Huh. I actually saw one for the first time in person yesterday too. On the way back from a camping trip, in a little village surrounded by corn fields.
It really i the ugliest car I've ever seen. Including the car Homer designed in the Simpsons.
Couple of weeks ago I saw several, all parked next to each other, in a parking lot. Assumed it was some car club, or people going to some car event. Anyway, seeing them all lined-up like that, made me realize just how out of place they looked. They looked fake, like mock-ups, or something. It was weird. I have seen a lot of very highly stylized cars, lots of specialty vehicles designed for industrial, and military, use and never have I gotten that vibe. The only other time I got the same feeling was when one of the Nolan batman movies was being filmed near where I worked, and they had the "bat" vehicles parked in a private lot I passed, on my way to work. Getting to see them up close, and in person, really made it clear that they were fake vehicles, that required distance, and editing/cgi, to look real.
Homer's car was pretty cool...
I agree on all points but the shag carpet.
It's never a good idea, or cool, unless it's The Mystery Van.
I will respect your choice to put it places, though.
Like, zoinks! That’s just, like, your take on it, man!
You do bring up a valid point.
Shag carpets are acceptable as long as they really tie the room together.
