Why can't they make one that looks good?! I mean that one isn't the worst of the bunch but still, maybe if they just made it look like a regular sleek sporty car then there would be more demand.
It looks a lot like a Civic, which is a nice looking car, IMO. If they're trying to appeal to the masses with the look of it, I think they did a good job .

Ever notice that the design of, many but not all, cars the last couple of decades has to be a "Bubble" or a "Wedge" ?????
We are told that Areo-Dynamics are needed for better gas miliage. This is absolutely untrue, because I've got two friends who back in 1979 & 1980 developed crude modifications to the carborater on a 1970s Tuna Boat sized Cadillac and a 1969 1 1/2 Ton GMC flatbed truck. The Caddy got 100+ mpg and the GMC truck about 70+ mpg.
Both have refused to pursue the inventions. The friend with the Caddy sent in his invention idea to the Jimmy Carter program called, "Send the Government you idea for Saving Energy" . When they could'nt help him with Grant Money, he took it out on his own and was contacted to back off pursuing it. It spooked him and both he and Bob my other friend have never tried to do anything since. I've spoken to them since about it with regard to this present bogus energy crisi and they still want nothing to do with pursuing it.
I would'nt have believed this either if it were'nt for the fact I saw their funny looking modifications and experienced driving with them. The point is, if these rookie inexperienced machinists could figure this out, then certainly all those employed college educated Rocket Science Engineers the Auto-Industry Giant's have on staff certainly know what to do it and better. It's all about the big coin!
Anymore it's hard for me to get excited on these Latest Car technology threads knowing what I know.
