    Yeah it's picture put together back when the Gen 3 rumours were flying around. The side mirrors are from the Gen 2 and you can see some Gen 2 hints (headlights and foglight placement) but they were pretty close with the "aero corners"

    Tideland is correct, that is the same photoshop pic tossed around sometime in 2008 for the 3rd gen. The reveal was mid January '09 in Detroit. Actually there was a video that went around with the Blue Man Group in about November / December 2008, so we got to see the 3rd gen before it was officially revealed. Who remembers that?

    Then after January, buyers had to wait n wait until they finally arrived late May of 2009. Ran down and test drove one about the first day it arrived. I'm sure glad to have one. It's a substantial improvement over the 2nd gen.
