i definitely agree - the four singles have a much more agressive visual statement when you consider the overall front-end design layout. looking over the "99 and 900 The Complete Story" by Lance Cole, it sounds like Sexton Sason had originally designed the front end w/ the two single euro-style headlights in mind, but US safety regulations required the alternate style, which i think hints at the inspiration he took from alfa romeo (amongst others) in part for the lines of the 99.
