New IS300 Sportcross -- 9-3 killer or too ugly?

Well, I thought that the IS300 might give the 9-3 some serious competition. However, I personally cannot take its looks. See the Edmund review below to decide for yourself. Apparently, 5-spoke, Viggen-like wheels are in style. Also, what's the deal with the clear lenses for the rear? Lexus has gone to this on every vehicle, and I think they are hideous. I'd love to have Lexus quality (although I must admit that my 9-3 has has no problems other than squeeks and a recalcitrant tranny that will hopefully be fixed), but they need to hire a different designer for me to like them.
