Please don't take this the wrong way.I dont mean any company, brand or manufacturer disrespect.
I realize designing producing and manufacturing a Car is a huge well coordinated process that provides a living to many and utilizes the talents of a lot of hardworking professionals.
All I am noting is that some manufacturers have alternative design philosophies than the W123 or W124 series of Benz diesels....

Personally I though the Nissan 350 looks a little goofy, kind of like a blown up Power Rangers Toy car. I know its a powerful and maneuverable and well engineered car, but it sure kills the idea of classic and refined sports car lines that Porsche and Benz did a lot to advance..
