With hindsight, it looks nice ! I can see the similarities with the T160 Celica in the design. Unfortunately, Toyota Europe decided that only the top-spec versions could have color-keyed bumpers. My father nearly bought one of these in 1989, but the black plastic bumpers made the car look basic and cheap (ditto with the Corolla and Camry of the same era).

In the end, we stayed with Mitsubishi and the 1989-92 Galant was probably the best built car we ever had.
