I hate to admit it, but that paint job upgrades it from "Ugly as all fuck" to "pretty ugly"

going with a triangle low-poly pattern is probably the only thing that can make the shape of the car make any sort of sense, i've never understood how the flat bare metal look is supposed to be appealing

yeah, at best it's edgy. not in a culturally significant or stylistically way, it's just geometry. it's all fucking edges. it looks like the car a 3 year old would draw.

tesla, you had such potential.

the delorian had a similar metal look and was unique at the time, and there are still hardly any vehicles that do anything other than boring paint for the exterior. Where's the cast iron exterior vehicles that need to be seasoned regularly, what about bare aluminum or bismuth? why do all modern cars follow the same stupid aerodynamic shapes with silly crumple zones and overpriced paint. I say yes to unnovation and yes to rejecting the status quo.

oh I have absolutely no doubt that musk was railing ketamine one day and found BTTF on and said: you know, we could steal this....

stainless steel this lololol....

love the idea of cast iron cars, babe, it's not rust, it's seasoning :D

They sell it to you like a Warhammer figure, you gotta paint it yourself

It's just mimicking dazzle camo.

You don't REALLY think it's been upgraded, the camo just tricks your brain into thinking it does...

Now this guy won't have to fear getting hit by a WWI-era torpedo anymore. Tesla owner 1, Kaiserliche Marine 0!

It's hilarious how many I see that are wrapped - the wrapped ones far outnumber unwrapped. Why did you pay so much for a stainless steel truck just to wrap it? If everyone is wrapping them, why bother with the heavy stainless steel?

I saw a meme the other day with one that was wrapped to look like an F-150. ... just....why? You can buy an electric F-150 if that's what you want.

My condolences, that You actually have to look at them irl. As a European I am blessed with never having to see them.

[–] limelight79@lemm.ee 1 points 4 days ago

Must be nice. I saw two on my commute home from work today, in fact.

Hard disagree that basic silver is a worse color. How many csgo skins do you own lol

[–] ArchRecord@lemm.ee 8 points 5 days ago

In my opinion, the basic color looks like it's been built with random scrap metal. (not far from the truth tbf) When it has paint or a wrap on it, at least it looks like some effort or quality was put into it.

[–] Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 days ago

IMO that makes it look even worse lol
