For those that "dislike" the Tribeca snout, perhaps this is a good sign.
The R2 minicar was, IIRC, one of the first to sport the trademark snout and tomorrow, the TypeS will be launched in Japan *minus* the snout!

Although the R1 TypeS still has the snout, it looks quite nice and aggresive with Type S treatment.

Seems like Mitsubishi also ditched their "pig nose" design. Both new Outlander and facelifted 06 Lancer received a much pleasing grille than the "pig nose".

I saw a B9 the other day, and I didn't do a double take.  Am I becomming immune to it's face?  As much as I think I wouldn't want Subaru's new airplane grille in my driveway, I think it's design is growing on me.
