True! I really didn't like the look of the current Astra when I first saw the "concept" pix either. Gradually grew on me the more pix I saw. Then saw my first one in the metal and really didn't like it . . . again! Now I'm starting to warm to the total change in styling direction from the G to the H, specially the Coupe.
The biggest problem I have with current styling trends is the designers/manufacturers make their entire range look so similar (but, of course, in the most part the components are NOT interchangeable, adding to our expense come repair time). Opel Corsa, Astra, Vectra, Zafira , etc. all have similar styling lines, with Commodore picking up on the "GM styling theme" as well.
Ford are the same with Fiesta, Focus, Mondeo and probably the next model Falcon following the same theme. Peugeot, Mazda are just 2 more manufacturers that carry the "corporate/brand" front and rear styling to extremes.
Goes even further: For the man-in-the-street, at a glance try picking the different models of exotics such as Aston Martin, Rolls Royce, Porsche, etc. They make it bloody hard to tell whats what.
Old enough to know better . . . Too old to care!
