It's a good looking car. It's not nearly as different looking as I thought the new-rules cars would be. Maybe it's just the angles they show in the video.

Here you can compare:

Very similar. 

Going with the matte paint job though.  I'm not a fan, but maybe I'm just getting old...

I'm not a fan either. Always looks like they forgot the finish coat.

I thought they'd just put the decals on over the primer.  ;)

I don't know if it's just a fluke of the photos but the engine air intake above the driver looks much larger. I think I like the look of the lower rear wing.

The intake is larger, Williams is following Mercedes here. Last year Merc enlarged their intake compared to 2015.
