Extremly ugly rear + bad proportions.

Neat car, i like it. It will give Peugeot 307cc and Renault Megane Coupe/Cabrio a run for their money!

All of these cars have rear ends that are too big - obviously as a result of the metal roof - but it still doesn't look good.

This car has a terrible rear end!

Bad proportions, it's sad cause the concept was beautiful even with a two part roof, Eos is much more coherent.

Yeah, the two-part roof of the Eos keeps its size down. I think the new Volvo C70 also has a multipart roof. The Focus CC has unfortunately been cursed with a huge butt thanks to the need for a large boot.

However, apart from that (and those weird foglight 'tubes') it looks pretty cool.

Ugh. From any rear or side angle it looks badly proportioned. Maybe unless the roof is down.

Too bad, what a waste of an opportunity. Bring on the 3-part folding roofs for anything that seats more than 2 people.

Based on the initial pics, I though the weirdness was from the angle of the shot... but I was wrong. When it's up, the car looks weird.... but it looks pretty good with the roof down.
