Saving the new 7

Ever since this new 7 came out I always kind of had an idea on how to save it’s front end. What do you guys think of it?

I think I get what you’re going for but to me the 7 is a mix of luxury and sport and this version is all sport/aggressiveness. I agree with mattsrs, in black it looks awesome the way it is.

I feel it only looks good in black as black hides the most features, Espicially hides that wonky front end plastic and absurd grille size.

I don’t really know, the previous 7 you could look at in any color and appreciate it’s sporty but luxurious look, this new one only gets a pass in black as you can’t really see what it looks like beneath all that darkness.

I meant the headlights in the photoshopped picture. I like how the 7 looks, that’s why I bought one

I don't Think the new 7 needs to be saved lol, I get compliments all the time from random people on the car , and I don't recall this happening before even though I owned previously the S class , 5 series , 6 series, Cadillac .

I completely agree. Most of the comments I get from my car are about the inside and if they say anything about the outside, it is always how great the front end looks. Most people love how aggressive it is.

Granted, they are usually much younger than myself.

Amazing- it’s what I want! Simplicity and beauty; I’d rock the 7 looking like this…
