The design is ok... it's growing on me. For some reason it reminds me of a Porsche Panamera, especially the rear half. Its not a strike out but its defiantly not a home run. I do have a better visceral reaction to the Simon design.
Hind sight is always 50/50 but reading into the SU article, perhaps VM would have been better off going with the Simon design as soon as he got control of the company as he likely would have been able to get it into production much faster and it would have had a family look to the ng9-5 for a coherent lineup... then worked on the Phoenix as the replacement design language for the whole line. Maybe introduce the design language with a new Sonnet.
