I'm having problems with the look of the rear end of this vehicle - at least from the angle shown in the photo

How does this look?






I know Tesla don't want to be tied to one manufacturer, but I'd be happy to see them team up again on this.

I guess it was designed by Barney Hatt too. I actually prefer the front end styling on the Eagle over the Roadster. Nice looking car.
