Can anybody tell me why it's uglier than competitors?

 

[Will.c]

because they have tryed to keep the design similar to an ordinary porsche and obviously it doesent work well streched over the body of a 4x4

I'd like a specific part of it that's ugly.

And if you think it's ugly, then you think the X5 is ugly, too.

I like the Design, it one of the Most Powerful and Sexest SUV's ever.

it does look like the X 5.. I think porsche should stick to cars.

I think it looks like a Hyundai Tiburon - but then, I think the Mayback looks like a LWB Hyundai Grandeur.

I must say, vat_man, if you're talking about this Hyundai Tiburon, then I'm not the one with the skewed views of automotive styling; this one is great:

I wholeheartedly agree. It's one thing to steal styling cues from another car, it's another to steal them from Ferrari, and it's yet another to do a good job of stealing it. I wouldn't want to drive one, but if that were FR and had a real V6 in there (not the abysmal 2.7L), then it might have been Korea's first awesome sports car.

I seriously wanted to drive one when they came out, and I did. Body roll has been limited muchly, but the ride is very harsh. The V-6 is without question the best Korean engine ever -- for the car, that engine is perfect. And the styling is one of the biggest styling improvements (over the previous model) ever.
