\nNever underestimate the power of a nose job. After getting in hot water with Rolls-Royce<\/a> for the design of its GE limousine, Geely<\/a> Automobile has reworked the majority of the car into what you see above. The Chinese automaker originally unveiled the GE at the 2009 Shanghai Motor Show<\/a>, and the car looked like it had raided the Spirit of Ecstasy’s wardrobe before hitting the stage. The engineers at Rolls-Royce were not amused, and threatened legal action<\/a> unless the car underwent serious alterations.<\/p>\n

Presumably in response to the Rolls dust-up, Geely has fitted the GE Limousine with an all-new nose, complete with a massive baleen grille and grinning headlights. The interior has also gone under the knife, and as a result, you’ll no longer find a single throne in the rear. The company has opted for a much more traditional two-bucket design out back.<\/p>\n

Expect to see the reworked GE at this year’s Beijing Auto Show<\/a>, along with a total of 58 other vehicles(!) from the company’s three brands. <\/p>\n
