I like it more than the current model, and a weight loss despite an increased footprint isn't a bad thing. The rear 3/4 view is actually the best part IMO, especially shoulder line and the Juke-inspired taillights. Though it does follow the Evoque's lead of a letterbox in place of a proper rear window...
this looks MUCH better than the current and previous models, good job Nissan !. I expect them to keep up the good work when they're designing the new GTR
