hotcakes from what i see here.

They look OK but it shouldn't be called a Puma. Do they not have any imagination to call them something else rather than digging up old ones especially ones with a cult following and are so different to the modern named one.

They've brought the name back because it was originally a small coupe and the Cougar was a regular sized coupe, now it's a small SUV and the Kuga is a regular sized SUV. That's my thought on the name anyway.

It's actually pretty decent to drive and will likely be quite fun when they bring out the ST with the 1.5T from the Fiesta ST.

It's still not a puma though is it! Why not bring out a small coupe on the fiesta chassis and call it a puma. Every manufacturer is just bringing out as many suv's of verious sizes as they can with. Can't wait for Ford to bring out a new Escort, capri, anglia ect.

Coupes aren't that fashionable anymore, not little ones anyway. Most buyers want SUVs, so that's what people are making unfortunately.

Couple of good (replicas) in my village yesterday. Apologies for the shonky shots, blame the wife.

That noise of a shonky old OHV llump being spat through a mild steel peashooter. Unmistakable.
 
Bit of a cheat, but the F8 Tributo demo turned up at the local dealership. I quite like it.

Hmmmm, not sure I like that. I adore the 458 and 488, but that looks a bit too much somehow. We seem to be going through a period of design where lots of lines, creases and angles are the fashion. It makes it look a bit fussy. I'm sure it's still bonkers though.

I still find the front end / headlights really strange, I've seen a couple recently, a pearl white one and an orange one, I've got pics of it. It was nice!
I agree it would be a lovely looking car but I can't get past those headlights
 
Just saw the grey Evora I saw the other day. I was out in the wild today though. I didn't realise it was a v8, it sounded fruity!! Really nice!
 
Saw a black Mk3 Focus RS earlier, it had the silver wheels on it and it looked pretty normal. I only really noticed it by the rear spoiler.
