Picture. Better belt line, but worst lower volumes. So, not good yet

That belt line looks better now as well as the hip angle, with no visible banana shape on both ends of the sample.
But the lower sculpted line is now problematic, not straight at all and tense like it should be. The result is as bad looking as the second sample.
Unfortunately, this is not good for final production yet

And, again, it's good to correct. GLM listens, tries to do the right thing. But now the other goal will be to bring a model as nice as the corrected sample, not a final product that is worst, like we've seen lately....

That "Coke bottle" shaping came on many sporty cars -- but not a 68 Cadillac.

Kudos that they keep trying. More than some others have done.
