The only image available of the new C151A trains, though going by the colour scheme it should be highly likely its just a sample image and not a glimpse at the design of the final thing right?
It just looks like a C751B with bad colours.

You are totally correct
-
That's one hell of an colour for a train. It looks so ugly and hopefully this is not for the real thing...
-
What a spooky colour, thought it was supposed to be similar to C151 since just an "A" was added. :P

The front looks like C751B and the train is ugly with red livery.

I hope they add some forward/backward facing seats at the end of each car for the elderly as some may not like sitting sideways. Something like HK MTR's Metro Cammell EMUs. And of course, no more bar trains, please.

Nope, it's rather common in other countries. No need to go far, Malaysia's KTM Komuter have some trainsets that have this kind of seating configurations.
Configuration is [DOOR] <side-facing> <forward> <backward> <side-facing> <forward> <backward> <side-facing>[DOOR]
Of course, with the "Please move in to the centre of the car" thing, it's impossible to have this in the centre of the car. So, since the gangway is already narrow, the forward/backward* facing seats won't affect the flow of passengers too much.
*To avoid confusion, the seating direction depends on the direction of travel of the train. It is just 1 pair of seats, not 2 pairs leaning against each other. Hence, only the layout is changed and not the total number of seats.

I hope it is not the final design since the colour scheme is obviously wrong. Also it looks horrible like a C751B with enlarged headlights at the wrong position, gives a weird and creepy look overall to me.
-
How i wish they call it as C451 trains since it is the 4th Gen train instead of duplicating C151 again, if not it will act as a CLONE

It's definitely ugly looking, but well SMRT might just want this colour since it's red and white, the colours for singapore. It looks more like a combo of C151 and C751...

You really have the right sense man! SMRT should have just said it is a C751B with weird paintworks.
