When they first posted what the new scorpion was going to look like, it had overwhelming support from a good portion of the playerbase. This was reflected both on the forums as well as on third party sites.
When they initially posted the images of it prior to the change, most people drooled.
It was bad enough that in the days leading up to the patch, pretty much every scorpion hull ship shot up in price due to the fact that so many people suddenly wanted one. Hell I sold my rattlesnake at a 30% profit from what I had paid for it less than a month prior. And even then the person I sold it to refused to fly it until AFTER the patch because he hated the way the ship looked. Keep in mind that I'm not agreeing with that logic, but simply using it to get a point across.
All opinions are welcome on the forums, but I have to agree with what others have stated in terms of there may not be much support for your viewpoint in this particular case.
Personally, I like the new Scorpion. I didn't however hate the old model nor did I like it much.... It is true that it had an interesting look to it I admit.

i don't ask for a whole race of symmetric ships but CCP interest leans to do that (ferox pre trinity wasn't symmetric but it is now..)
As little as it's flown, and as long ago as that was, I'm surprised to see this brought up. The Ferox had that one goofy wing stub that didn't match 
Well seeing as it was our only Caldari battle cruiser for quite some time, those of us who flew it have had that goofy stub burned into our memory until the end of days.
If you remember, they added the Rohk and the drake in the same patch... Both seemed so out of place in terms of the look and feel of the models when compared to the ships that had already been in-game prior to that.

Please fix the Aeon. Its the ugly step sister of the SC's.
Well as long as you ONLY keep one side of the ship towards you and visible, it looks great!

Old scorpion looks AWFUL:
It has the stinging tail and the weird lopsided stump thing.
It looks like a child's first experiment with LEGO.
It has the defining essence of Caldari, that is fugly, ugly, and butt-fugly
It has the abstraction of a bad acid trip
FYP
Nah... I'm pretty sure a kid with legos could do a much better job than the old scorp model.
