It's weird that I am just beginning to see them now. And they are being used as taxis for the Munich Film Festival 2017, a task which was previously exploited by Audi and BMW.

These are pretty sharp-looking. Maybe on your next trip to Europe you can rent one of these and experience it.

Yeah, can't say I see many of the newer Regals.  More Lacrosses or Veranos.

Are these new cars materially wider and lower?  The new design language makes them look much much lower to the ground than the outgoing models and gives a very sporty look.

Aspect ratio of height to width have been decreasing over the past 5-7 years for many cars.  Heights have decreased a bit and widths have gone up.

Positive direction stylistically, imo.

Except for the rising beltlines and massive increase in bullshit blind spots that shouldn't exist.  No wonder people need cameras in order to not run over their goddamn children.  :rolleyes:

IDK beltlines have been coming down this past model cycle.
