“Tadek Marek, a company engineer back in the 1950s and 1960s”

The proportions of the front downward curve of the hood and headlights looks off to me. I think the headlights should be taller. 

maybe i missed it, but this didn’t really tell me what an offset actually is or does.

It’s such a shame Nikola Tesla didn’t have a middle name. No more electric vehicle companies allowed, sorry.

Even now, it still looks as though it’s wearing the trunk lid from a different car.

I have been excited about a Yaris twice in my life now.

There had been retro cars before, but the 2005 Mustang is the one that made the whole thing feel somehow validated.

You hear that, baby? You’re collectible now!

For anyone who disagrees, you have bad taste.

There are a few that easily take the cake (Silverado HD, Cybertruck, new Tahoe, X7, Mach E), but I’d like everyone to not forget about this fucking mess of a design. It’s the equivalent of a shitty mcmansion in car-form.

“What if Lotus, but also Viper, and also EV?"

And this was while Ghosn was at the helm

Setting aside the PS1 design ethic, there’s a more obvious problem that I’ve not seen anyone address. The Whole Vehicle Type Approval system, the NHTSA and Euro-NCAP will never certify that truck with the exterior design it has right now. There are force limits for pedestrian impacts, and that front light bar / hood…

I think they’ll eventually hammer out the details.

I also vibrate like crazy with mechanical stimulus

Extremely. It’s also cryo formed (very cold rolled) austenitic stainless, which is not the same stainless sheet you would buy from your typical metal supplier or mill. There are also almost certainly special welding procedures associated with it as to not ruin the grain structure or cause heat deformation. This will…

It looks upset with you because you ate the last slice of pizza. 

It could be worse, uh huh.

Fuck, that LFA is nice.
