all cars are ugly these days, it's true. the ones that try to be the most stylish seem to end up being the ugliest.

what's with stage platform grills, is that a wind tunnel thing too i wonder? all new cars look like flash websites basically.
dodge magnums are pretty ugly but i secretly shamefully kind of like them.

its not just windtunnels its the technology to easily make car bodies into any old shape that has really just given designers way too many option

The AMC Eagle was a fun car to drive.
I didn't have any luck finding the right model online, but my first car was a silver 1983 Relient K Car SE Station Wagon. With beautiful creamish clothe interiors. Hideous inside and out and an utterly crap car to drive.

if you live in western mass long enough you will wear keene shoes and you will drive a subaru. its creeps up on you...
― scott seward, Saturday, 22 September 2012 20:45 (thirteen years ago)
don't know why keene and subaru haven't done cross-promotion yet.
Saab was acquired by GM but didn't want to work within GM's budget constraints, so GM said "oh yeah? well fuck you."
Clarkson and May had a bittersweet goodbye to Saab on a Top Gear segment last year, and quoted someone saying something like "nobody knows why Saabs cost so much until they crash one."
