Re: Spied: Insignia Fastback
I still would prefer the sedan version, but it's such a gorgeous car. July 4th unveil coming up!!

Re: Spied: Insignia Fastback
I like it! I am a hatchback fan though. But here's another GM car with the awkward mirror syndrome.
NOTE TO GM: Put some real, usable mirrors on your cars. Styling is lame when it comes to something as important as a side view mirrors.

Re: Spied: Insignia Fastback
Yes, they "work" fine. It's not until you start driving other cars that you realize there's a chunk of missing mirror.

Re: Spied: Insignia Fastback
the rear end has way too many things going on, but the overall shape is gorgeous

Re: Spied: Insignia Fastback
Beautiful profile, though that high hood mandated by the EU removes some of the grace. I don't see what is wrong with the mirrors......

Re: Spied: Insignia Fastback
What's with the stupid rear wiper? It looks like crap on there. And I never understood that. Minivans, SUVs, ok w/e, but a fast back like that.
3rd gen Firebirds never had it. Why does a fastback hatch like that need it? Ever heard of Rain-X? That stuff is tha bomb!

Re: Spied: Insignia Fastback
That looks great! If that hits the states with any badge on it, I will consider it for my next ride.
