Yeah, I hate the lame marketing spin. I just see tons of internet experts now insisting that the grills need to be that big for adequate cooling. A few examples that come to mind...
"Twin turbos, for no lag" followed by "Twin power turbo" because we did such a good job convincing people they absolutely needed twin turbos but now we want to use a single twin scroll turbo and we're afraid people will feel like they are taking a step back.
The hideous front hood cut line. The justification "They need to do that for pedestrian crash standards". Miraculously the ugly cut line hoods are all going away now. Weird.
We are changing our model designations so sedans are odd numbers and coupes are even. Say hello to all of the even numbered gran coupe sedans and X series also with 4 doors.
