I agree that it looks a lot better with the Mazdaspeed piece than the
clown face. I guess most people have a favorite decade for car looks,
and at this rate, for me, it will always be the 1990's, followed closely
by the 1960's.

I saw a movie filmed in 1985 not long ago and it showed the kids being
dropped off at high school at the beginning. Every single car that
pulled up, including the BMW sedan, was awful-looking.

What a horrible decade in general that was for cars, and the 1970's were
not much better.
