I just don't like the looks of this direction...I mean, who do they want to be? VW?

Just stick with what got you here--the formula has worked for a long time...add in all the wonderful new technology and engineering you want, but keeping the overall message and focus the same...but you start going in this direction and plenty of people will get turned off...
