    Somehow it looks to me as though the front side looks little bit aggressive, but the rear end is just plain elegant. I wish they have done something to make the front and rear look equally and just a little bit more aggressive.

    P.S.: Not as catchy as a BMW M3. You know an M3 when you see it from any side - aggressive!!

    The Skoda vs Volkswagon similar design is getting boring.

    There's another car like that - Skoda Rapid vs the Volkswagon Vento. You can easily differentiate without looking at the front side. The Skoda Superb shows the likes of a Volkswagon Passat.
    Are you sure? This action cannot be undone.
