The grudge isnt isolated to it's design as a car; that, taken out of context, can sound strange, since it really is a sweet looking car. BUT, to most of the hard-core DSM crowd, it's design thesis simply didn't draw from Eclipses of the past; it's design heritage was ignored. That's what they tried to correct in the 4G: the sharp quarter panel rear window, the chunky rear bumper, etc, drawing on design elements of the popular 2Gs.
