I’ll start with the Porsche 997, the 996 looked alright imo, but it looks “like a 90s Porsche”, the 997 made it look sleeker and more modern. Still looks good today.
As for cars that looked worse after a facelift? Maybe the facelifted 6th gen Camaro? The 6th gen looked great pre-facelift, but they did something weird with the headlights and now it looks so-so…
haha. they took them Mitsubishi Galant lambda Coop and tried to rebrand it. it’s not even a redesign it’s an entire different vehicle with the badge slapped on.
I kind of meant it as a joke because it’s often regarded as one of the top 10 mistakes in Automotive History.
