Default people love angry looking cars

Does the Crossfire look angry? I certainly think that cars should not look like girly cushions. A lot of the happy, rounded cars don’t say "this will hurt if it hits you" - which is something I think that cars really should. Even if they are designed to minimise human damage on a collision, I still think they should look scary.

Truly agreed with most of whats stated in "Science".
Though am not at the point of selling it.
I prefer to say, my crossfire looks confident.
And while on the road, the driver in the car next to me will think my crossfire looks intimidating.

I guess it could look "angry", but it is definitely "unique".

My Crossfire is very happy!
Muscular, elegant and aggressive describe the Crossfire in my book. It's a beautiful car.... not angry looking at all.

I've been told by several people who attended the Tail of the Dragon last fall that my car looked VERY intimidating when ever they saw it closing down on them in their review mirrors.
People in the passing lane on the highways tend to move out of my way much quicker when I'm driving the Crossfire than they do when I'm in my Honda Civic.
Intimidation, works at traffic lights too. Since I've installed my new hood, I've backed down a Mustang GT, Porsche Boxter, and a S2k, simply because they didn't have a "clue" what I was packin.
You be the judge?

I agree with this statement, very well put. Funny, I would describe a Porsche 911 using the same statement. Maybe that is why I'm so attracted to the Crossfire!
