I find the older Australian stuff slightly uncanny, because it looks almost but not quite like the UK equivalent much of the time.

Is that not a Monte Carlo? Wistful of Dollars posted:A cool car is a car you think is cool, not what someone else tells you is cool. It's this kind of spurious logic that leads to PT Cruiser car clubs. The GNX is cool because a majority of us are saying it's cool, so it's cool and everyone else is wrong.

I missed GNX chat, so i'll leave this here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzzK2q53Zbs One of the few movies I bought with no hesitation. It really is a super cool story behind the car.

Conversely, one day they could be the reason you're stopped at a stoplight completely surrounded by PT Cruisers with fake wood paneling and flame decals. Preoptopus posted:G Body is a G body. As someone who has deep affection for Monte Carlos I do not accept this. They are both cool and good but should not be conflated. They're each their own kind of similar but unique cool.

Terrible car poo poo: A coworker mentioned to me that when his wife takes their dog in her Q7, she fills the cup holders with kibble and water and let's the thing go hog wild. I haven't seen the car, but he said it's worse than I probably think.

What a phenomenally bad rear end looking car. You know in Battlestar Galactica when they show the scenes inside human cities and they used Citroen DSs to be the vaguely-familiar-but-classically future aesthetic vehicles around? I always thought the Toyota Crown Wagon from the early 70s was a car just like that. Turns out they actually sold these in the US for a couple years but they sold poorly, turns out that they might have been a bit ahead of the times with it's neato future design. I don't even know if they are any good but gosh I think they look gorgeous.

I always thought the Toyota Crown Wagon from the early 70s was a car just like that. Guy in Japan, possibly Noriyaro, did a video on a Japanese custom car show, and there was at least one of those done in a Kustom style that was incredibly sweet, as I recall. They are definitely neat looking. Some wider wheels and tires that fill out the fenders (why were Japanese cars of the era always seemingly built for 8" wide wheels, but sold with skinniy poo poo?) would make it perfect.

G bodies and Fox bodies are incredibly ugly cars that you retards keep wrapped in the nostalgia of your youth and that's the only reason anyone is interested in them. The 80s(and 90s, and early 2000s) were a terrible time for American car styling.

um excuse me posted:Is the consensus for ugliest car still the Multipla? It sure is ugly but you can take that and spin it into 'man the Multipla is cool' because it's so ugly and do it ironically. Styling is super objective and multiple people out there are convinced that the PT Cruiser is a gorgeous car. Or my wife's boss from 10 years ago that said "What a beautiful car" about a goddamn Pontiac G6. Or the older man that told a friend of ours that his Dodge Nitro was great looking car.

Took me a second to grok what the gently caress was going on until I realized that was looking almost directly perpendicular to the car, just with the wheel at full lock. That shock placement is loving rad.
