The duke has that same ugly bulbous thing that the curvy sv has lol, I wonder if there's a correlation between love/hate of the 2 vehicles *ducks*

And before you say it, my Rocket isn't meant to be pretty, it's ugly and mean :P

Exclamation Re: WTF where they thinking?

Hey I loved the look of my curvy.
I would have had another Juke 1.6 Dig-t in a heartbeat.
It's a massive fun car.
Looking forward to seeing the Pulsar Dig-t

Thing of beauty the curvy. Built during Suzuki's 1960s bubblegum phase.

It's Juke not Duke. The bulbous things are LED side lights and indicators.
