To each their own on this matter because styling is a matter of taste. I remember the shift from the '70s style boxy cars to the mid to late '80s rounded style cars. I wasn't a fan of that new style when it came out but it did eventually grow on me.

For me the cybertruck looks like something out of a low budget'70s Sci-Fi movie. Who knows in 10 years maybe it will start to appeal to me but for right now it doesn't.



Nah, it's objectively not good-looking, and in a few years it'll be more obvious. There are probably more than 0 people who still genuinely think the Pontiac Aztek looks good, and they're wrong.


I’ll agree that there are cars that just look bad.

I love my Honda Element, but even I admit it’s not a great looking vehicle.. it’s old enough that it’s no longer sticks out, though easy to find in a parking lot as few cars are shaped that boxy.

62 page pdf about how the design of vehicle came together which is kind of interesting. (Function driving design)

That is not an ugly car, a bit cute looking in my opinion. Truly ugly cars are Aztec and Fiat Multipla. Also Chrysler PT Cruiser.


'Good looking' is a subjective term by definition.

Stop trying to tell people what they should think.


I just appreciate your post because you start objectively incorrectly and just lean further into it (intentionally, I believe).

I laughed, it was worth it.


Looks like a "Death Race 2000" El Camino...


Looks like the DeLorean from the latest Back to the Future video game... with a buggy level-of-detail algorithm.


It looks like 3D on 16 bit / 4th gen consoles. Straight out of StarFox.
