even with that potato-ass photo at low resolution, you can still see the warping of the body panels. what a pile of shit.

[–] JayTwo@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

There's a perfectly good reason why panels are curved on almost every other modern production automobile ever.

I don't even know what good cars look like but by god that thing is ugly.

It's even worse in person.

the look doesn't even matter, it's just garbage functionally

I assure you that people all screaming in unison "this car is shit lol" is not providing advertising of the vehicle to anyone. Its only selling point is as a status symbol but the clear status it gives to anyone that owns it is "lol this person is a fucking idiot". This status completely cripples its sales potential and is driven by people posting about it and ridiculing it.

The last thing anyone trying to sell a status symbol wants is for the symbol it represents to be complete fucking idiocy.
