Why not get both?
It does look awesome and might get a a 12-year-old's attention more than the 14th new scale representation of a 737. That's the point I guess - it's to planes what a Hot Wheels special is to cars.
After the apocalype, I'd probably set my Kia on fire on the side of the road, as a burning commuter car would be a great contribution to the vibe of an entirely fucked up world. That'd also be a great way to reduce its fuel consumption and improve the looks. I wouldn't engage in close combat on a speeding fuel truck…
It has an analog clock in the dashboard, so it can't be that bad.
I've never heard of this car before, and now I like it. It's some kind of under-the-rader power pack that doesn't cost much. I don't think people will get jealous over this, that's a good thing.
I've always thought of the elderly IV platform as superior to the V.
There are no difficulties driving a Mercedes, as you can see.
As I didn't ever need more room in my car than a sedan has to offer, I disagree. It's the same usability to me, just in better shape.
This is a beautiful car. I really like the sedan.
The little plastic triangle looks like it was added in an afterthought.
I would just prefer a car that doesn't look like a hunchback. The sedan is quite handsome.
Looks fantastic. I might like that car, and Mercedes can go suck on their CLA.
Cars in the US are really tested for safety when not wearing a seatbelt? WTF?
I just have an answer to a slightly different question: infected car enthusiasts choose good first cars. Mine was rather slow (my mother liked that), very comfortable (my friends liked that) and had a fantastic hydropneumatic toy (everyone was afraid of that). It caught on with me so well that I wanted to understand…
Maybe I'm weird, I do quite like it... Would choose this body over a hatchback anytime. This for the whole Ford lineup.
Having driven various three-door for some days, I found the large doors problematic as people would park to me as close as ever (European parking lots). Five-doors need less lateral space to get in and out, and it's easier to reach the seatbelt behind me if the B-pillar isn't half a mile away from the driver's seat.
This sort of things happen when you artificially impair the available technology because it makes racing more interesting. Currently Formula 1 is show, and nothing but show, dominated by an old man who wants the whole world to watch his circus, no matter the cost.
